Budget perfume recommendations up to £35

16 replies

Gettingthereslowly2020 · 26/12/2021 18:32

Hello, please can I have some recommendations for a budget friendly perfume? Preferably one I can buy from Boots with my £35 of advantage card points.

I love Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 but that is massively out of my price range right now. I did try AllSaints Sunset Riot as a bit of a dupe but I wasn't too keen on it.

I'm looking for a fresher fragrance.

I really like Burberry Blossom Her and also the plain Burberry Her. Another one that I like is Hugo Boss Scent. I'm looking for something similar to those ones.

Ariana Grande Cloud is similar to BR - you can probably pick it up for £25-30 in Boots!

The Zara red temptation perfume is also a dupe for the maison one x

Thank you, I'll have a look at both of those tomorrow

Try essence vault for dupes I’ve been really impressed

I know you have said you want to spend Boots points, but honestly, get yourself onto Perfume Parlour - it's a game changer!

Zara Vibrant Cities collection are £15 and amazing. The Venice perfume is citrusy and lovely.

Keep an eye out for Abaco 'Baca', which has been on sale in TK Maxx off and on recently. It's the best 'Baccarat' dupe I've come across.

Another vote for Ariana Grande cloud - I have both and it's very very similar, I probably won't bother replacing the MFK.

Match perfumes do a good copy of Baccarat Rouge

I got a lovely Ellie Saab perfume on offer in boots for £35 just before Xmas

Zara apple blossom is fresh and lovely for only £12 for a big bottle.

100 percent Emporiam Armani (in the tin)
It's always on offer

I also shop at Perfume Parlour after discovering them on mumsnet. Gorgeous perfumes and very long lasting!

Fantasy by Britney. Hate admitting I still wear a Britney purfume in my 30s but it's just the best

I fought through the crowds and only just managed to get a Christmas cracker thing with mini Ariana Grande perfumes in from Superdrug. One of them is Cloud. Smells lovely.

I wanted to check out the Zara fragrances but it was too packed so I didn't bother. I'll have a look next time when it's quieter. Same for TK Maxx.

I'll hopefully have a spray of the other recommendations too.

Thanks everyone

They have an amazing Baccarat Rouge copy!!!

My DD has Ariana Cloud which I use occasionally because it smells so good. My signature perfume is Chanel No 5 so it's nice to have a change now and again
