DESIGNER fragrances can be a pricey investment.
But you can switch up your summer scent with these incredible budget-friendly dupes.
INTENSE HEAT: Prada’s Paradoxe is a luxurious, heady, summer scent, but at £69 for 30ml it’s a real splurge.
Instead, head to Zara, where you’ll find Sublime Epoque, a fragrance strikingly similar to Prada’s offering.
At £22.99 for 80ml, this dupe is just a fraction of the price, making it a must-have for your fragrance collection.
SUMMER SUN: Estee Lauder’s Bronze Goddess is a beauty editor favourite, known for its coconut, vanilla and amber notes.

But at £58 for 50ml, it’s a costly addition to your beauty bag.
Enter Next’s Yellow Summer Sun fragrance, a fantastic clone that lasts all day and costs just £24 for 200ml.
With its long-lasting scent and summery vibe, it’s a perfect alternative to pricey options.
TROPICAL PARADISE: Sol de Janeiro’s Brazilian Crush 62 perfume mist is a cult favourite, thanks to its warm, beachy, caramel notes.

At £24 for 90ml, it’s not the cheapest.
But for a more budget-friendly option, check out Poundland’s Brazilian Bliss body spray for just £1.
For a similar scent with added benefits, Bristows Sol Fiesta Heat Protection Spray at £1.99 is another great pick.
And for a dupe of the new Sol de Janeiro Cheriosa 68 scent (£22, John Lewis), Aldi has launched the Lacura Tropical Essence body mist, £2.99.
FLOWER POWER: Gucci Bloom is a popular choice for summer, but at £68 for 30ml, it’s a hefty investment.
M&S has recently launched its Discover Sunrise fragrance, which offers a similar floral scent in a stylish ombre bottle.
Priced at just £10 for 100ml, it’s a steal. Although it’s in high demand and currently out of stock online, you can still find it in stores.
MUSK HAVE: For men, Paco Rabanne’s One Million is a classic, yet at £66 it’s not cheap.
Superdrug’s Artiscent Atelier range offers a fantastic alternative with Musk Dore.
Priced at just £15 for 100ml, it provides a similar scent profile, allowing you to enjoy a luxury fragrance experience without the luxury price tag.
