Home Bargains selling ‘divine’ £50 ‘Prada’ perfume that ‘lasts all day’ for £16

People who have already used the perfume say it smells similar to Prada’s Paradox

Home Bargains is living up to its name once more by selling a high-end perfume at a heavily discounted price. The budget-friendly superstore is often a top choice for people across the country because it offers almost anything you could need under one roof at affordable prices.

It is also well-known for selling cheaper versions of luxury items, including makeup, skincare and hair products, and perfumes. It even has its own line of store-brand perfumes that some shoppers would argue smell ‘identical’ to designer fragrances like Thierry Mugler’s Alien and Marc Jacobs’ Daisy.

One particular perfume in its latest ‘SpecialBuy’ section is a fragrance by a well-known celebrity. The set Home Bargains is usually selling for around £50, but the store has slashed the price tag and offered a 68% discount on it.

The price drop means customers can now buy it for £15.99 – and some say it reminds them of a popular designer Prada perfume. The amber and vanilla-scented perfume comes in a 75ml bottle and an 8ml rollerball.

“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.”

Top notes include freesia, litchi and passionfruit. Heart notes are boronia and lily, while base notes feature amberwood, sandalwood and vanilla.

Besides Home Bargains, there are other retailers selling the celebrity perfume, including Amazon and Superdrug. For potentially shoppers keen to see what other buyers have thought of the perfume, there are numerous reviews available online.

For instance, on Amazon, the same perfume has a customer rating of 4.5 out of five. Overall customers find the perfume’s scent ‘beautiful’, with one mentioning it’s ‘lovely for everyday wear’. Others appreciate its longevity, with one mentioning it lasts all day.

In the reviews, one shopper said: “This smells divine and is long lasting, love it!” A second said: “Lovely for everyday wear.” But a third said: “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 put: “This perfume lasts all day.”

One more said: “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.”
