How long will it last on my skin?
Our 50ml Eau de Parfum is high-concentration (20% fragrance oil), so most customers get at least up to 8 hours of wear, longer on hair and clothes than on skin. Expect strong projection for the first 2–3 hours, then it settles into a closer, more personal scent. Heavier scents (oud, vanilla, woody) generally last longer than fresh/citrus scents.
Will I smell like everyone else?
No. While many of these original designer fragrances are well-known internationally, very few people in South Africa wear them daily. You'll be the one people stop to ask "what are you wearing?".
Is the bottle and packaging premium?
Yes, Glass 50ml bottles with a clean, considered label. Designed to feel good on a dresser, not to win packaging awards. We deliberately put our budget into what's inside the bottle, not designer-level marketing.
What if I don't love it?
Tell us within 14 days and we'll make it right, refund or swap for a different scent We don't want you stuck with a perfume you won't wear. Just reply to your order email or message us via WhatsApp.
Will it really smell like the original?
Yes, with one honest note. We use the same scent oils, structured the same way as the original — top, heart, and base notes. The opening is nearly identical. As the dry-down develops, you may notice ours feels slightly less complex than a R3,000–R5,000 designer version (which can use 30+ ingredients in microscopic ratios). Most customers can't tell the difference once it settles. A few experienced fragrance collectors can.
How is this different from cheaper "inspired by" perfumes I've seen? Concentration. Our oils are 20% — true Eau de Parfum strength. Many cheaper dupes use 10–15% concentration (Eau de Toilette or weaker), which is why they fade in 60–90 minutes. Ours behaves the way the original does: a real 6–8 hour wear, with proper projection.
Are these safe for sensitive skin?
Our perfumes use the same alcohol-and-fragrance-oil base as commercial designer perfumes. As with any fragrance, we recommend testing on your wrist first. If you have known fragrance sensitivities, message us before ordering and we'll guide you to gentler options in our range.
Do you ship outside South Africa?
South African delivery is our focus — free shipping over R500 and 2–4 business day delivery to major cities. International shipping is available on request; reply to any order email to ask.
What if it arrives damaged?
We pack carefully and use protective wrapping, but if anything arrives damaged, send us a photo within 7 days and we'll replace it free of charge. No back-and-forth.
Picture a sunlit Brazilian beach at golden hour. The air is warm and filled with the sweet, nutty aroma of pistachio and almond, like a creamy dessert. Tropical flowers like heliotrope and jasmine bloom nearby, their soft, powdery scent mingling with the salty sea breeze. In the background, the cozy warmth of vanilla and caramel wraps around you like a soft blanket, while sandalwood adds a subtle earthy depth. The scene is vibrant, inviting, and irresistibly sweet—perfectly capturing the essence of Brazilian Crush.
Hand poured in South Africa. This candle has a bamboo lid that can be used as a beautiful base whilst burning your candle, and then as a guard against dirt and dust between burns. The container can be repurposed once your candle has finished.
The candle comes in two sizes: 200ml (with a burn of 18- 24 hours) and 150ml size (which burns for 13.5 - 19 hours)

Candle Safety
Lighting Your Candle
The first time you use your new candle, burn for at least 2-3 hours, allowing the wax to burn evenly across the surface this will give you maximum fragrance and an even burn. Scented candles develop a ‘burn memory’ and a candle that has not been burnt right to the edges on its initial use, will ‘tunnel’ and burn unevenly through the centre of the wax.
