That is such a tiny list it doesn't even scratch the surface. (But it is a good start!)

All I will say is while buying European is certainly much better than US brands, our glorious u/blaze posted recently about how LVMH bent the knee on DEI policies.

Therefore people please don't give your money to those luxury brands! Buy dupes! I've created a UK perfume community, I'll pin some good European dupes sellers.

Also, Tom Ford perfumes are insanely overhyped and overpriced. Vanilla Sex smells of cat pee!

Edit: didn't realise you were the op Blaze, I'm a silly goose.

Pariisiparfuum.ee is a dupe reseller for Estonia. Think the dupes come from Poland.

2009 just called and Armani Code is still a banger.

Jean Paul Gaultier is subjectively top quality too. His Fleur de Male is perhaps the best fragrance I've ever had.

That said, I'm still happy with Davidoff Cool Water so I'm hardly a modern fragrance critic.
