Fortunately, there are some women’s perfumes under 30k that will lowkey having you smell irresistible without costing you too much money.

Opulent Musk by Lattafa
You want to smell like Baccarat Rouge but you can’t afford to spend your entire salary on one perfume? Then Opulent Musk by Lattafa is your best bet. It’s dizzyingly similar to Barracat, for only ₦15k.
Afnan Modest Deux Pour Femme
Omo, there’s nothing modest about this fragrance, honestly. It’s sweet and makes you smell edible, with an inviting fragrance. It’ll set you back only about ₦27k.
Afnan 9pm
Although tagged as a male perfume, this fragrance gives a feminine aura. It’s the kind of gift you buy for your boyfriend but decide to keep it for yourself because of its sweet grapefruit tone, only costing you about ₦24k.
