When it comes to shopping for perfume there's a lot to think about. Fruity or floral? Musky or oriental? Fresh or warm? Not to mention that when you finally decide what to shop for, the price tag isn't always too friendly. That's where the Marks & Spencer perfume collection is particularly handy.
As seen on TikTok (obviously), fans of major brands like Chanel and Jo Malone have become slightly fond of the M&S range, which smells like the popular fave perfumes we all know. From La Vie Est Belle to Chanel No. 5, you can get your hands on a similar choice for as low as £5. No joke.
And, of course. We all know the iconic Black Opium by Yves Saint Laurent (coming in at an eye-watering £80 for 50ml) and yep, M&S even has a perfume dupe for that.
Hurrah, our bank accounts are saved.
As all huge trends go, the hack was picked up by TikTokers who noticed the affordability of the perfumes that smelled suspiciously similar. Now, with the beans spilt, we all know where to get the iconic (and far cheaper) choices.
So whether you're a fruity perfume lover or like to keep it deep and musky, our favourite perfumes are now a fraction of the price thanks to M&S' cheeky fragrance collection. Wondering where you can get your hands on it? We've found all the perfume dupes below.
