Perfume?

[helpimcrap]

Thinking of getting my mum a day wear perfume.

She wears Chanel no5 when going out, so I'd like something similar.

What can people recommend that is affordable and similar for day use?

Thanks.

First place i always check is Fragrantica, if you search for a Perfume/Aftershave, there's a section that people recommend similar smells.

I just bought my partner coco mademoiselle 50ml eau de parfum for Christmas. Got it at boots used the bonus advantage card points it's triple points on beauty atm. got over £14 worth of points (and a £5 discount using honey.)

Nice return when you consider Chanel doesn't really go on offer Only issue is I now have £22 of boots points and nothing to spend them on.

Is your mother a top revenue earner?

Flowerbomb, by Victor Rolf.
Grown up, but not so much as to smell like an old lady (or any given department store perfume counter).

Still quite pricey. Looking for £30 or £40 gift as she may hate it looks.

Any more suggestions please?

That fragrantica website is ok but takes a lot of searching.

It's only £40 here: https://www.parfumdreams.co.uk/Vikt...owerbomb/Eau-de-Parfum-Spray/index_15436.aspx
Several other places do it for under £50, too, including John Lewis.

My mum loves Jo Malone stuff, the pomegranate one I think is her favourite. No idea if it's £40 or more if it's more expensive though.

Ended up buying:
L K Bennett Signature Eau De Parfum 100ml Spray
Vanity Rocks Her Eau De Toilette 100ml Spray

Good reviews. Cheap lol. About £25 for both lol. But they had decent reviews.
