Marks and Spencer's £10 perfume 'smells like' £157 Le Labo fragrance

A £10 perfume from Marks and Spencer is being compared to a £157 fragrance from John Lewis.

The retailer's Apothecary Warmth Eau De Parfum has been likened to Le Labo Santal 33 Eau de Parfum. According to Marks and Spencer, the perfume has notes of cardamom, cinnamon, cedarwood and sandalwood.

They said: "Bring a sense of well-being and comfort to your day with this Eau de parfum from Apothecary’s wellbeing fragrance collection."

Warmth Eau De Parfum has received a rating of four out of five stars on Marks and Spencer's website. One reviewer, NessaMilly said: "Lovely fragrance, very similar to Santal 33 by Le Labo, at a fraction of the price."

A second, Carrieb5 said: "I'm lucky enough to have had Santal 33 from Le Labo and this is a fantastic dupe. It’s much lighter and yes you might need to spray a little bit more often but for the price, it’s a winner.

"Even when I can’t smell this I’ve been complimented, just brilliant."

It's worth keeping this perfume in your bag for top-ups throughout the day, as some reviewers commented on the longevity of the scent.

Nawny said: "Great dupe, and very similar to the iconic fragrance saving hundreds of pounds - what's not to love? Not long-lasting, but at the price it is, it's not a problem."

A second said: "Lovely warm spicy scent but needs 'topping up' at least twice a day." And Dorsetdarling said: "I LOVE this scent. I am not sure that it is actually an Eau de parfum, as unfortunately, the scent does not last for very long.

"However it is reasonably priced so that is OK."
