Boots has slashed the price of a popular designer perfume by 50% this week, offering the Marc Jacobs Daisy Ever So Fresh Eau de Parfum 75ml for half its usual price. The fragrance, described as "fresh and summery," is featured as the retailer's 'spritz of the week,' allowing shoppers to save £47.50.
Fragrance Notes and Appeal
Marc Jacobs Daisy Ever So Fresh opens with top notes of mandarin essence, mango, and pineapple, before developing into a heart of rosewater and orange blossom essence. The base note is cashmere woods, which provides a warm and long-lasting finish. One shopper praised it as "to die for," adding: "Bright, playful and effortlessly feminine. It feels light, clean and perfect for every day wear. This perfume is a fresh, vibrant scent that instantly lifts your mood."
Another five-star review echoed the sentiment: "I like this perfume because it smells fresh, fruity, and uplifting without being too strong. It instantly puts me in a good mood and feels easy and comfortable to wear every day. It just feels like a happy and confident scent that really fits me."
Mixed Reviews and Alternatives
However, not all shoppers were convinced. One three-star reviewer noted: "It was ok, I found that it smelled like a lot of other perfumes out right now and that don't suit me. It did stay on for a while, that's why I gave three stars."
For those seeking alternatives, the Bellavita Luxury Honey Oud Eau de Parfum 100ml, priced at £19.99 on Amazon, has garnered over 15,200 reviews. With notes of sweet honey, bergamot, oud, and amber, it is described as "addictive" and long-lasting. One shopper rated it five stars, saying: "Excellent. Beautiful fragrance and lasts all day. Proper holiday vibes. Well worth the price."
Additionally, Marks & Spencer offers Monotheme perfumes for £20 per 100ml bottle, made in Italy and comparable to expensive alternatives. The Vetiver Eau De Toilette 100ml has been likened to Creed's Original Vetiver by wearers.
