One Jo Malone fan has been so impressed by the £3 buy that they are urging people to “get down to Morrisons”
Bargain shoppers with a nose for luxury are flocking to Morrisons as word spreads of an affordable reed diffuser that’s being compared to the much-pricier Jo Malone versions. On social media, the supermarket’s latest addition to its homeware range is causing quite a stir because of its similarity to the deluxe brand, which can set you back double or even triple figures.
TikTok user Libbie May Fitzpatrick shared her excitement in a recent video, showcasing the find – a Georges Rech Pomegranate Grenade Diffuser – snagged from Morrisons’ clearance section for just £3. “If you love Jo Malone Pomegranate, you need to get down to Morrisons,” she urged her viewers.
“This massive diffuser is only £3, and it smells absolutely amazing.” She reinforced her discovery by adding in the caption: “OMG SMELLS AMAZING.”
While the high-end Georges Rech brand is known for fashion and beauty products, ranging from clothing to perfumes, savvy customers can now invite a touch of opulence into their homes for mere pennies on the pound with this 180ml pomegranate scented diffuser. At first glance, its sophisticated packaging could lead one to mistake it for the Jo Malone counterpart.
But the scent also stacks up, according to Libbie, paralleling to the well-loved Pomegranate Noir Cologne, reports Bristol Live. Jo Malone’s signature scent is available as a 165ml diffuser retailing at £74, but now you have a thrifty alternative.
In comparison to the £3 Georges Rech diffuser, which is available in a larger 180ml bottle and comes with several reeds, customers could save a whopping £71. Jo Malone’s £74 diffuser is touted to last for approximately 3-4 months, suggesting that the £3 version could potentially last just as long, if not longer.
Morrisons isn’t the only retailer offering budget-friendly alternatives to Jo Malone products. Lidl also sells bathroom essentials for just £1.99 each, boasting scents reminiscent of the iconic brand.
As part of its Deluxe beauty brand, Lidl is offering Wood Sage and Sea Salt scented hand washes and lotions for just under £2 each. On Jo Malone’s official website, its Wood Sage and Sea Salt version is on sale for £58 if you buy the biggest bottle.
