A Manchester-registered shop that bottles inspired-by Eau de Parfum in England
Noted Aromas, styled on the storefront as Noted. Aromas, sells original Eau de Parfum inspired by famous designer and niche bottles rather than licensed originals. The shop at notedaromas.co.uk is run by Noted Aromas Ltd, company number 11481284, incorporated on 24 July 2018. Terms last updated 30 June 2026 name the registered office at 378-380 Deansgate, Manchester, M3 4LY, and VAT number 312085245. Companies House records control by Na Bidco Limited from 8 September 2025. The about page says the juices are made and bottled in the United Kingdom and written to follow E.U. cosmetic safety recommendations. Treat the range as wearable scent, not medical aromatherapy.
The FAQ is blunt: these are not the designer juices. Perfumers study popular profiles and blend original interpretations in a UK lab, aiming for a similar mood or scent family. The company says no fragrance can be a 100 percent match, including a luxury house's own batches over time. All wear-on-skin sprays are Eau de Parfum with a minimum 20 percent fragrance concentration. Listings flag vegan-friendly, cruelty-free fragrance oils. Product pages add that names and copyrights belong to their owners and that Noted Aromas has no affiliation with those manufacturers. If you want the exact department-store bottle, this cart is the wrong place.
City names instead of designer logos
Instead of printing a famous maison on the glass, the shop names bottles after cities and maps each one to a well-known reference. On 17 September 2026, bestsellers included Monte Carlo inspired by Baccarat Rouge, Rome inspired by Creed Aventus For Him, Riyadh inspired by Ombre Nomade, New York inspired by Santal 33, Lisbon inspired by Sauvage, Berlin inspired by Oud Wood, Ankara inspired by Halfeti, and Havana inspired by Tobacco Vanille. Further listings included Tokyo after Lost Cherry, Bangkok after Black Opium, and Rio after Black Orchid. A five-vial unisex set listed Bogota, Tortuga, Doha, Havana, and Ibiza.
Vials, 100 millilitre bundles, and the rest of the bathroom shelf
Wear-on-skin juice is sold in 5 millilitre vials, 50 millilitre bottles, and 100 millilitre bottles. Discovery is the stated on-ramp, with pre-selected 5 millilitre sets or mix-and-match vials. Once you know a city name, the shop pushes two- and three-bottle bundles. Terms of sale also list body lotions, shower gels, reed diffusers, and candles. On 17 September 2026, 250 millilitre shower gels were 9.99 pounds, with several lines such as Bangkok, Lisbon, Riyadh, and Havana reduced to 5.99 pounds. Candy Cane and Gingerbread diffusers were 14.99 pounds. Rio and Gingerbread candles were 14.99 pounds and sold out. The wax-melt collection page showed no live products that day.

Who this cart is for, and who should walk past
This shop fits a UK buyer who already likes a famous profile, wants a cheaper daily driver, and will treat the bottle as an interpretation. Payment options in the terms include most major cards, PayPal, Clearpay, and Klarna. If you have never smelled the reference juice, start with a 5 millilitre vial even though samples cannot be returned. Skip the site if you need the authentic designer bottle, original packaging for resale, a smelling strip in a shop, or in-person collection. Skip shower gels and 5 millilitre vials if you want a no-questions refund. Skip it if you live outside the United Kingdom: UK terms and the FAQ say the pound checkout currently ships within the United Kingdom only.
There is a separate Ireland euro storefront and an international refund page naming NA Europe Limited, company number 17113046, as seller for some non-UK deliveries; that is a different checkout, not a promise that the pound cart will post to your door. Collection is not offered. The FAQ says the London office does not hold stock and the warehouse is not set up for walk-in pickup. The registered office at 378-380 Deansgate is an office, not a try-on counter. Some product footers still print 86-90 Paul Street, London EC2A 4NE; do not treat that as a shop. People with fragrance allergies should read INCI lists rather than marketing notes.
Check the live 50 millilitre and 100 millilitre prices, confirm the United Kingdom shipping selector, and start with a 5 millilitre vial if you have not worn that city name before.
Open Noted Aromas →Checkout, couriers, and the five-day dispatch clock
Checkout is a Shopify cart. You offer to buy; an order-confirmation email is only an acknowledgement. The contract forms when they email a dispatch confirmation, and only for the lines in that email. Prices are in pounds sterling, inclusive of VAT, with delivery added unless the basket clears the free-shipping threshold. Orders cannot be edited or cancelled after placement, including address changes. Dispatch is aimed within five working days, Monday to Friday, from a UK warehouse. Orders after 12 pm Friday, at weekends, or on bank holidays start the next working day. The FAQ quotes delivery one to four working days after dispatch, with extra time for Highlands and Islands; the shipping policy quotes two to four working days plus extra for Northern Ireland.
Named services include Royal Mail Tracked 24 and Tracked 48, Evri Tracked 24 and 48, Evri Pick Up, and DPD Express. Tracked 24 and Tracked 48 are product names, not a promise of arrival inside 24 or 48 hours. DPD Express is estimated at one to two working days. Tracking arrives by email at dispatch; check junk. If a courier marks the parcel delivered and you cannot find it, check neighbours and safe places first, then email within seven days of the delivery date. Do not post returns to the Deansgate office listed on the website. Support is email-first at contact@notedaromas.co.uk, aiming to reply within one working day.
Noted Aromas is useful when you already know the reference scent and want a UK-made Eau de Parfum at a much lower ticket. It is a poor first buy if you need the designer bottle, a smelling strip in a shop, or a refund on a 5 millilitre vial that missed the mark.

The two-spray return window, and the lines that never come back
Full-size perfumes can come back within 30 days for a refund or exchange if you have used only a spray or two. Used beyond that, or outside the window, and the bottle is sent back to you. Return postage is yours on change of mind. Email contact@notedaromas.co.uk first; do not ship to the website address, which the refund policy calls an office that will bounce parcels. Use a tracked service and keep the receipt, because lost returns are your problem. Processing is generally within a week of receipt. Exchanges are limited to once per order unless the goods are faulty. Bundles must come back as a full set for a refund; otherwise you get an exchange or a prorated figure that unwinds the bundle saving.
Several lines are carved out. Five millilitre samples, shower gels, lotions, used candles, used wax melts, and used diffusers without caps cannot be returned. Gift sets and advent calendars are excluded on product-page return copy. Free promotional extras cannot be returned alone; if a return drops you below the gift threshold, send the unused gift back or its retail value is deducted. Statutory UK cooling-off sits beside the shop policy: terms say you must tell them within 14 days of delivery to change your mind under that right. For damage or a wrong order, photograph packaging and bottles and email within seven days. Consumer Rights Act rights for faulty goods are summarised on the terms page.
What these bottles will not do
Longevity is the usual fight on inspired-by juice. The company says Eau de Parfum is built to last hours, sometimes all day, then caveats skin chemistry, weather, and how you spray. Independent Trustpilot reviews of notedaromas.co.uk sat at about 4.7 from 10,885 reviews when checked, with praise for value and likeness and complaints that some bottles fade fast or do not smell like the reference. Monte Carlo's own mix includes people who say it lasts and people who say it vanished in under an hour. High oil load can stain clothes; spray skin, not fabric. Test a vial before you lock a 100 millilitre three-pack.
Frequently asked questions
Are Noted Aromas bottles the same juice as the designer perfume?
No. Noted Aromas says its juices are original creations inspired by well-known luxury scents, not the designer formulas in licensed bottles. Perfumers analyse a popular profile and blend an interpretation that aims for a similar mood or family, then test it in a UK lab. The FAQ answers the identical-to-designer question with a straight no, adding that even a luxury house's own juice can drift as harvests change. Product pages repeat that names and copyrights belong to their owners and that the shop has no affiliation with those manufacturers. Treat city names as a map, not a counterfeit label. If a close match matters more than price, spray the original at a retailer first.
Do they ship to Ireland, the Channel Islands, or further afield?
The UK FAQ and the terms of sale both say the notedaromas.co.uk checkout is for United Kingdom orders. Terms last updated 30 June 2026 state that the site does not accept orders from or deliver to addresses outside the United Kingdom. The FAQ adds that they are working on expanding. The live storefront can switch markets, including Ireland in euro, plus Guernsey, Jersey, and the Isle of Man. Ireland and other non-UK destinations are described on a separate refund page as sold by NA Europe Limited, company number 17113046. If your address is not a UK delivery point, do not assume the pound cart will ship. Switch the country selector and read that checkout's seller and shipping before you pay.
What if the parcel is damaged or marked delivered but missing?
For damage, the FAQ asks you to email contact@notedaromas.co.uk within seven days with photos of the outer packaging, photos of the damaged items, and the visible fragrance names, and to keep all packaging until they confirm next steps. For a wrong order, email within seven days with a photo of everything received and your packing slip. If tracking says delivered and you have nothing, check neighbours and any safe place first, because many couriers do no-contact drops. If it is still missing, contact the shop within seven days of the delivery date so they can investigate with the courier. They say they will resend if delivery is found non-compliant.
How do I send back a 50 millilitre or 100 millilitre bottle I dislike?
Email contact@notedaromas.co.uk to start the return. Do not post the bottle to the Deansgate office printed on the site. You have 30 days, and only a spray or two of testing; more use than that, and they say they will send the bottle back. Return postage is yours unless the terms treat the goods as faulty, in which case they may supply a prepaid label. Use a tracked service and keep the receipt, because they are not responsible for returns lost in transit. Bundles must come back complete for a refund, or you get an exchange or a prorated figure. Five millilitre vials, shower gels, used candles, and used diffusers without caps sit outside this path.
Open the live catalogue for Monte Carlo, Havana, Rome, and mix-and-match bundles, then place a UK order only after you accept the two-spray return rule and the non-returnable 5 millilitre vials.
Shop current Noted Aromas bottles →A last check on samples versus bundles
If you already know Monte Carlo or Havana on your skin, a 100 millilitre mix-and-match three-pack at the listed 64.99 pounds is the value play, and it usually clears the 44.99 pound free-shipping line. If you are guessing, pay for 5 millilitre vials first and accept that those samples will not come back. Confirm the country selector is United Kingdom, the postcode is right, and you are not stacking promo codes, because the FAQ says codes cannot be combined and do not apply to already-discounted bundles. Keep the dispatch email. If a pump fails or a bottle arrives smashed, photograph it within seven days.
