Brilliant Product

Great service, and brilliant product! I’ve tried a sample pack and also a larger AV bottle. The fragrances are absolutely spot on!

Finally found the perfect dupe!

I bought a bottle from Based Fragrances a few months back and wanted to wait before reviewing to be sure of a few things ( I went for BR).
I used to work for a fragrance company so I'm always so skeptical about fragrances but WOW, this really smashed it out the bag.
- it smells identical (i had the original on one arm and this on the other for a day to be sure)
- it really has that lasting power
- it's affordable
it's now my daily fragrance, I am so happy with it and it's nice to be able to save some money without sacrificing something that makes you feel good.

A holy grail fragrance!

For years, I’ve been a die-hard fan of the original Baccarat Rouge 540, but let’s face it - it’s a splurge. Thanks to Based, I’ve discovered a perfect clone with the exact same scent and lasting power. It’s a trusty sidekick that stays with you all day and even hangs around in your hair for an encore the next day! Huge bonus that it doesn’t break the bank either!

Will definitely buy again!

Tried a few of the ‘inspired by’ companies and these are 100% one of the best - the packaging looks class (good as a gift for my brother). Bottles are also much nicer than others Ive tried, normally they have a cheesy logo and are cheap looking but these can actually be left out on a shelf.
The smell is a spot-on dupe and lasts for ages. (I’ve tried them all now, BR is the favourite).
Slightly more expensive than some others but well worth a few quid for the quality/looks, and still loads cheaper than the real stuff.
Delivery was quick, website easy to use.
Hopefully they bring out some new smells soon cause want to try more!

I’m getting tonnes of compliments. Would highly recommend!

Amazed by the quality! Smells so so good, just like the real deal if not better. Love the design and delivery was super quick. I got the SV fragrance and I’ve had tonnes of compliments on it. Wear it daily as at this price - you can afford to! Will definitely try the rest of the Based range. I’d highly recommend!

Really Good

Absolute quality fragrance. Deffo lasts all day and more. Had loads of compliments and people thinking they are the originals. 🥲 Better than other dupes I’ve tried for sure. Well worth a go.

Smells Amazing!!!

Having tried a few imitation fragrances they can sometimes smell weak or fade pretty quickly. Based however are much stronger and it'll last all day.

Very happy with my purchase!
