· Pure Oil One Ounce, Half Ounce, Quarter Ounce & 14-day Sample Sizes

Let us introduce you to your fragrance the way it was meant to be - Pure perfume without alcohol or other useless & toxic fillers. Discover what the designer had in mind - smooth, long-lasting, rich, balanced and full of luscious aroma. Never offensive or overpowering, long lasting and balanced. They occupy only your own private space and leave a gentle trail only where you choose.

Just like jewels, pure fragrance oils vary tremendously in quality. We have put an enormous amount of effort into selecting the best possible quality pure fragrance oils of every type and the thousands of positive store and fragrance reviews are proof. We've been changing the way people think about fragrance since 1996 with many happy & beautiful smelling customers to prove it.

Day after day, customers tell us our versions smell better than the originals. Perhaps the lack of alcohol and, in many cases, higher quality oils than those found in the "original" makes the difference. Ounce for ounce, our perfume bottles contain fifteen to twenty times as much pure perfume oil as the typical Eau de Toilette, but choosing pure fragrance oils is not so much a question of saving money, as it is of getting your money's worth.

Usage:
A drop or two at most should be all you need. Unlike conventional perfumes, our oils are alcohol and filler free, so it may take a minute or two for the slowly warming scent to emit its full bouquet. The fragrance will be smoother and better balanced than any alcohol-driven aroma and well worth the wait.

Our fragrance oils last most people six to twenty-four hours, depending upon skin type, evaporating naturally during the course of the day. Our pure perfume oils also last longer in the bottle - commercial perfumes with fillers spoil, sometimes in as little as twelve months, but pure perfume oils retain their fragrance year after year.

It lacks the brightness of the real thing
I bought the shower gel, the spritz and the perfume. It does remind to Rive Gauche, but it does not have that soft enveloping fragrance, it's rather stark. If you use very little, it disappears completely in a couple of hours; if a little more, it becomes overwhelming. The original fragrance becomes a cocoon that gets softly onto your clothes, this is not it.

Grazie

Perfect
Rive Gauche is my everyday fragrance for the warmer seasons of the year. I can't think of a single circumstance for which it would not be suitable. Unfortunately this gem has been reformulated. I was quite upset because of this, until I found The Fragrance Shop,whose version of RG is very true to the original formulation. I also bought the dry oil, which is delightful. From now on all my Rive Gauche will come from The Fragrance Shop.

Delightful!!!
Rive Gauche is one of those suitable for all occasions scents and The Fragrance Shop's version is wonderful. I like to layer it with the dry oil, the body spritz, and finally topped by the oil. I usually wear this scent during the warm weather months, but it is equally lovely when the temps drop.
