Although, some Facebook users were less convinced by the product.
One user wrote: "I tried it. It does smell like it but the scent only lasted 10-15 mins and was gone. Husband came in from work about 20mins after me spraying it and he couldn't smell it."
In August last year, a savvy shopper compiled a list of fragrances from Poundland that are dupes of our favourite perfumes.
She revealed that the Galaxy perfume is a knock off of Alien by Mugler which goes elsewhere for £59.99.
Lady Glamour is the dupe to Good Girl by Caroline Herrara which is being sold for £99 at The Perfume Shope, Amour Eternal is a dupe of Dior's J'Dore which is £58.08 at Sephora.
Illusion mimics Phantom by Paco Rabanne, Empire is a replica of Sauvage by Dior, and His Honour is almost indistinguishable from Armani Code - to name a few of the hardest-hitting dupes.

While Red Petals, a dupe of Giorgio Armani's Si Passione, was described as: “There’s definitely a smell of red roses with a strong vanilla background that is similar to the ‘Si’ range."
All in all though, Noemie concluded: “You get what you pay for, some are good for the price and some are longer-lasting than others."
