B&M shoppers are going wild over a £4 dupe of an iconic designer fragrance, but for £93 less.
The discounter is selling a bargain version of Paco Rabanne’s Olympea, and fans say it smells “exactly the same”.
B&M’s Oriana scent costs just £3.99 for 100ml, while Olympea can cost as much as a whopping £97 for just 80ml.
Savvy shoppers shared the fragrance to the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook group.
They wrote: “If you like Paco Rabanne Olympea and don’t wanna pay £50/£60, found this dupe in B&M for £3.99!!!
“No word of a lie, smells exactly the same – probably won’t last as long but still a bargain!”
The bargain hunter shared a photo of the perfume dupe, sporting very similar packaging as the designer scent.
The post was met with dozens of comments from fellow shoppers itching to get their hands of the fragrance.
One wrote: “I got one smells exactly like Olympea, my new favourite.”
Another said: “My favourite!!”
A third tagged her pal and commented: “You can get my perfume cheaper than what I paid!”
A bottle of Olympea can cost from £56 for 50ml up to £97 for 80ml at The Perfume Shop.
It means that those looking for a cheaper alternative, this dupe costing just £4 is a huge saving.
Of course, keep in mind that the scents may not last as long or aren’t as strong, so bear this in mind before you opt for a dupe.
Shoppers can find B&M’s perfume in store only, as it’s not available online.
To find your nearest store head over to the B&M website.
Each store will have its own stock of the scents and these kinds of items tend to sell-out pretty quickly.
It’s always worth phoning ahead to your local store to check how many they have available.
It’s always worth having a sniff first to make sure you like the smell before purchasing.
As always, make sure to have a shop around before you commit to a purchase to make sure you’re always getting the best deal.
We had a look and couldn’t find any so-called dupes of this scent that rivalled B&M’s price.
If Olympea isn’t your scent of choice, there’s several other dupes for other big name brands from other retailers.
Aldi is selling its own version of a popular Jo Malone scent – but for £111 less.
Its Hotel Collection No39 Poppy and Barley perfume costs just £6.99 for 100ml.
Fragrance fans “love” this Poundland perfume which is one of the many designer dupes the discount store has on its shelves.
Savvy shoppers have noticed that Black Dusk perfume, which retails at just £2 for 100ml, is a dupe for YSL’s Black Opium, which retails at around £90 for a 90ml size, depending on where you shop.
Discount retailer Home Bargains have also been delighting customers with a dupe that they have on offer that is £68 cheaper than the real thing.
Superdrug shoppers also spotted an “amazing” perfume dupe for just £8.50 compared to £110 for the designer version.
Meanwhile, B&M shoppers are rushing to buy bargain garden furniture scanning at tills for just £40.
