With imported designer fragrances now costing Rs. 35,000 to Rs. 130,000+, impression perfumes in Pakistan have become the smartest way to build a luxury fragrance wardrobe. However, not all impression brands are equal: many local oil-and-alcohol mixes smell harsh in the first 10 minutes and disappear as soon as you step outdoors.
At Scentury, we use the French maceration process to mature high-grade Eau de Parfum (EDP) oils specifically for Pakistan’s warm weather. Here is your cheat sheet to matching your favorite world-famous designer fragrance with its Scentury counterpart:

FAQs
Are perfume impressions legal in Pakistan?
Yes. An impression is a fragrance made to resemble the scent profile of a designer perfume without using its name, trademark or packaging. This is different from a counterfeit, which illegally copies a brand’s name and packaging to pass itself off as the original.
Do impression perfumes last as long as the originals?
A well-made impression built as an Eau de Parfum with proper maceration can match or come close to the original’s longevity. Scentury’s EDPs are tested for 6 to 8 plus hours of wear in Pakistan’s heat.
Which Scentury perfume is closest to Dior Sauvage?
Zarb is our Dior Sauvage impression, with the same bergamot, black pepper and ambroxan profile for Rs. 2,299.
