Let’s be real: inflation is a major bummer. Our favourite designer perfumes cost millions (or at least it feels like they do), and we find ourselves savouring every last drop because we dread having to replace them. Even though we have local alternatives, most people wonder about the value – if the scent will last, if there will be enough variety to find the scent which represents us best. The truth is that local options are just as good as their international counterparts. We became researchers for this article, and personally tried every last perfume to ensure they were exactly what you would expect – and luckily, at a quarter of the price of our international designer perfumes. If you’ve been looking for a signature scent then we’ve got you covered – read below for fragrance options for every kind of girl.
She’s The Boss: Bold and Adventurous
This unisex scent combines the best of citric notes like apple and orange blossom, and mingles them with sweet cinnamon and a contrasting leather, wood, and saffron to create an intoxicatingly powerful scent.
She’s Not Like Other Girls: Sweet and Smoky
This Raspberry Oud Perfume by Saey Fragrances is smoky, musky, and sweet – combining fruity berry notes with a heady darkness.

She’s Divinely Feminine: A Classic Scent
There’s nothing more classic than a jasmine scent. It somehow combines nostalgia, femininity, and a classic elegance which can’t be matched – and this option by Colish stands out for us.

She Likes To Go Out: Sweet, Flirty, Fun
This is the kind of perfume that makes you stop in your tracks and wonder.. who is that? It’s perfectly sweet, with a caramel depth, and underlying floral notes that lift everything and make it a scent which can go from day to night.

She’s Always on Holiday: Light and Breezy
This oceanic scent is for the island girl in you: the one who likes to adventure, laze on the beach, and always be ready to go. It’s not musky or heavy, but light, citric, and fresh.
