Review of Jubilee Scents


Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Mileage will be dependent on the specific fragrance.

I'm a Chanel man so bought a few dupes to see if I could get a cruelty-free alternative.

The first was "inspired by Bleu" which came up when I Googled dupes of Bleu de Chanel (that's how I found the site). I still have a bottle of the real thing so did a squirt on each arm to compare. Now in fairness my real Bleu is the EDP, and I don't know what version Jubilee's is inspired by - it might be based on the EDT instead for all I know. Personally I much prefer my authentic Chanel EDP, but that's not necessarily a criticism if Jubilee had accurately replicated the EDT instead. Jubilee's is lighter/fresher, where as my real EDP is heavier/darker.

The second was inspired by Allure Homme and whilst I consumed my bottle of the real thing some years ago, it is how I remember the real thing (i.e. very nice) and my girlfriend loves it.

The third was Egoiste Platinum that I got free as part of the buy two get the third free offer. I've never smelt the real thing, but I absolutely love this fragrance. My girlfriend REALLY loves it. I told her that I thought it was more of an office fragrance, and she said "no it's definitely a bedroom fragrance"! Well....top marks for that one then!

So regardless of accuracy, I'd buy the inspired by Allure Homme and Egoiste Platinum again. Very nice fragrances and can't go wrong at that price.

Longevity doesn't seem noticeably different to original fragrances to me. At a third of the cost, I'd just reapply as there is no need to be stingy with it. I decanted them into mini atomiser bottles that I feel spray better than Jubilee's (and other dupe sellers) bottles, so I always have some on me.
