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.
You’ll save £62, making it an affordable yet luxurious gift, available in Primark stores.
The perfume made waves on Facebook's infamous Extreme Couponing and Bargaining group when one user posted her lucky find.
The savvy shopper also mentioned isn't the only great dupe Primark has in store.
She said: “They did have others too but I can't remember the names of them.”
