I decided to at least try and have one post up for today since I have orientation for work at 2pm until 8pm and since I'm up and wide awake, why not do another perfume haul. I did my first perfume haul on Thursday which I was shocked because my post helped a fellow reader out -- brownie points for me -- you can see the first haul here, but this is another haul!
As I stated in the first haul, I've found some new fragrances that are "impressions" of high end perfumes -- or knock-off's as we call them -- but to be inexpensive and impressions they are AMAZING and closely match the real perfume (I've done my research and smelled the real perfumes). I won't be going into depth about each perfume because a review will be coming on each one individually, but let's just get into the haul shall we...
I went back to Pay Half, which seems to be my holy grail store lately, and I picked three more perfumes since they have the ongoing 3 for $10 deal...yes 3 full size bottles that have 3.3 fl oz of product for a total of $10! Since I already had a list of perfumes that I wanted to get I just picked up these three.
The first bottle that I got from Preferred Fragrance is Fabulous...this use to be called Fantastic, but they changed the name for some reason and the box. However, this is the impression of Fantasy by Britney Spears. This is a beautiful fruity floral scented perfume and I can't wait to try it out! It looks just like the real version, the only thing that differs is the name, box and the crystal/rhinestones are missing from this bottle.
Doesn't this remind you of something? If you guessed Viva La Juicy, you guessed correctly! La Vida Loca is the impression of Viva La Juicy by Juicy Couture. I read so many reviews about this perfume and I wanted to give it a try and so...I went and bought it. This perfume is a gourmet floral fragrance with hints of fruitiness to it. PERFECTION!
This last perfume is called Bootylicious -- yes like the Destiny Child's song -- and it's the impression of Apple Bottoms by Nelly. I love the box and the top on the perfume. I do apologize that the image is a bit crappy -- the perfume is just a yellowish tint so it didn't pick up as well as I had hoped since I had flash on. This perfume is a citrus floral scent that I absolutely feel in love with and my boyfriend actually picked this one out for me, so what could go wrong with your man picking a perfume for you?!
Above are all three bottles a little more clearer: Fabulous, La Vida Loca and Bootylicious. I am very happy with this purchase because not only are they great "impressions" and affordable, but they smell delightful! What more can a bargain shopper ask for?
If you want to see a specific review first, just comment below!
Have you tried any of these before?
I have the LA Vida Loco and I wear it more than the actual Juicy Couture I got for my birthday.
ReplyDeleteLOL wow. I can't wait to try it out, but I plan to finish a couple more fragrances first so that I can get rid of those before cracking out the new ones. La Vida Loca is going to the first one I use :) Thanks for your input!
DeleteWow those look so similar to the real perfumes! great deal!

Yes, they definitely do! I have plans to collect a few more because they smell so delightful.
DeleteI just bought "Hottest" the impression of Beyonce's "Heat" fragrance and it smells sooo good,In my opinion better and stronger than the real thing. Also, I purchased "Tattooed" by Inky which is an impression of Ed Hardy's Fragrance that is in the large pink bottle. It smells exactly like the real thing. I just wish the scent lasted longer. Other than that I love them both. I checked out La vida Loca the impression of Viva La juicy and it smells great.
ReplyDeleteI tried hottest and didn't like it... i loveeeee Viva La Juicy & La Vida Loca (have both) and I love the snooki perfume dupe as well. they are some fabulous alternatives and I plan to continue purchasing them from time to time if i don't want to splurge on the real deal.
DeleteHow does "bootilicious" smell?
ReplyDeleteI have yet to open that one up. I'll give it a try next week and let you know :)
Deletebootilicious is the best smelling one, in my opinion !!!!
ReplyDeleteI love it for Spring and Summer as it has a sweet scent to me :)
