Flankers are like "spin-offs" of an original fragrance... For instance, Chanel No.5 Eau Premiere is a flanker of No.5...

There's the original perfume- say Alien, or Omnia- then a load of others get released, like variations on a theme. Examples- Omnia Jade, Amythest etc, or Alien Sunessence. They are alternative versions of the original, like a lighter summery version or an 'evening' version. The bottles are usually the same but in different colours. Some are great and some are definitely not!
