Eden Perfumes and Aromara are both UK-made, and both cost a fraction of the designer originals. Eden is a Brighton brand known for 100% vegan, natural fragrances. Aromara is a small-batch maker built on one idea, the strongest disclosed dupe you can buy. Here is an honest, like-for-like comparison.
Quick verdict: Eden Perfumes makes clean, natural, fully vegan scents at Eau de Parfum strength, and it discloses 15%. Aromara goes a category higher, a disclosed 35% Extrait, with a 7+ hour wear promise and a 60-day money-back guarantee. If you want the most natural, botanical option, Eden is a lovely pick. If you want the strongest disclosed concentration and the longest guarantee, Aromara has the edge.

Where Eden Perfumes is strong
Eden is the natural choice, quite literally. Every scent is 100% vegan and built from botanical ingredients, with no parabens, no phthalates and no synthetic preservatives. They have a real shop in Brighton, they offer refillable bottles to cut waste, and they sell a big 100ml size. If you want the cleanest, most natural formula and a brand you can visit in person, Eden is a genuinely good option.
Where Aromara wins
- A higher disclosed number. Aromara discloses 35% Extrait. Eden discloses 15% Eau de Parfum. Both are honest and both publish a figure, and 35% is the higher one.
- A category higher on strength. Aromara is an Extrait de Parfum. Eden's range is Eau de Parfum. Extrait is the more concentrated category.
- A wear promise in writing. Aromara guarantees 7+ hours. Eden says long-lasting but gives no hour figure.
- A longer, wear-and-return guarantee. Aromara gives you 60 days to get your money back, even after you have worn it. Eden takes back unused items only, and you cover the return postage.
- Test for less. Aromara's 5ml sampler is £4.99. Eden's smallest bottle is 30ml at £18. You can try Aromara's 35% Extrait for a fraction of that.
So which should you buy?
If you want the most natural, fully vegan formula and a Brighton brand you can walk into, Eden Perfumes is a lovely choice. If you want the strongest disclosed concentration, a stronger strength category, and a 60-day money-back guarantee, choose Aromara. Both beat paying full designer prices. The easiest way to decide is to try a 5ml sampler and see how long it lasts on your skin.
