Affordable fragrances that are worth it

Fragrances are something that is unique and personal to each individual person. Multiple people can 

wear the same perfume, however each person will interpret the scent differently. My favourite thing 

about fragrances is how versatile and personal they are to everyone. Their are so many different 

scents and notes that can be combined to create an infant amount of perfumes. With all of this being 

said, their are so many affordable fragrances that people don't know about or purchase but are 

actually better than luxury perfumes. Fragrances is an area that I never splash out in and always 

go for the more affordable option, which is why I wanted to share my favourites with you all.

When I think of affordable fragrances the first that come to mind, despite not being an actual 

perfume, are the Zoella body mists. These are not your typical body mists as they are much have 

much stronger fragrance notes, that also lasts longer on the body. I love all of these, as each different 

body mist has such a unique scent, that could definitely be more expensive, however are only £8.

Out of all of my fragrances this is the one that I don't know where it came from. It kind of just 

appeared on my shelf. Sheer radiance by Autograph has notes of citrus, gardenia and pink pepper 

which gives this an overall floral scent. I would have never thought to look at M&S for fragrances, 

however they have such a wide variety of scents and prices that can suit everyone. This fragrance in 

particular is perfect for those who love more floral and fresh scents and also enjoy changing up scents 

depending on the season and time of year, as this is perfect for Spring and Summer.

For the longest time I have been using Milton Lloyd fragrances. They were sold in a store locally to 

me, and as they're only £5 they were perfect to pick up for holidays and travelling. Over the years 

I have carried on purchasing perfumes from them and have fell in love with many different fragrances 

that they offer. My favourites are Vogue and love you. Each scent is based of and compared to a more 

luxury fragrance, including the same base notes so you can get the same experience from these 

without breaking the bank. Every scent I have used, brings back a bunch of different memories 

which I have never experienced with another perfume or brand before.

In regards to lighter scents I am obsessed with the So...? fragrance body mists. In fact I love these so 

much I own every single scent of both their original and Summer escapes collection. Each fragrance 

is unlike anything I've ever found. They are all so light are airy which is perfect for wearing and 

layering on top of other fragrances, as well as those who enjoy less intense scents.
