Keeping on top of a perfume collection can often be costly - even more so if you're partial to designer brands. However, switching to budget alternatives that smell similar but only cost a few pounds can be a lot kinder to your bank balance. Aldi has shoppers sorted with the return of its in-store beauty and health event, which kicked off on September 15 and wraps up on September 19 - so shoppers will need to act quickly.

Customers who have made their way to Aldi's SpecialBuy aisle this week have discovered three perfumes priced at £5.99 each. The perfumes are part of Aldi's Lacura Ladies' Eau de Parfum collection and come in 100ml bottles.



Shoppers might even recognise some of them as they've been on sale before from previous events. The three perfumes have been likened to luxury labels, such as Dior and Paco Rabanne. However, by choosing Aldi's alternatives, you could fool most people and, even better, not leave a massive dent in your bank balance.

Aldi's Devotion bears a striking resemblance to Dior's J'Adore Eau de Parfum , shoppers claim, without the hefty price tag of £145. Perfect Pink also has shoppers drawing comparisons to Dior's Miss Dior that retails for £135, reports the Mirror . Empress has been compared to the popular Olympea Eau de Parfum by Paco Rabanne, which typically costs over £90 for a similar sized bottle.

The Aldi fragrance shares similar notes of water jasmine, green mandarin, and ginger flower, coupled with vanilla and sandalwood. Aldi shoppers are well aware that a bare middle aisle means the stock has been so popular it's gone, meaning you'll need to act fast if you want to grab a bottle before the specials swap out for another event. Satisfied customers have taken to social media to endorse the sprays, with numerous TikTok users posting their hauls before the items disappeared.

One commented: "I got the Empress one today and OMG it smells exactly the same as Olympia. If you haven't got already then get!" Another said: "Devoted to Devotion! Love it so much! I buy a couple bottles every time they get it in!" A third shared: "Perfect Pink is so good. Really fresh and lasts all day!"
