Redditor knows that not all dupes are created equal.

"I have tons from Oil Perfumery and generally love them, though I’ve had some duds too," she said.

She also explained how she has turned many of the rollerballs into sprays, something which has ";improved projection significantly."

Their trick involved buying bottles from Amazon and using grain alcohol in a 25/75 oil-to-alcohol ratio.

Black Orchid was one scent she believed had particularly good projection.

"I’ve received compliments from several rollers so people smell them," she said.

"The way I wear them is I apply the oil then spread with body lotion. It feels luxurious and then I’m wearing amazing scented body lotion," she added.

"Lasting power is typically very good with their product."
