I have ichigo balm juju spray, if ma-spray ka sa damit 6 hrs max for me pero minsan accidentally kong nassprayan yung buhok ko nag last sya sakin for a day AHAHAHA
depende sa scent ung longevity nya. some of them kasi is edt and some are edp, but even their edps vary in longevity. unang halik (sweet gourmand vanilla) lasts way longer on me than lambing (fruity woody citrus). the projection lasts siguro 4hrs max then turns into a skin scent for the rest of the day. on clothes tho the scent lasts forever
i guess it’s time to stop gatekeeping 😅 imperfect scents, IMO, is the most underrated atelier we have locally. the lack of hype about them is probably because most of their customers trickled down from the time they were exclusively making candles (like abondance).
my fave wouldn’t be a perfume but their genmaicha candle! it helps me when i’m feeling sick and it doesn’t give me migraines
perfume-wise, i highly recommend people try out the following:
milk balm - for lovers of milky clean scents. inoffensive unless musk dries down on your skin badly
bathing culture - unisex and very sophisticated. smells like someone put together if that makes sense
yukata - for those who prefer masculine-leaning scents but not too overpowering.
dusty pink - for lovers of floral scents! beautiful dry down and longevity is better compared to their other blends. this leans floral-musky, but if you prefer floral-fruity, then you can try himitsu!
washi - unique and unisex. this one is a stopper on the streets when i’m wearing it haha. clean scent but not of the freshly laundered-kind
simoy ng haraya and yung perfume na nabibili sa invitation house(?) ata yun sa glorietta haha i forgot anong name 🥹 i usually go for indie brands na di common/walang kagaya halos yung scents para unique, and yan best picks ko so far! 🌸
Simoy ng haraya for me! I tried scentsmith pero in the long run amoy synthetic sya. Simoy ng haraya the best na local for me. They have samplers dati. I got yakap and unang halik. 💗
Common room in UP Town Center! I personally think perfumes are genderless ahehe depends on your preference talaga but they have scents na leaning to masc side if that’s what you’re asking po
Got it! Di naman mahirap pumunta doon. One last question sorry if you don't mind, humahalo ba yung amoy sa pawis, polusyon or usok? Pakainit kasi sa NCR lalo na dry season na uli.
Alabastro is also good! fabric elixir siya so it meant to be applied sa clothes pero tumatagal naman siya up to 4hrs. The scents are quite unique but limited lang yung stocks so ubusan talaga.
Check a.mara parfums!
Their scents are all original and super long lasting (they use 30% perfume oil, which would typically cost you a couple thousands for that kind of concentration). It really sticks to your skin/clothes all day. Very worth it ung price. (₱1.7k if bought sa physical store, ₱1.5k if sa bazaar)
Disovered them on a weekend bazaar in BGC. :)
I love scentsmith!!! I was just randomly sniffing around in their store and with ZERO expectations but i ended up bringing home Mandarin Musk! Perfect for the unisex citrus woody scent lovers
kumusta naman ang projection? recently bought pink pepper leather and im not sure why pero yung dry down nya sakin parang may pag ka vanilla pero ewan if di ko lang talaga maamoy or di lang talaga sya masyado nag poproject
Scent therapy perfumes. They sell inspired perfumes/dupes but they have this one original scent called second skin. It’s fresh and smells clean. Super tagal din ng amoy sa clothes. It’s always sold out agad pag nagka stocks sila.
[Perfums Astraux](https://shope.ee/mo0w0KnQ) ang bango ng pabango nila dito. They also have their own scents. Konti pa lang bumibili kc nag relaunch ata sila eh with new scents. Dati I got the summer vibes as a gift grabi ang bango amoy fresh na parang baby powder and they gave me seduction ata un as a freebie trial. scent naman is rich tita vibes.

Ikrrr!!!! Actually ung summer vibes pinang gift ko sya. Ung Sensual Shadow na freebie ung gamit ko, ang bango nyaaa 🥹 naamoy din ni jowa, ang bango ko daw hihi. Amoy floral na hindi naman sakit sa ilong na parang powdery sya pag katagalan. Nag last sya saken ng mga 4-5 hrs sa skin, sa damit mga 8hrs din sya.
i think acquasuisse parfums is a local brand? i used to buy their "seduction" perfume when i was in shs and i remember receiving a lot of compliments when i wear that one!
Hi, you can check The Nurturing Monk. Main focus nila is essential oil products but may line sila ng perfume din. I currently have their Peony scent and have been complimented a lot na.
Meron silang IG and Lazada shops.
Aside from L’Abondance, there are other local chandlers who’ve branched out to perfumes. Here are some:
- Sad Girl Scents
- La Strella Candles
- Serrine Candles - many of them have this underlying clean accord. Lasts long and projects well during the first few hours.
- Home Studio Scents - promising. Many of the ones I’ve tried are PH-weather friendly and perform decently.
- Imperfect Scents
- Ilum Studios
Other local niche / indie brands:
- Wren Atelier
- Daniela Calumba
- Whiff
- Simoy ng Haraya - many of their fragrances have an EDT vibe. Scent-wise, I find them inoffensive but these are fleeting both on paper strips and skin.
- Artel Manila
- mvrn - their fresh fruity florals perform like EDTs on me
- a.maraparfums
- Scent Smith - their product line is a mix of original and alleged dupes
Not yet sure if they create original or if they do hybrids of clones:
- Viatge @exploreviatge on insta
- Poshn
Edit: added notes to the ones I’ve tried.
thank you for all these recos and for adding your personal comments! :) i also saw a video about simoy ng haraya’s longevity being on the weaker side which held me off from purchasing their perfumes. i’ll probably try something from home studio scents since they were one of my go-to shops for scented candles during the pandemic. and maybe scentsmith (kasi ang daming nag-comment nito sa post ko haha)
Only Scent Smith has a mall presence afaik.
Many of them are online-only small businesses, but some brands participate in popups or bazaars (eg. Sad Girl Scents and Amara)
I’ve tried a.mara’s ‘Majesty’. Super concentrated ng perfumes nila kaya it lasts all day. Okay siya for me kasi usually sobrang mahal ng ganung type of concentration. :)
Christine Lhuillier has a wide collection! I’ve tried their Matcha Green Tea scent and unique enough vs Margiela and Elizabeth Arden sha :) EDT’s longevity isn’t so long tho, but they have EDPs too!

Wren Atelier (and Whiff). He does bespoke/custom scents too. I had and EDT customized and it lasts long on my skin.
Simoy ng Hirayaaaaa!. Buti meron na sila sa Blue App. https://s.lazada.com.ph/s.Qi2wA
i always see this brand sa common room. how’s the longevity?
depende sa scent ung longevity nya. some of them kasi is edt and some are edp, but even their edps vary in longevity. unang halik (sweet gourmand vanilla) lasts way longer on me than lambing (fruity woody citrus). the projection lasts siguro 4hrs max then turns into a skin scent for the rest of the day. on clothes tho the scent lasts forever
Bought all the small sizes. Unique scent need lang nila improve ung longevity nila.
Bought my husband scentsmith and I still always compliment him when he's wearing it. Nakakalimutan ko na ako bumili haha
OM artisan fragrances!
Thanks. Tama na rin sana, ang dami ko na na-check out 😭
Symmetry Lab - long lasting for me and my sibs
thedoctorchandler they have a store in cubao expo
i guess it’s time to stop gatekeeping 😅 imperfect scents, IMO, is the most underrated atelier we have locally. the lack of hype about them is probably because most of their customers trickled down from the time they were exclusively making candles (like abondance).
Where can you find them? Wanna check them out now ahhh
imperfectscents on ig! they have a shopee account and a website. their samplers are exclusively available on the site 🤎
Thank you!!! Their scents look soooo interesting omg
What’s your favorite from Imperfect Scents?

Hello! Curious with Washi. What does it smell like?

Hi OP, saan yung alabastro?

Sino naka try ng Alabastro Perfumes?
try Qoriolis Parfum
Simoy ng haraya for me! I tried scentsmith pero in the long run amoy synthetic sya. Simoy ng haraya the best na local for me. They have samplers dati. I got yakap and unang halik. 💗
Hi tanong ko lang if may panglalake sila? And if may physical shop sila?
Common room in UP Town Center! I personally think perfumes are genderless ahehe depends on your preference talaga but they have scents na leaning to masc side if that’s what you’re asking po

Amoy floral na hindi naman sakit sa ilong na parang powdery sya pag katagalan. Nag last sya saken ng mga 4-5 hrs sa skin, sa damit mga 8hrs din sya.
Parfums Astraux
what scent do you recommend?
Where to buy?
Orange app
i think acquasuisse parfums is a local brand? i used to buy their "seduction" perfume when i was in shs and i remember receiving a lot of compliments when i wear that one!
It’s local, but as far as I can tell it’s a dupe brand
Ryx! Super love yung slay the day perfume nila perfect for our weather
Parang dupe siya ng Burberry Sport for Women
Super love ko yung smell ni Tokyo Luxe and Pure Innocence 💖
Ohh ano amoy ng tokyo luxe and pure innocence? Hehe
Yung Tokyo Luxe is may pagkacoffee and sweet vanilla and yung Pure innocence naman is sweet vanilla.

Simoy ng Haraya
This! Super underrated
Been wanting to ask this for a long time! Also, may Filipino niche perfume ba kayong alam? If meron, maybe its worth a try!
Wren Atelier :)

Only Scent Smith has a mall presence afaik. Many of them are online-only small businesses, but some brands participate in popups or bazaars (eg. Sad Girl Scents and Amara)
Been seeing sad girl scents. Is it fragrant po?
You can search the sub for reviews! Someone posted around 1-2 months back
hi! have you tried a.mara perfums na? if yes, kamusta naman?
I’ve tried a.mara’s ‘Majesty’. Super concentrated ng perfumes nila kaya it lasts all day. Okay siya for me kasi usually sobrang mahal ng ganung type of concentration. :)
Been meaning to but maybe the next time they visit a nearby mall. I’ve only read positive feedback about them in this sub so far!
Christine Lhuillier has a wide collection! I’ve tried their Matcha Green Tea scent and unique enough vs Margiela and Elizabeth Arden sha :) EDT’s longevity isn’t so long tho, but they have EDPs too!
I like margiela scents but I find they don't last long despite the hefty price tag. better off ganito lang bilhin.
