Boots is offering shoppers a half-price saving on a designer aftershave, just in time for Father's Day on June 21. The Gucci Guilty For Him Eau de Toilette 50ml usually retails for £72 but is now available for £36.
The fresh Italian fragrance had previously sold out on the Boots website, but is now back in stock and flying off the virtual shelves. As an Eau de Toilette, it is ideal for summer holidays, daytime wear, or spritzing before the gym.
Gucci Guilty For Him opens with notes of lavender and Italian lemon, developing into an orange blossom heart, with base notes of cedarwood and patchouli. One fan of the scent said: "It's a total crowd-pleaser that strikes a perfect balance between fresh and casual."
"It kicks off with a bright, clean burst of lemon and lavender, which gives it that classic, straight-out-of-the-shower vibe without feeling old-fashioned. As it settles, a smooth blend of orange flower and cedarwood sneaks in, adding a warm, slightly woody depth that keeps it interesting."
"It is incredibly versatile, making it an easy grab for everyday wear, casual hangouts, or a day at the office." However, they added: "The only real downside is that the longevity is just average, so you might need to reapply it if you want it to last through a long night out. Overall, it is a safe, super-reliable fragrance that smells modern, clean, and effortlessly cool."
Another pleased buyer said: "The best date fragrance period. Everything from the bottle's sleek metallic design with the iconic symbol, to the addictive lavender and citrus scent is just immaculate."
"Blended into a not too soft and not too hard scent, it's a clean and sweet cologne that got me into being addicted to fragrances. Modestly priced at 50-60 in most discounters make this a great deal!"
Superdrug is another great place to find discounted fragrances. Right now, the Calvin Klein Man Eau de Toilette 100ml is available for £28 instead of £70, while the Issey Miyake L'Eau D'Issey Intense for Him 125ml is down to £30.40 instead of £76.
Alternatively, online beauty giant LookFantastic has released The Grooming Edit just in time for June 21, containing a mix of aftershave, moisturiser, body wash, and more. Priced at £45, the gift set is worth over £145, allowing you to save over £100 on top brands including Clinique, Jo Malone, Rituals, Aveda, and Aveeno. There are seven items in total, with three full sizes and four deluxe sizes, along with a reusable cosmetics bag.
