Hi Mercy Alice,
Welcome to ChickAboutTown! I am glad you find my blog informative.
I recommend Sensations at Nakumatt. That’s where I found value for money. Here’s a post I wrote all about it: http://chickabouttown.com/sensations-the-fragrance-shop-at-nakumatt. If you find another good place to buy perfume, I’d love to hear all about it.
