The Perfume Shop customers loving affordable scent that 'smells exactly like' Jo Malone product

Shoppers are loving a £19.99 scent which 'smells exactly like' a popular high-end product.

It's The Perfume Shop's Lime and Basil Eau de Parfum, which comes in a 100ml bottle, and is said to smell like the famous Jo Malone London Lime Basil and Mandarin Cologne, Daily Record report.

The designer version is priced at £110 for 100ml.

Given the budget version's name, you may think it gives notes of just two of the three ingredients of the famous Jo Malone scent. However, it boasts the same combination of zesty lime, peppery basil and sweet mandarin, Daily Record report.

The budget version's description reads: "The powerful lime fruit as its heart cuts through the sweet orange and green herbal accords, giving you an addictive all-day-every-day perfume you won’t want to live without."

You can even get the bottle engraved. The Perfume Shop customers can include a small message on the 100ml bottle for just £6.99 extra, taking the total to £26.98.

A buyer said: "Just like Jo Malone but a fraction of the cost."

A second added: "Smells exactly like Jo Malone! Lasts a long time and great value."
