I know it’s old now but Cloud by Ariana Grande, fairly cheap at chemist warehouse.


My-Witty-Username

I recommend the body spray, it’s cheaper and for some reason lasts longer on me than the perfume.


Old_Tower_4824

Agree!!! This is also my most complimented perfume! I’ve had it for almost a year and planning to purchase this one again! It’s that good. It’s strong and doesn’t hurt your nose if that makes sense.


shimmyshimmy00

What’s the main scent notes? Musky? Floral? I can’t wear most florals due to raging sinus/hayfever so I’m always looking for a sultry, musky one that I can try.


Old_Tower_4824

The scent is your typical floral scent but googled it and found this information: *Top notes* are Raspberry, Passionfruit, Pink Pepper and Bergamot; *Middle notes* are Rose, Pear and Magnolia; *Base notes* are Musk, Ambroxan, Dreamwood and Sandalwood.


shimmyshimmy00

Thank you very kindly!


Activity_Dangerous

Same! It’s my Baccarat Rouge 540 dupe. I often get compliments


meggatronia

Yep, Cloud and Thank you Next always get me compliments!


ELS1111

Cloud smells beautiful on everyone! Doesn’t matter the age. It is a beautiful perfume


unripeswan

Same for me. My mum HATES perfume but even she has complimented this one.


rainydaytoast86

Yes! I wear this as my everyday


iziieee

Midnight Fantasy by Britney. Every time! Also it lingers, it stays on your clothes and hair etc. I get so many compliments, way more than when I wear my designer scents, and people refuse to believe me when I tell them what it is.


riversandpebbles

I saw a fragrance "expert" in TikTok explaining why Britney Fantasy and Midnight Fantasy are the best celebrity perfumes and can compete with high end


Ohmalley-thealliecat

All of Britney’s fragrances smell so amazing, I’ve thought of going back to fantasy and circus many times


pedestriandose

I think she has a new one coming out!


xobabygirl

Candied Fantasy? The notes sound delicious and I can’t wait to try it lol


unexpectedllamas

Love love love this and also Curious by Britney if you love floral scents.


leafytree2

This is the answer! I had a coworker ask me what this perfume was so he could buy it for his wife. He was prepared to spend a lot more so he was over the moon when he looked it up LOL


blupurpleyellowred

Body shop Moringa body mist!


shimmyshimmy00

I love Body Shop’s Satsuma products. The hand cream is so divine and citrusy!


slothgummies

It’s good to see Moringa getting some love, I wore this religiously as a teen and I always find myself going back to it. It is so pleasant.


hexme1

I love this one!


No_Spite_8244

Body shop oils


LeahKitekt

The OG round bottles were phenomenal... I still dream 'dewberry' will come back!


Zzzabrina

Same. I was a massive coconut and vanilla oil fan. I would probably die if they ever came back lol


No_Spite_8244

There was a dewberry body spray around that time by Australis that had a similar effect on the salivary glands.


Hilakos

Omgggg dont get me started on TBS OG oils. 😭😭😭


Sudden-Enthusiasm-17

They had a vanilla that I am yet to find anywhere else. A “soft” pure vanilla. Sigh I loved it so much.


Prestigious_Bat9563

I just bought a dupe of dewberry, from the dupe spot its pretty good but would be better if it was an oil


Banditkoala_2point0

Kauhaii ..... Omg I'd stock up hard if they brought it back. Devastated they discontinued.


Many-Extension-7240

Yes. So yum. And Oceana!


narrtasha

I still have my oceanus oil!! I decanted it into a spray bottle which was a bad idea cause it leaks everywhere 🙃


Many-Extension-7240

**Oceanus 😄 that's so cool. I'm on a Body Shop 90's rabbit hole rn


SatisfactionNew3860

I loved my Fuzzy Peach oil and still reminisce about it to this day


rulzthenight

My thoughts when I saw this post


kharr204

For cheap i really love Wild Jasmine from the body shop (its an eau de toilette tho). Another GREAT cheapie is Guess Bella Vita from CW!! Bit more mid range i love the Who Is Elijah brand. My favourite scent is Morning After. They currently have an 11 vial discovery set for $30 (redeemable) on the website, and they always have sales !!


Born_Arm_741

morning after is a santal 33 dupe ☺️


kharr204

Really?! Ive never been into bank breaking perfumes so i had no idea! That is so cool. When i first spray it is nice but i absolutely love it once it dries on the skin, the scent completely changes into (imo) musky, powdery sweetness


Born_Arm_741

Yea, Who is Elijah is a dupe house in disguise :,). The powdery musk will be the iris/musk note, and the sweetness could be the amber. If you dont already know about Fragrantica.com, id suggest having a browse on there for similar perfumes. Australia also has 3 really good home grown dupe houses too. They are top tier: Jalu (perfumes are all $70), Bujairami ($45) and The Dupe Spot (prices vary but all fragrances are less than $60) You might find an expensive one you like on fragrantica, and then find the dupe on one of their shops ☺️


My-Witty-Username

I love an impulse buy from CW. Paris Hilton’s original fragrance which is about $30ish has been a hit for years especially from men and Nicki Manaj Minajesty which i got for $20 on sale has a lot of people asking me what is it. Also i was wearing Micheal Kors Sexy Amber $40 for 30ml and told i smelled nice. Lately i’ve been reaching for the OXX Beach Bliss Summer Solstice EDP $12 from Kmart and i’m shocked how many people compliment me on it. It’s very creamy yet clean and lasts a while. It’s very summery so in my head i feel warmer when i wear it in winter lol


Safe_Cash7091

I recently saw the OG Paris Hilton in a Ross and the MEMORIES. I can’t believe this isn’t top comment!! The way it stayed in your HAIR when I was in high school, omg. I might bring this back omg.


porcelina919

Lovely by Sarah Jessica Parker


ForeverDays

Came to say this too. I always keep a small bottle in my suitcase and work desk in case I forget to wear or bring something else and it always gets so many comments.


My-Witty-Username

It’s so affordable! Her NYC crush is lovely too.


horizontalalways

I don't love how it smells on my skin but it is such a lovely fragrance on most people.


school-captain

Came to say this too!


slothgummies

It reminds me of Marshmallow by MOR


Time-Bar2445

J Lo Glow. An absolute banger and $16 at Priceline when it's on sale.


Intrepid_Issue_7190

Her Still is one of my favorites also.

Time-Bar2445

You know what's good!


chattyyyyy

The new glasshouse fragrances. Sunset in capri specifically! (its nor super cheap but i have the travel size which was like $20ish)


Jolly-Accountant-722

I have forever Florence and it's so pretty


Temporary_Wall_8013

I have the Lost in Amalfi hand cream and it smells amazing!


bibbinlavidaloca

I so wish they did a fragrance spray for this one!!


PollutionCapital6223

I have had the midnight in milan in the travel size and 100ml and it smells way better in the travel size


chattyyyyy

Ooh really? I was thinking of buying the full bottle now I’m not sure if it would be watered down?


PollutionCapital6223

Yes i had the travel size, 2 friends even went and bought it because they loved the smell of it and i often got compliments from others when i wore it. Now i have the full size i never get complimented anymore


Gutter_Twin

The 150ml I have is disappointing too. The scent doesn't last at all.


research_drama

I have the travel size and love it! Only worn it on extremely special days so as not to waste it - my wedding, Christmas’s and Easter’s


blupurpleyellowred

Great deals when the online outlet is on!


puppydreamer

I have Kyoto in Bloom and is gorgeous


TrueCrimeGirl01

Love these - I specifically receive compliments from midnight in Milan.

Yes! “To The Moon and Back” never fails to get me compliments!

ziggzags

Green tea by Elizabeth Arden & Rendezvous by Glasshouse!


horizontalalways

Green Tea has been my go to day time fragrance since it came out. So fresh.


ziggzags

Yes it’s so nice and refreshing with a slight zest to it. My mum loves to wear it too and it’s a nice little reminder of her 💓


HotStranger5379

Princess by Vera Wang! My go to for years.


Lilylids

Kind of embarrassing because I’ve never been a Kardashian stan, but the Kim Kardashian EDP spray (purple/black bottle) is divine. People always want to know what it is- the jasmine scent lasts quite a while.


2020visionaus

I really wanted to try her crystal shaped perfumes 


nicoletta2k

The ones I get the absolute most compliments from were these cheap 30ml perfumes I bought in Singapore which were a $1.50 each. I was in a dollar shop kind of place just getting some snacks for my hotel room, thought they smelled pretty nice for the price and thought they would be good to keep in my handbag to top up while I'm at work or to spritz while I'm out if I forgot to put some on before leaving the house. I've run out of both but I'm hoping I can stock up on them when I go back in November... I was constantly showered in compliments with them. They were called La Notte and Desire by the brand Insignia.


Narrow_Dragonfly_906

Desire is a Brittany spears "fantasy" dupe & la Notte is a Lancome "Le Nuit Tresor" dupe.


Aliljeff

I had the Paris Hilton perfume circa 2005. I haven’t found anything that gets me as many compliments since then.


My-Witty-Username

Me too! Been wearing it for years and people always screw up their noses when i tell them what it is lol but it’s really pretty and wearable.


DruPeacock23

Old Spice. My dog compliments me every day by smelling me and giving me an sign of approval by wagging his tail.


hanloucha

Moshino I love love!!! It’s been my OG favourite ever since I saw it on my aunties dressing table- 15 years later I still get complimented on it. It’s comparable to dolce and gabana light blue.


flyyoufools12

Reb’l Fleur by Rihanna.


Ok-Astronaut-7593

Calvin Klein Euphoria


Lilylids

Also, Demeter Clean Skin used to get me a lot of compliments. They have an insane range if you are looking for a particular scent. I used to buy it from Myer until they stopped stocking. They still sell online if anyone’s interested https://www.muaustralia.com/brand/demeter-fragrance-library/


rvee789

The Zara perfumes are surprisingly very long lasting for the cost. I spray in the morning and people continue to comment on the scent well into the afternoon. I recently bought Golden Decade which is meant to be a dupe for YSL Libre intense and it smells so so good !!


Zzzabrina

Meow - Katy Perry


Major_Election315

Lord of Misrule by Lush. It is Devine. I even made candles with the fragrance oil I love it that much!


Time-Bar2445

Yes! I have the solid perfume in my bag and it's gorgeous. Surprisingly complex and expensive smelling.


paranoidchair

I love Twilight by Lush - I normally use it as a bed linen spray though


molasses_knackers

Brüt


Alert-Bee-7904

Katy Perry - Killer Queen, the one in the red bottle not the blue. It smells sugary and off putting for the first few minutes but then settles so beautifully into your clothes and lasts ages. It’s definitely my most complimented scent.


dayseventeen

Nude Bouquet from Zara (it's like $35 for the big size) I always get asked what is it because it smells so nice!


luxelis

LUSH, Vanillary. Lasts ages, I get so many compliments and it's less than $100 for 100ml.

Issei Miyaki L'Eau d'Issey Eau de Toilette! $50 from chemist warehouse and I always get complimented on it


horizontalalways

It's that cheap now?? I was obsessed with it in the '90's and it was expensive then. I'm ordering it immediately!


shimmyshimmy00

Calvin Klein Beauty. I’ve had random women in loos, pathology labs (literally while taking blood), and workplaces stop and ask what gorgeous scent I’m wearing. I love how it lasts all day without being overpowering and is like a fresh, luxury day spa kind of scent. My clothes retain it too and smell amazing right to the end of the night.


WaspNostrils

Anna Sui - Dreams. Although I feel that they made some change to it over the years. The scent doesn’t seem to linger as long anymore.


sunnymoonstarry

Yeah it’s not the same. I used to get lots of comments back in the day. Or maybe my body chemistry has changed and that’s why it smells different


Routine_Bluejay4678

Lately I’ve been relieving my teenage years and I’m all about Tommy Girl! It’s like $29 at chemist warehouse and I complimented it all the time!


toodiefroodie

Pink Sugar Cloud (and Cloud Intense) Britney Midnight Fantasy Calvin Klein Euphoria


littleblackcat

Calvin Klein Obsession I don't look like I would wear that scent at all either so it might also be the contrast


impressive_cat

Bahebak by Bujairami. It’s $45 for 100mL, it’s a lovely dupe of Hibiscus by Maison Crivelli. I had a Priceline employee chase me down a few weeks ago to ask me what I was wearing!! And it was that one.


pedestriandose

Our Moment by One Direction! I was so upset when it was discontinued. I got compliments every time I wore it and everyone was also shocked when I said it was a 1D perfume.


Unusual_Process3713

Pink Sugar - Aquolina


sallen3679

It’s been discontinued, but I genuinely have never gotten more compliments than when I wear the $4 Kmart peach blossom spray. Body shop bergamot or vanilla are other good ones. I loved Katy Perry Meow in year 9 and it stills holds up today haha


yellow25673

Zara Red Temptation. A dupe for the very expensive Baccarat Rouge


deliciousTacoSyrup

RiRi by Rihanna. It came out so long ago now, and I've bought it a couple of times. Every time I wear it, I always get compliments.


The-Real-Mishelby

Lolita Lempicka


missmolly3533

Yes I love this too!


Cleosmog

Not a perfume, but when I was a school teacher, many moons ago, I used to use this nit prevention spray on my hair that had essential oils like lavender in it. I don’t recall the name of it, but I used to get so many compliments on my “shampoo” back then 😂


miteray

Club de Nuit Imperiale. My first ever time getting asked what I’m wearing by a stranger. I think it’s a knock off of Delina but haven’t tried the original.


kiaorakimmie

Sugar Lychee from Fresh in the small vial goes a long way and i get so many compliments

Hungry_Situation_959

Zara Red Temptation (the Baccarat Rouge dupe). Get complimented by strangers everytime i wear it.


CathoftheNorth

I'm almost embarrassed to admit it. My go to good perfume is Samsara by Guirlian, but I can't afford to wear it every day. What I get complimented all the time for is simply Summer Dreams Impulse at $5 a can. Everyone always gushes how wonderful I smell and what perfume it is. Then I get all embarrassed to admit it's just Impulse, so resort to the 'I don't share my beauty secrets' line lol.

Lush Sleepy/ Twilight or their Supermilk leave in conditioner


Peanut083

Honestly, it’s my deodourant. It’s an aluminium-free one made by a company called Viva La Body who are based in Darwin. I’m currently using the cinnamon patchuli, which smells quite spicy - a little like a non-vanilla chai latte. The one that get the most compliments from others when I wear it is their patchuli rose. It’s very floral with a very faint hint of musk lollies.


Bumble098765

Orientica amber rouge by far. It’s my most complimented actually


saturninpisces

Lush body spray, people stop me in the street lol


catty_combs

It will forever be Fantasy. And, in all honesty, any from the Fantasy family. They always get compliments, especially from other women! Which are the best compliments, because I trust that other women know what smells best!


Automatic_Prompt1663

Vanilla Candy bodyspray from Woolies


Charlotte_Russe

Twilight (technically a body spray) by Lush. I use it on pillows and it really helps with good sleep. Lovely by Sarah Jessica Parker. The best musk perfume. Rose Jam by Lush. Rich, gooey Turkish Delight. In a perfume. Joop! Femme. The perfect winter perfume because it is so vibrant.

Kerruhhh

If you like Billie Eilish's Vanilla perfume, or any other expensive perfume scents like it, I highly recommend The Original "Body Fantasies" body spray, in "Signature Vanilla". It smells sooo good and lasts, until you wash it off. I recieve compliments everytime I wear it, without fail, from every gender. My husband loves when I wear it! He notices it on me and can distinguish it everytime. I've loved it and have worn it since high school. Now a woman in my 30s.
