The perfume market is booming with an array of incredible scents for both men and women. From luxury fragrances to budget-friendly perfume and even celebrity perfume lines, there’s plenty of choice when it comes to finding the perfect fragrance for your signature scent. If you’re a lover of popular high-end brands such as YSL, Tom Ford, Carolina Herrera, and Acqua Di Parma, but don’t want to break the bank, these fabulous fragrances are the ultimate perfume dupes for recreating the scent of iconic fragrances at much more wallet friendly prices.
Cloud by Ariana Grande
Possibly one of the most famous celebrity fragrances of the last few years, Ariana Grande’s Cloud took the beauty industry by storm. Not only are fragrance lovers a big fan of the uplifting sweet scent, but the brilliant price tag too! At only £37.99 for a 50ml Eau de parfum, this women’s fragrance is incredible value for money.
To add the cherry to the top of the cake, many refer to Ariana’s iconic fragrance as a dupe for the highly regarded MFK's Baccarat Rouge 540. A fan favourite and a popular fragrance amongst A-list stars, Baccarat Rouge 540 is one of the most sought after fragrances in the beauty world. With a little help from social media, this fragrance went viral and is now on top of many a wishlist. For those on a budget however, Cloud is the ultimate dupe and is simply brilliant in its own right too!
Sarah Jessica Parker’s Lovely Perfume
Although dupes aren’t always exact matches, there are many fragrances that share very similar notes and are often compared. Take SJP’s Lovely for example, many fragrance fanatics compare this celebrity fragrance to Narcisco Rodrigue For Her. The two fragrances share the same fragrance type - floral oriental. Both combining notes of orange, musk, amber and bergamot, Lovely could certainly be considered a dupe. With prices starting from £12.99 for a 30ml you would certainly be making a great saving.
Estee Lauder Bronze Goddess
Despite their popularity it’s true that Tom Ford fragrances are at the higher end of the fragrance market. With prices well over £100, these much-loved scents are to be desired by many. However, this doesn’t mean you can’t smell just as good with a handy dupe from another fan favourite - Estee Lauder. Whilst being a luxury beauty brand in their own right, Estee Lauder’s Bronze Goddess fragrance has been compared to the popular summer fragrance, Tom Ford Soleil Blanc.
Launched a year apart and sharing similar notes, these two fragrances are certainly comparable. And with Estee Lauder priced at £76.99 for 100ml, while Tom Ford will set you back £245.99 for the same size bottle, there are savings to be had!
David Beckham - Homme
We can’t forget about cologne. With one of the most famous scents of all time being the luxurious Dior Sauvage, we had to include its incredible fragrance dupe in our list. It’s often said that the signature fragrance from David Beckham - Homme, is an excellent dupe for the pricier Dior Sauvage. A woody fragrance type, Beckham released this scent back in 2011, and at an incredible price, it is still popular to this day.
