I love cheapies! A must on my collection is Beyonceś Heat Wild Orchid, it has orchid and coconut water and is beutiful, I find the coconut water very realistic. I adore that one I even have a back up, is the purple one. xoxo.
Thanks for mention, Dr. Smith! Indi is lovely, and you know I adore good cheapies. 😁 So many are underpriced compared to their counterparts. Tocade, Still, and so many more!
Hello Claire. I've just ordered Indi and other bottles from Direct Cosmetics. So inexpensive. I always buy from NOTINO and PerfumeClick. First time ordering from Direct Cosmetics and I went crazy..... Thanks for sharing. 💞💞
Direct cosmetics have quite a rolling stock and sometimes incredible bargains but yes always worth comparing because they are sometimes not the best option! I just discovered perfume click the other day, what a coincidence 😂 let me know what is good and what not from your purchases, I'd be really interested to know! ❤️
I know, it's the one that I've just never thought to buy, I've seen it so many times and just thought no. I eventually got it by accident 😂 only me hey?!
@@ThePerfumeNest I also tried meow! But that was sooo sweet, too sweet for me, it disappeared to another home very quickly. I know Charlotte Ross loves that one though.
It was interesting but not one I would normally gravitate towards. It felt like a good choice for a high energy night out, more autumn winter than now. I quite liked the warmth of it. Thanks for watching 🥰
It goes to show how different noses are. I bought KP Indi from a reputable outlet so I know its fresh/genuine, and to my nose it smells like a very very very light fresh musk ... that's it... no other notes..... then its gone within 15 minutes.. don't smell it at all, not on my skin or clothes.. no.. longevity to speak of.. Great Video as always!!
I know musk is a really weird note that some people are really sensitive to and others not, and I do see a massive split in opinions on indi so I totally get it! ❤️ Mine has a definite but mild fruitiness about it to begin but then quite linear with lots of sandalwood. Light but present on skin for a long time. Do you have any good affordable fragrance recommendations? I would love to try a few more, it was fun to try these! 🥰
I have never tried RWA, I remember there being a lot of fuss about it being reformulated when I first started on TH-cam and so I wasn't sure the new bottles were the same and so I didn't go for it. It does always sound beautiful though and I would love to try it! 🥰
Yeah that one is really not me I don't think. It's interesting but incredibly synthetic. It just depends what you want doesn't it? It's popular and loved, but just not me. 🥰
I promise you are not missing out on Stella EDP, I had that one when it came out, wasn't remarkable. It's just a dark rose scent, you probably have something similar ❤
I did try it ages ago, probably around the time it first came out and I didn't buy it, but for some reason, when it got discontinued if felt like I'd missed out. I guess it's a "when it's gone" thing! 😂
I bought FATALE INTENSE by Agent Provocateur a few years back. It was a blind buy and really surprised me. I wasn’t sure at the initial spray, but then it really grew on me. I also have and like INDI by Katy Perry, particularly on days that I’ve had enough of my sweet and gourmand fragrances.
How are you? Sorry for not seeing your comment earlier! Aah yes, I've been trying fatale intense more and you are right, it's one that grows on you. Quite addictive. Indi is a super comforting one, and yes, not too sweet! Thank you for watching as always ☺️
I actually haven't tried any of these, but I do love a good bargain. I've just started to "warm up" to the idea of buying tester bottles as they are relatively cheap so you can find a good deal on something you like. The downside they don't always have a cap and can have some years on them🧡
I have unknowingly bought testers in a few cases. E.g. Elie Saab le parfum and Gucci guilty absolute pour femme, so far the have been fine, but ultimately I hate when they don't have caps... It's a little thing but it really grates 😂
@@dr.claire.perfume Yeah I get it, on perfumes that I love I would splurge but things that I'm not sure, if there is a tester then why not? Or in case it's a really good deal, or hard to find. My Deep red doesn't have the cap but it has the inside of the cap I think, I don't mind
Hey Claire👋🏽 lovely vid, thanks. Pop and pop bluebell have been on my radar. They both seem like my type of fragrance. I prefer to fade to the background whenever possible. And some of my favs don’t allow be to do that lol, I feel like these to will 🥰
Yes for sure pop bluebell is a light one. Not the most realistic bluebell ever but if you like tuberose and frangipani and slightly green, fresh fragrances, you are on safe ground. Thanks for watching 😘
I was in a rush, it was just before my wedding in 2019. I was doing some prep stuff... I never realised that wedding prep is basically endless crafting, but yep, buying lots of stuff to make things with and I didn't have time to wait for someone to serve me and then time to queue to pay so now I live with the regret. At least I averted a parking ticket though 😂
love fragrance hauls, always a chance to discover and know about new frags, this is the first time i hear abt the ones u showed, love ur opinion about them.. keep it up ♥
hi claire i missed watching you guys 😌 i have'nt been on youtube in a while because i had suffered morning sickness in the past 4months. nice to see and watch you guys again great haul! i love cheapie but goodie perfumes 😍 been eyeing for agent provocateur think i would like it love your description on each perfumes 🙂
Hi Rin, so sorry to hear that! I've not been around much this month either. I hope you are feeling a little better. It must be hard feeling rubbish all the time. Agent provocateur is a fun one! ❤️
Unfortunately i can't find any celebrity fragrances in my country! However i enjoy some affordable scent from others brands. Cheep doesn't mean bad for sur! Thank you for sharing❤😙
I read somewhere that the market for celebrity fragrances has been decreasing these last few years and lots got discontinued. I think the market for celebrity fragrances is highly dependent on country. I remember having no idea who Sofia Vergara was when I started watching TH-cam and I had to look her up to find out. I think if you've not heard of the celebrity, a fragrance seems quite irrelevant. Thanks for watching ❤️
I have a bottle of The Katy Perry and I didn’t like it when I smelt it, I’ve never sprayed it since, you’ve made me want to try it again though. I really like Fatale Intense, I think it’s a really good one for the price and I like the red bottle but I don’t think it smells like Angel either 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽😎
Sometimes your first impression sticks, but I've had some 180s with things like illicit flower. I wasn't fussed to begin but by the end of the bottle I felt like I'd miss it. Same with Burberry body, I've really been seeing how unique that one is even though it's not something I'd normally gravitate towards. Fatale intense I see why it is loved, it's got something very punchy and fun about it. I was surprised to see the comparison to Angel and I tried it side by side so many times, but I think my view is coloured by the fact that I really enjoy Angel. If someone didn't like Angel, I can see a very, very distant similarity could be enough to make fatale intense a no and smelling the nozzle of fatale intense gave me that very faint resemblance. What a long winded explanation LOL 😂
Oh no! I can empathise re Stella 😭 I used to wear it years ago and would love another bottle but, yes, the prices on the few available are astronomical aren't they? Why oh why do fragrance houses always discontinue their best ones. I purchased Stella EDT and found it to smell like a watered down version of the EDP. What I can smell of it is lovely but it's so weak. Tragic!
I agree, it's a shame it's gone. I don't understand because it must have been a great seller for them, unless it was something about ingredients or manufacturing instead. I had the opportunity to buy the EDT about a year ago and I didn't, but I am glad that I didn't if you say it is quite weak! Thanks for letting me know I'm not alone with Stella EDP! 🥰
These are great options😍. I have all of them except Indi. In the mean time Stella McCartney perfumes have suddenly become rather expensive. I love Pop Bluebell eventhough the lasting power isnt great...dont mind respraying👍
Yes pop bluebell is an easy wear! Do you think Stella McCartney perfumes are all being discontinued? I see them disappearing from shops here too... I know they sort of relaunched a few years back but I don't think it was that successful... Indi is a good one if you like milky sandalwood perfumes. Thanks for watching Val 🥰
@@valhasviews no one talks about any much apart from Stella but i know Stella in two was also really popular but discontinued ages ago... I think Stella McCartney fragrances are just not in fashion. Light florals don't sell I don't think.
Loved this, please do more affordable fragrances. I recently purchased Shock in Scent EDP by Police. I think I paid £12 on eBay. It's such a bargain, long lasting, I was over spraying but a colleague told me it was too much 🤦🏽♀️ I'd love to know your opinion of it
Thank you! Haha! Yes some fragrances can be deceptive, sometimes they are not as strong for you as for others. I am quite interested in a few fragrances from police, they seem to have some good affordable offerings. 🕵️♀️
Aww thank you! I grew up in the 90s and 2000s when wavy curly hair was not a thing at all, it was always about people using straighteners. I always used to feel super messy and self conscious! So that is so lovely cos this is my natural hair, totally unstyled.
@@dr.claire.perfume As a fellow curly, I totally resonate with this! It's taken being in my 30s to start embracing and enjoying it, so I really like seeing other curlies too 🙂
@@emmahaydon5564 yes! It's a thing isn't it? I used to think I wasn't getting jobs even because of my hair looking messy 😅 it made me super paranoid in my very early 20s. Kind of ridiculous looking back. I definitely wanted straight hair at some points in my life, but I love being curly now (apart from when it rains or is windy 😂).
I think they may be sandalwood in lndi. I suspect today’s perfumers choose not to put all the notes out there. I started thinking that way after encountering a few perfumes l felt had hidden notes ❤️
Yes I think it's pretty unmistakable... I was shocked. Maybe Fragrantica made a mistake, I wouldn't be surprised... There are some perfumes that feel much more complex for sure! Thanks for watching ❤️
Thank you so much for subscribing ❤️ I've heard a few people suggest the Rihanna fragrances, I need to check them out. They are all really well priced! 🥰
I keep looking at the others she has and not sure about the smell of hyacinth!! And talking about perfume ,I would definitely buy 007 again as it’s such a pretty easy going subtle perfume ! I think I paid $12 for it Hugs 💗
There are a few of those 007 perfumes aren't there? Is yours the original one, cos I've seen at least 3! There's a shiny one and a black one too. $12 sounds like a bargain! What's that, like £8?!
Hi! £3.50! The Katy Perry fragrance doesn't sound like something I'd be interested in but at that price I'd be tempted. 😊 The Stella McCartney fragrance sounds nice. I like a nice light floral. 😍 Thanks for sharing! Xxx
Hi Kay! Hope you are well! I think direct cosmetics have the indi fragrance for not very much, also the Stella McCartney one. If you ever want to try anything that I have, please just contact me in IG and I will send you some samples. That way you can try before you buy 😉
I haven't tried anything from Agent Provacateur yet, been quite curious about a number of them. This one sounds very interesting, I've gotta know where that Angel comparison comes from!
It is a passing similarity to me. If you love Angel, they are really different. I can see people who hate Angel thinking of them as similar though. Looking at the notes, you really wouldn't think it. Fatale intense reminded me a little of Paco Rabanne black XS for her EDT too, but not that similar, just the berries and the patchouli I think... Fatale intense feels to me like that vinyl dress I out a photo up of. Dark red, shiny, over the top, not entirely natural 😅
@@dr.claire.perfume My only problem is that I'm afraid it won't last on me, I'll try to smell it in a store. I'm actually more curious on th Diesel tattoo one you mentioned in your cozy video, I think I just want the bottle 😹😹
I paid £2.50 for my Adam Levine perfume and I actually like that one I think it smells really nice, doesn’t last long but for that price who cares!!! 💕💕
I really want to try the Adam Levine perfume, I will get it eventually 😅 I love sandalwood! I remember when you tried that one, it was an instant hit! I used to love those celebrity perfume videos, they were so much fun! ❤️
I've not seen it here for ages, I did see the EDT a few months ago, but only one and only a 30ml. Maybe it was a mistake not to grab it but I just wanted the EDP! 🤦♀️😭 Do you have much left? It sells here for £120+
@@dr.claire.perfume my EDP is half way down and I recently bought a bottle of EDT. It’s the perfume I bought the most in my life. It was my signature scent for almost 20 years… 😩
Honestly I hadn't, but I see on Fragrantica that it is compared to the Ouai perfume, Rue St Honoré. Apologies for such an obvious answer but I never smelt it myself, did you try it? I assume that you didn't think it was close? Otherwise, I can ask my friend, he has smelt many more perfumes than I have and he loves jasmine and tuberose so he might be able to suggest something.
Thank you Claire. No I haven't tried any of the others that have seen suggested as they seem to be equally expensive. Kai is about £80 for 50 ml and I think those that you mentioned are similar. It's the most beautiful scent I've ever smelt
Yep me too. I was doing wedding organisation admin and I just didn't have time to get someone, wait for them to open the cabinet, queue to pay etc. I do wish that I'd just hung around, got a parking ticket and got it though. 😂
Yes it was wasn't it? I always wondered where it came from! I don't watch that channel, the first time I had heard of her was when her fragrance came out 😂 I live in a cave 😂
Claire Smith: "Today I'm going to talk about some really cheap fragrances."
Me: "I LOVE YOU CLAIRE SMITH!"
🤣 thank you! ❤️ I love a cheapie!
I love cheapies! A must on my collection is Beyonceś Heat Wild Orchid, it has orchid and coconut water and is beutiful, I find the coconut water very realistic. I adore that one I even have a back up, is the purple one. xoxo.
Aah yes, that one and midnight heat are the two that people seem to love from that line! I've not tried that one, thanks for highlighting it! 🥰
I’m glad you like Indi. It’s one of the best celebrity fragrances out there ❤️nice choices and lm glad they.are cheapies
I totally agree, the nicest one I've smelt in a long time! ❤️
Thanks for mention, Dr. Smith! Indi is lovely, and you know I adore good cheapies. 😁 So many are underpriced compared to their counterparts. Tocade, Still, and so many more!

@@caerfaimama ooh I love nail polish! I don't wear it often enough in my hands, but my toenails are always all kinds of colours! 🤣
Hi lovey Claire! Indie smells so niche and the price is unbeatable.
I couldn't believe it! I wasn't expecting much at all 😃
Fatale Intense sounds so good! I’ve been intrigued by it for a while now, but of course still didn’t get it lol. Great choices Claire! ❤️
I know, it's the one that I've just never thought to buy, I've seen it so many times and just thought no. I eventually got it by accident 😂 only me hey?!
On me it smells exactly like Angel but with much less staying power.
@@louiseleite3866 it fades quickly for sure! I agree! It does also have an Angel vibe, I see why some people see a similarity.
Hi Claire, I would recommend Lanvin, especially Éclat d'Arpège 💜
Thanks for the suggestion, I have seen a few people love that one, I will try to check it out. ❤️
Wait, there is no sandalwood in Indi?! That's wild!!! Thank you for the mention, beautiful Claire!!! Great list - who doesn't love a good cheapie?!💗💗💗
Exactly! Maybe it's one where Fragrantica is very very wrong 😂
Pop Bluebell sounds lovely! I am a fan of a nice, easy light floral when I require a bit of comforting. ❤
Yes I get a lot of tuberose in the dry down, but it's strangely still quite light and airy. I love spring florals.
You have a way with making things sound amazing; the best non sandalwood , sandalwood fragrance. The best non-coconut, coconut fragrance. 😉❤️
Haha! Thank you! Indi was a shock! So surprised that something so cheap can smell so good 😅
@@dr.claire.perfume I’ve been holding out buying a Katy Perry fragrance. You may have just pulled off the impossible 😂
@@ThePerfumeNest I also tried meow! But that was sooo sweet, too sweet for me, it disappeared to another home very quickly. I know Charlotte Ross loves that one though.
@@dr.claire.perfume I. Draw. The. Line. At. Meow. 😉😂
@@ThePerfumeNest yes it is another level of celebrity scent 😂 loved though by many people!
I appreciate the review of Fatale Intense. I am watching Mercari for the right deal on that one.
It was interesting but not one I would normally gravitate towards. It felt like a good choice for a high energy night out, more autumn winter than now. I quite liked the warmth of it. Thanks for watching 🥰
I have never tried a Stella McCartney fragrance. You got some pretty and affordable gems. 😊
There were some lovely Stella McCartney fragrances but most are sadly discontinued. Stella EDP was loved by a lot of people I think. Such a shame! ❤️
It goes to show how different noses are.

Light but present on skin for a long time. Do you have any good affordable fragrance recommendations? I would love to try a few more, it was fun to try these! 🥰
I've been curious about that agent prov one but the chili pepper note had me like 🧐
It is a warm one for sure! 😂 Not spicy but warm and it gets hotter as it dries down! 😂
Great video hun of very affordable fragrances, I have not tried any that you showed.
Thank you Nika. 🥰 I think you would like Indi. ❤️
Very, very useful, practical information on these perfumes. Thank you!
Thank you for watching 😘
My favourite cheapie is Michael Buble's By Invitation. I love the drydown.
Ooh I saw that one being reviewed the other day, it sounded good, I will look out for it! Thanks for the suggestion! ❤️
Rich,Warm,Addictive by Zara is my very favourite cheapie. A few others that were pre-loved deals but that is more about good fortune.
I have never tried RWA, I remember there being a lot of fuss about it being reformulated when I first started on TH-cam and so I wasn't sure the new bottles were the same and so I didn't go for it. It does always sound beautiful though and I would love to try it! 🥰

Thank you so much for subscribing ❤️ I've heard a few people suggest the Rihanna fragrances, I need to check them out. They are all really well priced! 🥰
I keep looking at the others she has and not sure about the smell of hyacinth!!
And talking about perfume ,I would definitely buy 007 again as it’s such a pretty easy going subtle perfume ! I think I paid $12 for it
Hugs 💗
There are a few of those 007 perfumes aren't there? Is yours the original one, cos I've seen at least 3! There's a shiny one and a black one too. $12 sounds like a bargain! What's that, like £8?!
@@dr.claire.perfume yes this one is the original and that’s about right for the cost
Hi!
£3.50! The Katy Perry fragrance doesn't sound like something I'd be interested in but at that price I'd be tempted. 😊
The Stella McCartney fragrance sounds nice. I like a nice light floral. 😍
Thanks for sharing!
Xxx
Hi Kay! Hope you are well! I think direct cosmetics have the indi fragrance for not very much, also the Stella McCartney one. If you ever want to try anything that I have, please just contact me in IG and I will send you some samples. That way you can try before you buy 😉
@@dr.claire.perfume That'd be great! I'll keep an eye on your collection and let you know. 😉 Xxx
I haven't tried anything from Agent Provacateur yet, been quite curious about a number of them. This one sounds very interesting, I've gotta know where that Angel comparison comes from!
It is a passing similarity to me. If you love Angel, they are really different. I can see people who hate Angel thinking of them as similar though. Looking at the notes, you really wouldn't think it. Fatale intense reminded me a little of Paco Rabanne black XS for her EDT too, but not that similar, just the berries and the patchouli I think... Fatale intense feels to me like that vinyl dress I out a photo up of. Dark red, shiny, over the top, not entirely natural 😅
I wanted to buy Indi on 2020 but forgot all about it, it sound really nice
It's a good one for bed, I find it very comforting.
@@dr.claire.perfume My only problem is that I'm afraid it won't last on me, I'll try to smell it in a store. I'm actually more curious on th Diesel tattoo one you mentioned in your cozy video, I think I just want the bottle 😹😹
@@silverliningfragrance1434 it is a very pretty bottle, I think if you like gourmand, go with loverdose tattoo. 🥰
I paid £2.50 for my Adam Levine perfume and I actually like that one I think it smells really nice, doesn’t last long but for that price who cares!!! 💕💕
I really want to try the Adam Levine perfume, I will get it eventually 😅 I love sandalwood! I remember when you tried that one, it was an instant hit! I used to love those celebrity perfume videos, they were so much fun! ❤️
Fatale Intense is a big regret for me... because i really wanted to get it, but then I was too late.. 🙃🙃🙃
Well I will send you a decant for sure You never know, you might hate it 😂 I bought squashies today 😉
Fatale intense is great 😍😍
It's a fun one! ❤️
Only one I need is bluebell! ☺️☺️🤦♀️😉
Haha Sunny! Yes, light fresh floral 😉
Cheapie is my favorite note 😸
Haha, you and me both! 😂
Your skin looks amazing! What have you been using?
Thank you! I think I'd used some Nivea vitamin A and C and Q10 serum. I think it's quite smoothing and brightening, so maybe that's it?
LOVE YOUR HAIR GIRL XXX
Thank you Charlotte, that's so lovely of you to say! 🥰
@@dr.claire.perfume your welcome xxx
I like perfume too xxx
@@charlottefragrance771 I will check your channel out.
I agree with the assessment of Angel vs AP Fatale Intense. I have both. I think AP FI is a lighter happier but still sexy cousin. Similar DNA.
Yes definitely related, similar vibe, but not that close in feeling.
Stella has been in my collection since it came pit and I’m so sad it’s going out of the market! 😅
I've not seen it here for ages, I did see the EDT a few months ago, but only one and only a 30ml. Maybe it was a mistake not to grab it but I just wanted the EDP! 🤦♀️😭 Do you have much left? It sells here for £120+
@@dr.claire.perfume my EDP is half way down and I recently bought a bottle of EDT. It’s the perfume I bought the most in my life. It was my signature scent for almost 20 years… 😩
@@julieg_quebec-julesselivre8641 😭 that's so sad.
Thanks for your vids. Have you heard of Kai. I'm desperate to find a dupe or something with Gardenia, Jasmine and tuberose
Honestly I hadn't, but I see on Fragrantica that it is compared to the Ouai perfume, Rue St Honoré. Apologies for such an obvious answer but I never smelt it myself, did you try it? I assume that you didn't think it was close? Otherwise, I can ask my friend, he has smelt many more perfumes than I have and he loves jasmine and tuberose so he might be able to suggest something.
Thank you Claire. No I haven't tried any of the others that have seen suggested as they seem to be equally expensive. Kai is about £80 for 50 ml and I think those that you mentioned are similar. It's the most beautiful scent I've ever smelt
Indi sounds good
Yes! Definitely a hit! ❤️
I could kick myself for not picking up the Stella McCartney when I saw it for $40 🤦♀️
Yep me too. I was doing wedding organisation admin and I just didn't have time to get someone, wait for them to open the cabinet, queue to pay etc. I do wish that I'd just hung around, got a parking ticket and got it though. 😂
I feel like femme fatale was very popular on here. I think Demi made it popular. The chilli note 🥵🥵
Yes it was wasn't it? I always wondered where it came from! I don't watch that channel, the first time I had heard of her was when her fragrance came out 😂 I live in a cave 😂
Hello !!!! ☕🥰
Hello Paola 🥰
Me being me I plan to get em all. 😬
😂 well, they are affordable. Lovely to see you! How are you?
@@dr.claire.perfume I’m good had a few things that kept me off YT but I’m back 😏
Hi Clare 🤩💗🥰
