Great 'cheap smell-a-like perfumes hunt' Hunt

Check out the list below of dirt-cheap dead ringers for posh perfumes sniffed out by MoneySavers, and add your own by hitting reply.

Back to the original post ...

I am doing my sister a hamper for Xmas and was going to add a small bottle of her fav perfume, D&G Light Blue. I stopped off in M&S for the sale and sniffed out the perfume. I was shocked to come across Azure Breeze which smells exactly the same as Light Blue and is £12 for 100ml! I also brought myself Next Diamonds which smells like Miss Dior Cherie.

So far, I have sniffed out the following:

Next Just Pink - Ralph Lauren Romance
Next Diamonds - Miss Dior Cherie
Next Define - Armani She
M&S True Red - Hugo Boss Deep Red
M&S Azure Breeze - D&G Light Blue
M&S Isis - L'eau de Issey
Zara Collection - Chanel Chance

Anyone have any others they can add? x

Thanks for this! I like L'eau d'Issey but hardly ever buy perfume as I can't justify the cost. Must check these out...

Beketaten

In addition to those above, here are some of the dupes I have found in these stores:

M&S Sensuale = Chanel Allure
M&S Butterfly = Marc Jacobs Daisy
M&S Per Una Limited Edition = Chanel Coco Mademoiselle

Next Signature = Chanel Coco Mademoiselle
Next Flowers = Marc Jacobs Daisy
Next Just Pink = Ralph Lauren Romance

Benson

M&S also do one that is the same as ralph lauren Romance. It's one of the autograph perfumes. I've got both the m&s one and the RL one and they're practically identical!

Do you find the cheaper ones don't last as long? I love armani elle and have been searching for a deal for about a week.

Beketaten

I found another today!

Next Rock Couture = Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb
