I tried Aldi's £6 dupe of the £117 Miss Dior perfume and couldn't tell the difference

Aldi is known for its impressive array of dupes, and I can't believe how the store manages to get it spot on every single time.

I'm a huge fan of its Jo Malone dupes that smell virtually identical to the original. After hearing a lot of hype surrounding its other designer perfume dupes such as Tom Ford and Aventus Creed, I knew I had to dig deeper.

This summer on Thursday June 22, the popular retailer will be launching a whole host of impressive designer dupes including a Dior lip oil dupe and a Charlotte Tilbury eyeshadow dupe.

I'm a huge lover of perfume, and practically drown myself in the stuff whenever I leave the house. However, I'm also fully aware of how ridiculously expensive it can be, so I often begrudge forking out hundreds of pounds on a bottle of perfume.

That's why recently, I've been trying the Aldi perfumes, and so far I'm super impressed. I've tried out its Hotel Collection Jo Malone dupes and I absolutely love them, but what about Dior?

I recently got to try out the Aldi £6 dupe of the iconic £117 Miss Dior perfume that I actually used to own when I was younger. This particular dupe will be out alongside the other dupes on June 22 - here's what I thought.

The perfume

Aldi's dupes are often known for their subtle visual similarities to the original, and this perfume most certainly looked like the Miss Dior perfume. It had that pale pink colour, but it was missing the bow on top of the lid.

Instead, the lid of the Aldi product was circular, and the font and label of the perfume were slightly similar to the £117 version. But let's be honest, it's all about the scent - which I can confirm is incredible.

The original Miss Dior is described as having 'fresh and foral notes' composed like a bouquet of flowers, and this Aldi perfume smells pretty much exactly the same. I'll never forget the Miss Dior scent, because it was actually one of my first proper perfumes that I got as a Christmas present, and it's stuck with me ever since.

I was shocked at how similar the Aldi perfume was, as it had that bright and refreshing scent that I used to love. The Aldi dupe is perhaps not as strong as the Dior original, but that's totally understandable because of the difference in price.

I've worn the perfume daily since getting it and I can confirm it lasts for at least three to four hours on the skin before you need another spritz. However, that could just be because I like my perfume to smell strong, so it's really all down to personal preference.

The verdict

Aldi, you've done it again! I have no idea how Aldi keeps getting these dupes spot on, but I'm so here for it. If you want to smell like luxury Dior perfume without the pricetag, you better prepare yourself for June 22.

I think this perfume, along with all the other dupes are going to sell quickly. I for one will be venturing into Aldi to see if I can snap up some more dupes in the meantime.
