If you’re heading to Marks and Spencer's, you’re going to want to keep an eye out for these ‘identical’ dupes from as little as £3 of a designer scent that could save you a whopping £150. Shoppers are rushing to stores to grab the products that come as both a perfume and fabric detergent.

M&S have recently launched their biggest ever homecare range, however, their laundry liquid and conditioner has this woman raving.

Laura Capon, a freelance beauty editor, has shared with her 66k followers, that the M&S Sandalwood and Bergamot laundry liquid smells like Le Labo’s Bergamote 22, which also has similar woody-inspired notes and costs £157 for a 100ml bottle from John Lewis.

The description of the product from the M&S website reads: “Our plant based fabric conditioner is made with indulgent essential oils and our sandalwood and rose scent, with easy-iron technology, that softens clothes and reduces static cling.”

In her viral video captioned: “My perfume? Oh, it’s my fabric conditioner”, Laura also reviews the Sandalwood and Rose Fabric Conditioner, which could be compared to Le Labo Rose 31 which has notes of warm and spicy cedar.

“I don't normally like rose but oh my God, I actually prefer this one. Honestly, this could be Le Labo perfume. I feel like we all just need to get to M&S immediately to get our hands on this,” she urged her viewers.

The laundry liquid cost £5.50 and the fabric conditioner cost £3.50

"These laundry liquids and fabric conditioners are chef's kiss. You'll just smell rich. You and your clothes will smell warm and rich,” she added.

Another woman took to TikTok to share “the dupe of all dupes” as she compares this £9.50 perfume to Le Labo Santal 33.

Chloe said she was pleasantly surprised after discovering M&S' Apothecary range.

In the viral video captioned: “THE dupe of all dupes. Save your £ and get to M&S. @marksandspenceruk #perfume #lelabo #lelabosantal33”, Chloe said she did not want to “gatekeep” the product and urged shoppers to buy it.

"We're in a cost of living crisis and I'm not going to gatekeep this.

"I just went to M&S in Manchester for a bra fitting and the beauty counter is right by where the lingerie section is.

"I was having a little potter about and I was looking at their own brand they have called Apothecary.

"I picked up this perfume randomly and I thought, 'Oh, I'll give it a little sniff'.”

To Chloe’s delight she discovered the scent ‘Warmth’ from the M&S apothecary range was “not even slightly different” to the Le Labo Santal 33.

One viewer commented: “I have been saying this since I found it in September!! IT’S IDENTICAL!” Another said: "M&S beauty is criminally underrated."
