Melon01 Nice fragrance for everyday wear Everyday perfume smells ok. Good size for weekend trip or a few days It’s important to remember that fragrance smells differently on everyone so what may smell like a great dupe to some may not to others. Even with only the minutest of spritzes, the scent was unmistakably a deep, heady floral. This one was warm, sensual and comforting, the kind that makes you feel as if you're wandering down a cobbled European street in lamplight with jasmine blooming somewhere. cross14 Midnight Blossom EDT I'm sorry I don't have a sense of smell so have to rely on my Husbands opinion Artemis27 My new favourite. I usually but Florentyna, and have done for many years, but this is my new favourite M & S perfume. Love it.

Perfume is very subjective, so we approached this testing process with an open mind. As well as being sure to try perfumes from multiple fragrance families and with differing notes, we looked at a few key things to determine whether each M&S perfume is worth purchasing. These included:

Lancôme La Vie Est Belle dupe: Pink Pepper

Whether you're after something fruity or musky, the affordable M&S fragrance collection is certainly worth knowing about. HeliJ Sweet and sultry Sweet ,sultry scent ...lovely but not for me although I did wear it at my daughters wedding as the sample fitted nicely in my purse lhali good price scent lovely scent - bought to replace the Florentyna night bloom at a bargain price GrSue Dreadful nothing like the original one Dreadful it’s absolutely nothing like the one M&S first sold

LEC72 Warm Neroli Eau de Toilette Lovely perfume, soft and floral and long wearing and not overpowering. Will definitely be buying another bottle. You can also get a gift set or discovery set containing minisof lots of different ones, which is a great way to try a few at the same time. This is the M&S perfume that we were most surprised by. Promising a tropical, salty, and coconutty scent, we were ready for another beachy perfume to fall in love with. However, that was not what we got. On the first spritz and after it dried down, this perfume smelt distinctively light and fruity to us. And we're not the only ones - one customer said "In truth I detest coconut, however, this has a light citrus smell," which was a very happy accident for them. There are some discontinued M&S perfumes which were dupes of designer fragrances but appear not to be available any more either online or in-store. PolDav Lady Millions on a budget Smells lovely, no it doesn't last as long on the skin perhaps but it is an eau de toilette not parfum and for the price, I still think it's fabKR60 Lovely expensive smelling scent So pleased with this scent. It smells very similar to my favourite YSL but a fraction of the price. Great everyday scent, does need reapplying after a few hours. For example, if you love Le Labo’s Santal 33 but not the very high price tag, you can get an M&S dupe which smells just like it and is a much, much cheaper alternative. Under the Palm Trees is a part of M&S' Provenance range, a slightly more premium offering of scents containing sustainably sourced bio-alcohol.Housed in a bottle that looks like a miniature sculpture, it is clear that this perfume is a cut above the regular M&S perfumes. Elegant and sophisticated, it will sit proudly amongst your fragrance collection with no visual indication that it was a budget buy. It’s because Marks and Spencer make amazingly good copies of designer scents that also happen to be really good value.

If Chanel No. 5 is your signature scent but you’re looking for an affordable dupe then M&S also have you covered. Lancôme's La Vie Est Belle is a newb compared to Chanel No.5, having been released in 2012. However, it's a best-selling perfume nonetheless, with celebrity fans including Camilla Cabello and Lupita Nyong'o. 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.

YSL Black Opium dupe: Midnight Blossom

Scoutie Gorgeous, reasonably priced for 100ml Another beautiful fragrance from M&S. Great for myself and for gifts . Recipients love them . I spray scarves and coats hanging in wardrobes so when I open door all smell fresh retired60 Midnight blossom This was a free sample. I did like the smell and my granddaughter liked it as well

You never know, your favorite perfume might appear in future if it isn’t in the dupes list already.If the huge profits the fragrance industry makes from the sale of their perfumes and aftershaves bothers you too then you’ll love these Marks & Spencer perfume dupes. All this meant little as I sniffed it for the first time at the Selfridges perfume counter. Clean, soapy and definitely not stereotypically feminine all sprang to mind; bold and fresh, but also kind of like you've just washing the dishes with Fairy. Marks and Spencer's alleged "dupe" for Chanel No.5 (Velvet Rose) doesn't quite hit the nail on the head but the vibes are definitely similar (Image: MyLondon) Tarzen Mens aroma How delicate the scent is, my previous one was a little bit stronger but this one beats it.
