Fragrance fans hit M&S for budget dupes – including one that’s £116 cheaper than the designer original | The Sun

WE all love a designer perfume.

But very few of us are keen on the price tag that they usually come with.



And amid the cost of living crisis, people are searching high and low for dupes to save themselves some cash.

But one place you might not have thought of looking in is your local Marks & Spencer.

One of the branches, in the Meadowhall shopping centre in Sheffield, took to TikTok to share a video detailing some of their fragrance dupes.

"Do you know about these dupes in M&S?" they wrote over their video, before listing their fragrances and what they are dupes of.

"Midnight Blossom – Black Opium," they wrote.

Just 90ml of Yves Saint Laurent's Black Opium costs £91.80, while the 100ml size of Marks and Spencer's perfumes cost £9.50.

Next up, Velvet Rose is a dupe of Chanel No. 5 – which costs a staggering £126 for 100ml.

If you're a fan of Paco Rabanne's Lady Million, you'll want to pick up the Warm Neroli fragrance, and you'll be saving yourself £78.50 in the process.

Pink Pepper is a dupe for Lancome's La Vie Est Belle, while Soft Iris is their take on Chanel's Coco Mademoiselle.

And if Le Labo's Santal 33 is your scent of choice, you could give Marks and Spencer's Apothecary Warmth a try.

The designer Eau de Parfum costs an incredible £157 for 50ml, compared to M&S' £9.50 dupe.

"Gonna try these as I have all the proper ones so I let you all know," one person commented on the video.

As another added: "Obsessed with Pink Pepper!"

"Yesssss thanks for this," someone else wrote.

But others weren't quite as convinced, insisting the M&S dupes don't last long compared to the designer scents.
