Tesco Designer Perfume Dupes

I've just been into Tesco and they have the most incredible new line in perfumes. Gorgeous scents which smell just like the real thing. I bought 100ml Skin Saints Rouge for £7.00 with my Club Card and it smells just like Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 which retails for £242per 100ml saving £235.00. They had loads, Passion smells just like Carolina Herrera Good Girl, Cerise like Tom Ford Lost Cherry and Santal is exactly like Le Labo Santal 33. They even had some for men like Wild which honestly you would think is Dior Sauvage and Principle just like Creed Aventus!! Perfect gift for Valentine's Day or with Mother's Day coming up grab a bargain!!

Personally I've found that a lot of these 'smelly likeys' do indeed smell like the originals when first sprayed on but unlike the proper thing the smell fades to nothing after a really short time2

I have to say that the one I bought is really lasting well. Besides at £7.00 a bottle I can afford to spray more liberally than a £250 bottle!1

More expensive scents tend to have Ambergris added to them (substance produced by Sperm Whales). Ambergris makes scents last longer but is an expensive ingredient.
Aldi and Lidl also produce their own scents which i feel are great value for money (i once had a scent called Bolt which smelt like Hugo Boss).
I have a tendency to mute most posts so if your expecting me to respond you might be waiting along time!0
