Boots has cut the price of the Marc Jacobs Daisy Wild Eau So Intense Women's Eau de Parfum 50ml to £54.60, down from £91, as part of its spritz of the week promotion. The 40% discount saves shoppers £36.40 on the typical Boots retail price.
Scent notes and bottle design
Part of the Daisy fragrance family, Daisy Wild blends fruity and floral notes with a warmer, woody base. The fragrance opens with banana blossom, followed by jasmine extract, with amber and sandalwood in the mix.
Marc Jacobs describes the scent as inspired by adventure and wanderlust, capturing the essence of the outdoors. The bottle features pale green glass topped with the brand's daisy-shaped cap, decorated with colourful flowers.
Shopper feedback
One buyer said: "Nice strong perfume. Long lasting scent. Always complimented when wearing this." Another commented: "This perfume is so light and has a fresh flowery fragrance. It is ideal for wearing daytime or evening. All my friends have remarked on how lovely this perfume is and how fresh and light it is. I love it."
A second customer added: "This is my new favourite. Marc Jacobs daisy line had always been my favourite and only one out of the whole line has not been a scent for me. It lasts all day and the bottle is beautiful! It's effective but light so as not to be too much. It's a little on the pricey side but I don't mind paying for quality over quantity."
Not all reviews were glowing, with one shopper saying: "It's not as good as the original daisy wild in my opinion and it smells like a perfume I would imagine for more mature people whereas I'm 20." Another reviewer, however, wrote: "Lovely fragrance, I prefer it to the original Daisy Wild. Banana flower is stronger on first spray and then dries down to a lovely jasmine, the notes really do go well together. I could smell it all day on myself and I only ever use 3 or 4 sprays. Bottle is gorgeous too!"
Alternative banana-scented options
For fans of banana scents, the Juliette Has a Gun Banana Rush Eau de Parfum is available at Cult Beauty for £100 for 50ml, blending banana, maple syrup, coconut and frangipani. At Space NK, the Kayali Maui in a Bottle Sweet Banana costs £80 for 50ml and opens with banana and pear, developing into jasmine, rum and sandalwood.
