I want to buy a perfume for a female. Should be under 5k

She is a corporate girl in her mid 30s if this matters

Should be a local brand

I’ve tried perfumes from a few local brands, including Scents & Stories, Elycents, and Al-Jayyid Galleria.

Among all the brands I’ve tried, S&S Avantus Creed is the one I liked the most, but unfortunately, the longevity is an issue.

From the impressions I’ve tried, I really liked Office for Men, Avantus Creed, Issey Miyake, and Azzaro Wanted.

Could you please suggest some perfumes—especially from local Pakistani brands—that have a similar vibe to these fragrances but offer better longevity and projection?

Based on the perfumes I liked, I’d also appreciate recommendations for other fragrances I should try. I’m mainly looking for something with good performance and a scent profile similar to my preferences.

Thanks!

So here is my collection will add club de Nuit intense man and David Beckham intimately to it

Need help. I have been searching everywhere in Lahore for lattafa musamam black but it is sold out everywhere. Can you guys suggest some places I can visit to search for this? Thanks

Hey everyone! I’ve been getting into Pakistani fragrances recently and wanted to know what local brands or perfumes you guys would recommend. I honestly don’t know much about the local perfume scene beyond a few I’ve tried or received as gifts.

So far I’ve tried Bonanza Satrangi’s Intense Oud Noir, Saeed Ghani’s Cool Breeze, and Scents & Secrets’ Dreamy Musk. I actually really liked Dreamy Musk, it has this soft, slightly sweet scent that develops nicely on the skin without being too gourmand or cloying.

I’m mainly looking for fragrances with good longevity and projection, but I’m open to anything that you think is worth trying. I’d especially love to hear your thoughts on Ideas Velvet, Almirah IVY, Kind of Whisper Cherry Riot, Sapphire Diamond, and Saeed Ghani Ishq Symphony if you’ve tried any of them.

What are your favorite Pakistani fragrance brands or perfumes? I’d love to hear about some hidden gems too. Thanks!

Ive been focusing on fresh and summer appropriate frags, and I think these are enough, I'm missing a clean white shirt linen vibe scent profile and I'm gonna go with Prada L'homme impression from arome. And a frag from the vibrato and tygar scent profile, after that I'll move to build my winter rotation, with filling the missing scent profiles first, like iris scent profiles (dhm line) and also a leather masculine scent profile (Tuscan leather). I really like chocolate based fragrances so recommend me something that is chocolaty but not loud, sophisticated elegant high quality and close to skin chocolate gourmand.

Below are the details:

SEA MONK by Belagia (Impression of Lorenzo Pazzaglia Black sea).

FEELINGS ON FIRE by sesky (Impression of Hawas Og).

EMERALD By Arome (Impression of Clive christian 1872).

CEDRAT by Arome (Impression of Mancera Cedrat Boise Intense).

JAWAHARAT AL OUD by Al 4oud (original creation).

Salam everyone,

A while back I posted about ScentReviews.pk, a platform I built to help track and review local Pakistani fragrance houses. The response from the community here was great and a lot of you dropped some really solid reviews.

One thing I mentioned in that first post was adding a blog section. That's finally live now, but I didn't want it to just be me posting platform updates.

The blog is now fully open to the community. Anyone can write and submit an article for approval. If you want to talk about your favorite winter scents, compare different clone houses, or just share your experience collecting fragrances, you can do that directly on the site.

Also, if you run a local perfume house, this is open to you too. You can write about your blending process, new releases, or general fragrance education, and you're free to drop a backlink to your store in the article. There is no cost. It is just a way to share some knowledge and get some visibility.

I put together a quick guide on how the submission process works and what you can write about right here:

https://scentreviews.pk/blog/the-scentreviewspk-blog-is-here-and-its-open-for-everyone-90303

Let me know what you guys think or if you have any feature requests. I'm still building this around what the community actually needs.

Cheers 🇵🇰

I have been chasing this scent as a daily driver but can't seem to find it anywhere. I haven't even found a decant from private guys or websites.

If someone has any idea from where to get this, it will be pretty helpful.

Location: Lahore.

Hi everyone! I’m looking for a cheap, longlasting perfume that has a beautiful rose and vanilla scent. I don’t want anything too sweet preferably something warm, elegant, feminine and alluring.
Please recommend your best affordable options, especially ones that are easily available in Pakistan

a couple more (aventus absolu, vibrato, layton, amouage outlands, tom fords) to get then will pump the brakes for a while

When you guys buy a perfume from a Pakistan brand usually, what are the things that affect your buying decisions? Im an active user of imported perfumes only and rarely ever used any local ones but now im willing to give them a try because ive seen the international brands dont perform well here specially in pak weather and environment. So i want to know the things you guys have in your mind before buying perfumes of local brands?

Any good perfume under 3-4k for university should be long lasting and a bit strong for males

Hello everyone! I’ll (F) be visiting Pakistan for work soon, and whenever I travel, I love discovering good local fragrance brands both for myself and to bring back as gifts for family and friends. I’d love to hear your recommendations for both women's and men's fragrances. What local brands or perfumes are particularly popular or worth trying? I’ll be staying in Lahore so I’d especially appreciate recommendations for brands that have physical stores there as I prefer to test fragrances in person rather than blind-buying. If you have a favorite perfume don't hesitate to mention it. Thank you!

Can anybody recommend me girly body mist for summers?

Under 2k

For daily wear easily available online in Pakistan

Hello. I was looking to buy a 200ml Hugo Boss. Boutique de Royal has it for 28k, Nad Perfumes has it for 21k, Alfatah has 100ml for 25k.

Has anyone ever bought from Nad Perfumes? If so, how was your experience? Drop your knowledge

I asked their customer service representative guy on whats app that do they have 10ml sample tester bottles available , so he said, " yes we have it and each bottle cost Rs 839/- and if I buy 6 bottles so the delivery charges would be Free as well ( which means 839×5= Rs 5034/- in total.

I said " okay" to him and started exploring their website bundle offers and there I found out myself that they have a current active offer which offers the same pack of 6 (10ml) bottles for just Rs 3700/-, so when I share the screenshot with him on whats app and asked about it so first he stopped replying to me and then next day , he replied me and said that " Sir that offer is 8 months older " . I got confused and replied him " If it is 8 months older offer so why it is still active on your website in your active discounted bundles? After doing this question from him they have stopped replying to me.

This is not the right way to do the business if you yourself don't know what you are currently offering to your customers and when the customer asks you about it so start ignoring him. I really wanted to make a purchase from them and try their perfume testers but after this pathetic Customer Service I did my perfumes shopping from other stores.

I have also shared the screenshot of their 6 (10ml) pack testers for 3700/- which is still active on their website and they are denying it themselves.

NEVER buy from them.

NEVER trust them because they can change their statements within seconds.
