The ‘bargain’ superstore is often a top choice for people across the country on a budget
Home Bargains is once again living up to its reputation by offering a premium perfume at a massively reduced price. The budget-friendly retailer remains a favourite destination for shoppers nationwide, providing virtually everything you could want under one roof at wallet-friendly prices.
The store has also built a reputation for stocking cut-price alternatives to luxury items, including cosmetics, skincare, hair care products, and fragrances. It even boasts its own range of own-brand perfumes that some customers insist smell ‘identical’ to designer scents like Thierry Mugler’s Alien and Marc Jacobs’ Daisy.
Belfast Live reports that one standout fragrance in its current ‘SpecialBuy’ selection is a scent from a famous celebrity. The gift set Home Bargains typically retails for approximately £50, but the retailer has dramatically cut the price and is offering a whopping 68% reduction.
This price slash means shoppers can now snap it up for just £15.99 – with some claiming it evokes memories of a sought-after designer Prada fragrance. The amber and vanilla-infused perfume arrives in a 75ml bottle alongside an 8ml rollerball.
The product description reads: “Unwrap the magic with the Kylie Minogue Darling EDP Gift Set. This sweet combo features a 75ml eau de parfum and a handy 8ml rollerball, blending luscious amber and vanilla notes for a delightful fragrance experience.”
Opening notes include freesia, litchi and passionfruit. Middle notes feature boronia and lily, whilst the foundation notes showcase amberwood, sandalwood and vanilla.
Apart from Home Bargains, there are other shops stocking the celebrity fragrance, including Amazon and Superdrug. For potential customers eager to discover what other buyers have made of the perfume, there are countless reviews available online.
For example, on Amazon, the identical fragrance boasts a customer rating of 4.5 out of five. Generally customers find the perfume’s aroma ‘gorgeous’, with one noting it’s ‘perfect for daily use’.
Others value its staying power, with one commenting it endures all day. In the reviews, one buyer remarked: “This smells divine and is long lasting, love it!” A second commented: “Lovely for everyday wear.” But a third noted: “Almost too sweet smelling… Candyfloss vibes indeed.”
Someone else said: “Quit long lasting perfume for the price, I absolutely love this sweet smell, bottle is very cute and it makes a great addition to my vanity table.” Another said: “This perfume lasts all day.”
One more commented: “Best perfume I’ve ever had. I found that this is an alternative for Prada paradox. I recently splurged on the real version about a month ago. I can say I love the Prada paradox but I was thinking maybe I should get a alternative because it’s very expensive, so I can wear the real one on special occasions and still smell like Prada paradox so I decided to buy this one and I can now officially say smells identical.”
