The last time we talked about a perfume that smells expensive with little value of its bottle. This time, will address the topic of budget analogues of luxury perfumes.
The theme is interesting for those who liked expensive flavor, but is not ready to give a few thousand for a small bottle. There exist options on how to save:
- buy in the market or in the transition counterfeiting (very much hope that this option does not take advantage of, God knows what there composition);
- otlivant buy you liked the fragrance 2-5 ml (however, otlivanty provide only popular flavors in the niche fragrance of their very rarely do);
- find budget aroma twin (perfume of another brand, not to be confused with counterfeiting).
Very good at repeating expensive flavor Arabs. It so happens that the budget twin sounds much more interesting and more resistant.
We do not start with a comparison of suites and their clones, and now with the popular flavor.
popular flavor: Dolce & Gabbana L`Imperatrice 3
his twin: Brocard Oksana Robski Casual
Price difference: More than 5 times
On the Empress now many are mad. I enjoy it on the girls to men: simple, fresh and fruity aroma, with notes of watermelon.
However, he has a perfect clone, which is exactly to a tee repeats flavor - Brocard Oksana Robski Casual. And the price for 75 ml - 480 rubles. And the price for 50 ml Empress - 2080 rubles. If they had a bottle of 75 ml, its cost, of course, would exceed 5 times brokardovskogo options. However, a little less stable (enough for 4-5 hours). But I would not say that the Empress resistant ;-)
luxury: Ex Nihilo Fleur Narcotique
his twin: Attar Collection Azora
The difference in value (volume 100 ml): 2.16 times
Let's start with expensive floral scents. fleur Narcotique It does not need, in fact, in the view. He's already 5 years since its appearance on the market won the hearts of all lovers of fine flavors of spring. It is also called perfume "in Russian": gentle, light and at the same time, rich-sounding flavor, but it is worth Mama Do not Cry. Very durable (will last all day on a cold skin) and a moderate trail.
Start sour notes of the Chinese plum (more like apricot), then enter notes of peach and jasmine. The base is warm, with wood accents.
Yes, you can buy otlivant. And you can get acquainted with its twin - Attar Collection Azora, Which entered the market last year. Similar notes, only Arabic style (more saturated and brighter sound).
luxury: Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540
his twin: Noran Perfumes Suzana
The difference in value (volume 70-75 ml): 5.4 times
Moreover, comparing the cost between 70 ml and 75 ml of Baccarat Suzana. to begin with Baccarat: A very sensational flavor, some are dissatisfied because of the smell of medical bandages and iodine, others are fascinated by strawberry and cotton candy (not sugary flavor, namely, "delicious").
Why such mixed reviews about this perfume? The thing is evernile - synthetic substitute for oak moss. It is perceived by each person in different ways: for some it is a mild and sweet flavor, for others - a dry and austere (a reference to vintage aromas), for the rest - medical bandages and iodine. More depends on the concentration evernila at perfume: the more it is, the "horrible" odor. It is worth noting that evernil very stable, as pink acetate. And without it can not do in the creation of luxury chypre compositions and fern.
Baccarat can become for someone a very expensive disappointment, because the price of a bottle of his decent (almost 20 thousand. rubles 70 mL). But its Arabic analogue Noran Perfumes Suzana It is much cheaper. In Susanne hear more pleasant needles. Very stable with a moderate train.
luxury: Tom Ford Lost Cherry
his twin: Attar Collection Khaltat Night
Price difference: More than 3 times (and volume Khaltat Night 2 times)
Very interesting comparison, because the cherry flavor - very interested in the sound, where you can find little cherries in the perfume, and it quickly disappears. If in the same RivGoshe pshiknete on blotter Tom Ford Lost CherryThen you do not have time to get to the house, how it will erode and will not hear anything. Now imagine that in such a scent you give more than 25 thousand. rubles!
But this is Tom "edrit Madre" Ford. Do not overstate the value of its name - not his credo. But in decent twins we Attar Collection appears again. In Khaltat Night as bright, warm and tasty cherries, only more durable and a little spice in the aroma (they're very topic).
luxury: Chanel Cuir de Russie
his twin: Jose Eisenberg So French
Price difference: 3.3 times (volume So French and 1.5 times more)
A little about leather aromas. Cuir de Russie - this tobacco tar Union and the skin in the sound. Very complex in the disclosure of the notes, which is almost impossible to repeat. Actually, Chanel, Dior and Guerlain perfumers very difficult to clone, mastodons perfume market do not hand positions.
However, Jose Eisenberg did almost the impossible - was able to repeat the aroma of Cuir de Russie. Just sounds a bit softer, with a focus on powder. Tar leather and tobacco are captured well in the So French, and not abruptly.
