I am currently studying at university and working on a small business, so I usually spend my money on investing in it. That's why I wanted to know how some of you have managed to use fragrances having a tight budget. Thank you for reading and for your responses in advance 🫶

In this series, we’re doing something simple (and difficult): reducing each house to just 5 fragrances.. No hype. No rankings. No right or wrong answers. Just the scents that matter most.. based on wearability, legacy, impact, and personal connection. Comment your top 5 from the house of Rabanne:

acquired this sample on my saturday trip. and oh my stars am i in love. ive tried a lot of freshies before, i dont think very many come close to this one. definitely up there. opening notes are very bright and sparkly. think minty fresh mojito on a yacht. you get some citrus, mint, black currant, and a nice, soft, spicy edge with coriander. the middle notes are a very dominant, photorealistic and noticeable apricot, complimented by an herbal, floral slice of basil, carrot seed, and rose, before descending into a rich, fruity, musky base of fig and dates. this is ultimate vacation in a bottle. it’s bright, playful, yet mature with a sophisticated edge amongst the sweetness. an absolute compliment beast. i’ve gotten so many compliments from this one today. performance? absolutely amazing for a freshie. i get about 7-8 hours out of this, with fantastic projection, and that’s with just using the sample, although LV sample atomizers are genuinely amazing. only con is the price tag, but honestly after 4 months of careful budgeting, i think i could buy a full sized bottle. i’m at least looking to direct that amount of money for SOMETHING that high end, just not sure yet. but definitely consider this one.
