The Common Scents and their other company perfume-oils has gone down hill. i'D BEEN A CUSTOMER FOR MANY YEARS
I just made a purchase.
THERE is NO scent to their the oils anymore.
They OVERCHARGE for shipping.

BUYER BEWARE!!!
FIND A DIFFERENT SUPPLIER.
EACH PURCHASE OVER THE LAST COUPLE YEARS HAS GOTTEN WORSE AND WORSE. THIS ONE HAS no SCENT AT ALL. (no covid)
THEY ARE CURRENTLY ACTIVELY RIPPING PEOPLE OFF.

These are a must try
First, let me start out with if you think you are going to pay 3 to 6 bucks for the exact match to Tom Ford's lost cherry which is around 75 bucks for a 10 ml spray well I have a few items that I want to sell you!! Ok, now on to the review. I have a pretty decent collection of cologne and perfume for my wife. We have large bottles and many 5 to 10 ml decants or travel sprays. I found this site after first going to perfume parlour which is a UK-based store that has a very large selection of oils and sprays that are their version of just about any fragrance you can think of. They are however more difficult to get shipped here to the US so I looked elsewhere. I found thecommonscents and I was happy with the selection. After checking out the site I ordered 12 bottles of 1oz glass rollerball oils and the same 12 scents in 10ml glass sprays. I wanted to compare. Packaged shipped the next day after ordered and arrived 2 days later. The items were very well packed in a zip lock bag, wrapped in bubble wrap, and taped. Opened everything and there were no leaks or anything broken in fact the oils had a seal around the lid and bottle, super happy with the whole packaging. Next, I opened the spray bottles and gave a spritz in the towel and then a spritz on a perfume paper test strip. I bought them on amazon so I could get a better grasp on scents as they dry. Every single one was close to or almost the same as the actual fragrance. There was a note missing or it was a little softer but not one was awful or did not smell anything like the original, in fact, the Creed Aventus version I liked better than then the original version. I then went back 20 min later to smell the papers and everyone of them was still going strong. It was a few hours before the fade was really noticeable. I then went on to the oils and just from smelling the rollerball the scents were fantastic. They were even more accurate than the sprays. I put some on the paper test strips and did the same as the sprays. I have to say the oils were even more pleasant and you could pick out more of the notes at one time rather than waiting for the spray to dry and then get the middle notes. As for the lasting power, well 6 hours later and the scent barely faded. Are these oils and sprays the exact copy, uh no, however they are very good versions, in fact, more than a few, in my opinion, were better than the original, then you add the price and well all I can say is that I have already started to design how I will be storing my new collection. I will be buying more. one more thing when it comes to projection the oils are not meant to do this so, as I have learned and what I did with my first test and wearing which was very good, is to get both an oil roll-on and a spray of what scents you like to project. then you can put on the oil which will last all day and you can have a spray that will give you the projection. Best of both worlds.

If I could give negative stars I would
If I could give negative stars I would. The products smell nothing like the original scents they are imitating. The products come damaged and they want me to spend my money to ship them back for an exchange. This company is a joke and buy all the good reviews they have posted. Customer service is the worst too. Stay far away from this company and their crappy products

I love their products!
I've ordered from this company many times for about four years now. I've only ordered the oils. I've never had an issue with any of my orders.

This company Is full of watered down…
This company Is full of watered down partially lightly scented Containers. If you buy from them then your simply buying the bottle or whatever they're shipping you ... They go buy different names as well so just stay clear all together and find a local supplier.
Good Luck All
