Just when we think we've found all the best perfume dupes that rival designer favourites at M&S, Zara and Next, Avon enters the chat. Long associated with nostalgic beauty hauls and catalogue drops at your grandma's house, Avon is having a glow-up - and it’s rooted firmly in fragrance.
Perfume dupes have undoubtedly taken over the beauty sphere in the last few years, and the stats back it up: 50% of fragrance buyers are now reaching for affordable alternatives over their spendy signature scents, showing that the appetite for dupes is real. So, of course, Avon’s decided to get involved - and they’ve done it properly. In collaboration with perfume experts who have worked with the likes of Carolina Herrera and Dolce & Gabbana, Avon’s new trio of perfumes could easily pass for high-end spritzes - minus the triple-digit price tag.
The line-up consists of three luxurious scents: Peppery Peaches, Choco Tuberose, and Bamboozie Cocktail are all uniquely different but equally rich in different notes, depending on your mood. Peppery Peaches balances juicy fruit with a spicy kick, Choco Tuberose pairs creamy florals with gourmand depth, while Bamboozie Cocktail is a sparkling, playful mix of citrus and woods.
The takeaway? Well-crafted dupes can be almost as good as your designer favourites - shop the collection before it sells out.
