What is a perfume dupe?

A fragrance created to smell like a designer perfume without being that perfume. It is sold under its own brand name, clearly labelled as inspired by, and is not affiliated with the original brand.

Do perfume dupes last as long as designer fragrances?

Ours do, because concentration matters more than brand. At 20–35% fragrance oil our bottles typically last 8–14 hours on skin, which is at or above most designer eau de parfums.

How much do they cost?

Bottles start from around £20 versus £80–£300 for the designer originals. UK tracked delivery is priced by weight from £3.99.

Can I try before I commit to a full bottle?

Our discovery and gift sets are the cheapest way to sample several scents before buying full size.

Perfume Dupes UK — designer-inspired scents that actually last

A perfume dupe is a fragrance built to smell like a designer scent without the designer markup. Ours are blended at 20–35% fragrance oil — higher than most high-street eau de toilettes — so they last through a working day and into the evening. Everything ships from the UK with tracked delivery.

What makes a good dupe

Three things: oil concentration, accord accuracy and consistency. Cheap dupes cut the oil percentage, which is why they vanish in two hours. We blend at 20–35%, which is eau de parfum to extrait territory, and we keep the formula the same batch to batch so the bottle you reorder smells like the one you loved.

How to pick yours

Start from a designer scent you already wear and look for the inspired-by name on each product page. If you are buying blind, go by family: fresh and citrus for daytime and summer, woody and spicy for the office, amber and gourmand for evenings and winter.

Are perfume dupes legal in the UK?

Yes. Fragrance formulas are not protected by copyright in the UK, so making a scent inspired by another is lawful. What is not lawful is passing a product off as the original. We never do that: every product is clearly labelled as inspired by, sold under our own name, and carries a trademark notice.

Delivery and dispatch

We dispatch within 3–4 working days from our UK base. Tracked delivery is priced by parcel weight from £3.99, so small orders are not subsidising large ones. We ship within the UK only.
