It comes after keen Home Bargains shoppers have spotted a special product on shelves which they claim is a dupe of a designer body wash.
The "lush" 99p shower gel is apparently "exactly like Thierry Mugler Alien", an expensive designer perfume brand that also makes lotions and shower products.
One savvy customer shared a pic of the XALIEN product on Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK.
Hundreds flocked to the comments to exclaim about how much they'd loved the shower gel - going for £29 less than the designer version.
One woman wrote: "I’ve bought this on my holiday to Morocco it smells amazing."
Someone else said "It's lush", and another customer said the fragrance really lasts on her skin.
However one woman warned other shoppers about potential reactions to the product.
She said: "Smells ok but wouldn't recommend if you have sensitive skin."

Are dupes worth it?
THE Sun asked an independent perfume expert to carry out blind smell tests of popular perfumes and their high street “dupes” to see if the budget versions lived up to the originals.
Noemie Maury is a senior fragrance evaluator who has worked with major fine fragrance and toiletries brands for over a decade.
"High street chains can create perfumes cheaply by buying them from big fragrance manufacturers which grow their own ingredients in-house," says Noemie.
"Because they use oils from flowers they grow themselves instead of importing ingredients, they save on costs and can create fragrances for high street brands at a discount price."
It means they can lack the depth and complexity of more expensive brands which use a wide variety of more expensive ingredients.
