It's always fantastic when local mums get in touch with me via my blog asking me to help them with their businesses: I love supporting local, and I especially love supporting fellow mums!
Local mum Andrea got in touch a few weeks back. She had recently signed up as an FM Fragrances distributor to get back into work that's also flexible around her home-life. And she wanted me to sample a few of the FM fragrances and blog about it! So here we go!
FM Fragrances sell perfumes (ladies and gents), via local distributors like Andrea, that are equivalent in scent to designer products but without the designer price. It's similar to a no-frills version of your designer scent! There's no expensive branding, no fancy bottle, no celebrity endorsement: just the same perfume oils to give you an indistinguishable scent.
What impressed me the most is the length of time the scent remained on my skin! Normally I would have to re-spray at lunchtime time, but the FM versions stayed til early evening.
For March 2015, these are the top five selling fragrances at FM
1) #18 (Ladies) which is equivalent to Chanel Coco Mademoiselle
Average high street price £53 (35ml)
FM price £11.99 (30ml)
20% concentrate
2) #20 (Ladies) which is equivalent to Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb
Average high street price £61 (50ml)
FM price £11.99 (30ml)
20% concentrate
3) #457 (Men's) which is equivalent to Paco Rabanne Invictus
Average high street price £44 (50ml)
FM price £11.99 (50ml)
16% concentrate
4) #199 (Men's) which is equivalent to Paco Rabanne One Million
Average high street price £51 (50ml)
FM price £16.99 (100ml)
16% concentrate
5) #313 (Ladies) which is equivalent to Paco Rabanne Lady Million
Average high street price £44 (50ml)
FM price £24.99 (50ml)
20% concentrate
I was able to sample the above five fragrances, and my favourite was definitely #20: it had a sweet yet gently-floral scent that lasted all day.
I do really want to stress that FM fragrances are not fakes or copies: they simply take the perfume oil elements from a brand, as a smell cannot be trademarked. And none of their products are tested on animals! (Thank you!)
Would you love to know more, or make an order? Contact Andrea via her Facebook page! And if you are local to South Gloucestershire or Bristol, Andrea can even host a FM Fragrance Party for you and your friends! Please do let Andrea know you saw her details via the Jelly Rose blog, thank you.
