Both brands make Parfum-strength dupes in the UK, so this comes down to three numbers. Aromara prints its concentration (35% Extrait), guarantees 7+ hours in writing, and refunds for 60 days even after you have worn it. Aramic sells 50ml bottles at £25 or any 3 for £60, says "Parfum concentration" with no percentage, estimates 6 to 8 hours, and takes returns for 14 days if the bottle is unused. Everything on this page was checked on both brands' own sites in September 2026.
The quickest way to test the claim is our current best seller. Imaginaire, our take on Imagination by Louis Vuitton. 35% Extrait, 7+ hours guaranteed, 60-day money-back. Try the 5ml for £6.99, or the 50ml at £40 (buy any 2, get 1 free).
The guarantee in one line: if an Aromara spray does not last 7 hours on your skin, or you can tell it from the original, you have 60 days to send it back for a full refund, worn or not. Two sizes, 5ml at £6.99 and 50ml at £40. Buy any 2, get 1 free on everything.

Where Aramic is strong
Aramic is a proper operation. UK-blended, cruelty-free, with ready-made discovery sets and a clean 3 for £60 deal that beats Aromara on per-bottle price. Nearly 13,000 five-star reviews is real social proof. And credit for honesty: their own FAQ says 6 to 8 hours of wear rather than promising the moon. If you want a solid UK Parfum dupe at £20 a bottle in a bundle, Aramic is a genuine option.
Where Aromara wins
- The number is published. Both brands claim Parfum strength. Only Aromara puts the figure, 35%, in writing so you can hold us to it.
- The longer wear promise. Aromara guarantees 7+ hours in writing. Aramic estimates 6 to 8. If ours quits early, you get paid, not apologised to.
- A guarantee you can actually use. Aramic gives you 14 days and wants the bottle back unused. Aromara gives you 60 days and refunds even after you have worn it.
- Cheaper to try. A 5ml sampler of the exact scent is £6.99. Aramic's route in is a full bottle or a set.
- Two sizes, one job. 5ml to test, 50ml to commit. No guessing from a sealed box.
So which should you buy?
Buy Aramic if you want a UK Parfum dupe at £20 a bottle in a 3-bottle bundle and you are confident in your pick, because once it is open it is yours. Buy Aromara if you want the percentage in writing, the enforceable 7+ hour promise, and the freedom to change your mind for 60 days after wearing it. Can you tell the difference from the original? Try the 5ml. If you can, the guarantee has your back.
