Looks art nouveau.

I've had a look hut still can't find the exact one, so confusing lol

Agreed... art nouveau fashion button (or brooch, depending on size and the configuration of the back) and likely late Victorian or Edwardian. Similar to this button, although with the lady facing the other way:

You may never find an exact match, since so many types were produced.

Agree... it's unreasonably large for a button or even a brooch. But not unreasonably large for a belt buckle, sash buckle or some other form of personal adornment.
