Wonder if these are just very watered down by alcohol perfume versions? If so I would rather just buy EDPs
I have the YSL Black Opium Hair Mist and I bought it as a cheaper way to smell like my favourite fragrance. I love it and it has the added bonus of containing Argan Oil so my hair looks extra nice!
Love perfumed hair…just the right dosage. Have played with my different perfumes, found one I love and lasts until next wash!
