Hi OzBargain, I'm looking to purchase affordable oil or otherwise long-lasting fragrances to wear day to day.

I used to buy from overseas such as Dubai etc, for very nice smelling and affordable vials of perfume oil.

I've heard of a lot of perfume bars and shops that make fragrances on the spot in areas like Bankstown/Canterbury etc but don't really know any by name.

Any recommendations in Greater Sydney anywhere? Any idea what I can expect to pay?

Thanks

  You can buy essential oils from China cheaply, and mix to your preference with a carrier oil like jojoba, to get perfume oil.

  You have to look for Eau de parfum variants, not eau de toilette since parfum has higher oil content which lasts longer.

    Generally yes, but I've had EDTs that last longer than some EDPs. It really depends on the formula and you.

  Middle Eastern fragrances are still great value. Perfumesdubai.com.au, Dune and others are great.

    Most of their $35 ones don't last that long… Their newer 100ml range seems to be better but costs more.
