Purchasing a high-quality perfume will run you upwards of $100 these days—triple that price if you’re looking at luxury formulations. Luckily, affordable options that don’t sacrifice top-notch ingredients and long weartimes do exist, like Oakcha Perfumes’ “inspired by” scents. The brand’s offerings pay homage to luxury fragrance houses, but here’s the most appealing aspect: You won’t spend more than $50 on them.
Torrid Day is basically a dupe for Tom Ford’s Tobacco Vanille, while Lost in Ink resembles Taylor Swift’s Wonderstruck. The list of matching high and low options goes on, with scents inspired by that of Mugler, Diptyque and Versace—you could buy multiple options for the price of one high-end perfume.
While all the Oakcha perfumes have individually earned hundreds of glowing ratings and reviews, SWEVEN, a floral-woody-amber scent inspired by MFK’s Baccarat Rouge 540, is by far the most popular scent the retailer carries.

Much like the OG perfume, SWEVEN has notes of jasmine, saffron and cedarwood tied into a unique blend that’s housed in glass color-coated bottles with magnetic packaging—the high-quality vessel is part of its charm.
Oakcha also uses an impressively high concentration of fragrance oil in each of its perfumes, meaning you’ll get an intense depth and quality of notes, alongside longevity; you’ll stay prominently fragrant for a long time.
Over 6,000 people have given the best-seller a five-star rating, with reviews commenting on its impressive weartime and “sexy, sensual” scent. One person wrote that you can still smell the fragrance on your skin and clothes the next day, while others remark on how little you need to spritz to be engulfed in its strong scent. “I don’t think you can get any closer to the origin,” said one shopper.
“This smells stunning. I think I like it better than the original one to be honest. And for the price? Girl! I definitely like it better than the original,” said another.
Check out Oakcha Perfumes if you’re looking to build out your scent collection on a budget—you’ll have people asking you what you’re wearing repeatedly.
