There is something extraordinary about perfumes. Not only are they a true depiction of our personality but they also reveal so much about our choices. With so many celebrity churning, branded and non-branded perfumes storming the racks, it becomes hard to choose just one.
Moreover, getting our hands on the best long-lasting scent is a true struggle, especially when you are on a budget. Nonetheless, we have sniffed our way to the best original perfumes which smell awesome, are not too pricey and are easily available in Pakistan. Check them out!
J. Fragrances (Junaid Jamshed)
If you need high quality perfumes which last long and are totally mesmerizing, J. is your one stop shop. J. sells timeless fragrances for both men and women. Easily earning the top spot in our list, J. has some of the most iconic scents I simply can’t keep my hand off.
Moreover, honestly speaking, I haven’t felt the need to buy high-end expensive foreign perfumes since I’ve discovered these. J. scents have a blend of aromatic notes which last all day whether it is hot and humid or cold and breezy.
