A few years ago, I shifted my beauty routine toward clean, natural-forward products.
Unlike a face cream, perfume can holdmemories, identity, and nostalgia.
A specific scent can make you feel happy, relaxed, joyful, or sensual.
There’s a lot at stake when switching your go-to fragrance for a cleaner option.
These cruelty-free fragrances bring all the emotions associated with your favorite luxury perfumes sans the hormone disrupters.
Oakcha
Sweven
Do Oakcha perfumes smell like their inspo scents?
Baccarat Rouge 540 is one of the most unique fragrances I’ve ever smelled.
To my surprise, it smells the exact same (if not slightlybetter).
To me, Sweven smells less artificial than the inspirational scent.
It’s like smelling a real strawberry versus a strawberry-flavored candy.
Both smell like strawberries, but one is more natural and down to earth.
Plus,the clean dupehas the same lasting power as the o.g.
First, Oakcha made a commitment to every fragrance, skipping two common hormone-disrupting chemicals: parabens and phthalates.
However, a clean formulation doesn’t mean Oakcha compromises on potency.
For the perfumeheads who fawn over cult classics, this is a must-know brand.
“I couldn’t believe how similar this perfume smelled to Another 13,” says Wood.
“I actually like displaying this perfume bottle in my collection,” she adds.
Plus, you’ll save money while you’re at it.
