Members of a bargain-hunting Facebook group have found an affordable £3 body spray that they say is the perfect alternative to Lancôme‘s £93 La Vie Est Belle perfume
There’s nothing better than finding a perfume that instantly becomes your favourite go-to scent, but often their higher price tags mean we’re reluctant to use them every day, settling for something that we don’t love quite as much but is more affordable to wear daily and saving our favourite for special occasions instead.
We’re not alone in the dilemma, though, and members of the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook group have found the perfect solution in the form of affordable body sprays that supposedly smell exactly like luxury perfumes. Posting in the group, the member wrote: “Lancome La vie Est Belle is my favourite perfume and I've just picked this up for £2.99 from Home Bargains and it smells exactly the same! Will be using this for work instead of my perfume now! Bargain!”
La Vie Est Belle is one of Lancôme’s best-loved fragrances, with notes of blackberry, pallida iris concrete, orange blossom, jasmine and patchouli, and the bargain body spray has similar notes of iris, jasmine and patchouli.
