Frequently Asked Questions
Are perfume dupes legal in the UK?
Yes — designer-inspired fragrances are legal. The key is that they don’t copy trademarks, branding, or packaging. They’re simply inspired by popular scent styles and profiles.
How long do the scents last?
Longevity varies by skin type and environment, but many people get several hours of wear. For best results, apply to moisturised skin and pulse points.
Do they smell exactly like the originals?
Designer-inspired scents aim to be close in style and profile. Small differences can happen because original formulas use proprietary blends and ingredients.
Which size should I choose?
- 30ml (£9.95): great for regular use or gifting
- 50ml (£14.95): best value if it’s your everyday favourite
