Fragrances, like people, are utterly unique, even up to the point that a specific perfume can smell different according to each particular person who wears it. Some scents are so decadent, they can cost the average person a small fortune, especially if you are passionate about collecting. Let us welcome to you to your wallet’s saving grace; inspired-by fragrances.

Inspired by greatness

It’s no secret that high-end perfume designer brands have always been offered at a significant price point and could often be considered an investment, one example is Opium Black by Yves Saint Laurent. In recent years however, even high street brands have become increasingly more expensive, pushing out many fragrance lovers on tighter budgets. With this shift in the niche has come a new wave of perfumers, and the key focus is on replica fragrances that can rival their counterparts with a much more affordable cost (without skimping on quality).

These scents very closely mimic signature scents that are hugely popular with audiences and are sometimes (arguably) even nicer than the original! It really is incredible what can be done to not only replicate, but also build upon fragrances that have been long-time fan favourites. In recent years, there have been many of these types of replica scent companies arising, but one has stuck out among the competition; Dossier

Who are Dossier?

Dossier is a company that makes scents inspired by all the most popular perfumers around the world and brings them to you at quite literally a fraction of the price. One of these is Ambery Vanilla, which is heavily inspired by the incredibly popular, aforementioned Black Opium. As addictive as the scent may be, it takes off with a burst of pear, followed by the floral scents of orange blossom and jasmine which culminate in an intoxicating vanilla and coffee dry down. For the lady gourmand, this is definitely one to pick up! A sweet, dark and seductive perfume for today’s empowered woman; be careful not to get too addicted!

Completely cruelty-free and totally vegan, Dossier hits the mark consistently – some would say even outshining the originals. Regardless, it is very clear to see that the designers behind the curtain know their stuff when it comes to high-end fragrances.
