'I'm a beauty writer and these are my top 11 Amazon Prime Day perfume deals'
Now, as a beauty writer, the annual sale has provided me with an abundance of discounts across cosmetics, hair care and makeup goodies, from a range of high street and premium brands.
However, where I think the sale truly shines is with its perfume deals. I'm not the only one that would agree that buying a new bottle of scent can be quite pricey, which is why it's always handy to be on the lookout for deals.
Even outside of Prime Day, Amazon has become a go-to for its fragrance discounts, as it offers free next day delivery on many bottles for those who are signed up with a Prime membership, and with a 30-day free trial still on offer, it might be worth considering for some new shoppers.
As for me, since I have tried various different scents over the years from florals to spicy woods, I'd like to think that I have quite a good nose for finding some of the best perfume deals on offer at the moment.
From celebrity favourites, iconic brands, and little-known bottles, here are just a few perfumes I would personally bag in this year's Amazon Prime Day sale.
Rachel's top picks
Sarah Jessica Parker Lovely Eau de Parfum for Women, 200ml - was £95.62, now £20.50 (79% off)
Massive 79 per cent saving aside, the Sex and the City star's bestselling perfume remains a firm favourite with a 4.6 rating from perfume buffs who say it "lasts all day" and gets "many compliments" when worn.
Blending notes of citrus, rosewood, lavender, apple martini and musks, it is said to be "effortlessly elegant", with the bottle design itself said to represent the delicate nature of the perfume inside.
Currently a popular celebrity perfume among many shoppers, Lovely averages over 2,000 reviews from fans who love its "refreshing" scent. One such review read: "Amazing fragrance! It lasts a good number of hours and doesn't wear off quickly. If you love a good floral scent, this is for you!"
It's worth noting that some shoppers find they have to reapply the scent during the day, as one wrote: "Love this perfume. Wish it lasted on me. Need to constantly refresh."

It's the "iconic fragrance for modern times" that has become a staple for perfume fanatics of all genders. As the first scent to be marketed as unisex, it's reputation is one that has stood the test of time.
Offering a citrus-y scent, it's been hailed in reviews as "timeless, fresh and versatile". Another reason I love this deal is the fact that it offers a massive 200ml bottle, allowing shoppers to get more value for their money, as it will last a long time.
Offering a massive 4.7 rating based on over 40,000 reviews, there's a reason it's a fan-favourite, as one read: "Calvin Klein One Eau De Toilette deserves a glowing 5-star rating from me.
"The scent is incredibly fresh and invigorating, making it a joy to wear. Every spritz takes me back to the nostalgic vibes of the 90's, reminiscent of carefree days and youthful energy. The fragrance manages to strike a perfect balance between being modern and timeless."
The casual scent was a drawback for one shopper who wrote: "Really cool fragrance and lasts long. Can also be used as aftershave. The only drawback is that it's a common fragrance type which means you wouldn't feel too 'premium' with this."

This is one for my fellow millennials, because does any brand represent the early '00s as much as Juicy Couture?
For those who are looking for a "fun" scent, then Viva La Juicy offers vibrant notes of wild berries, mandarin, honeysuckle, gardenia, jasmine, amber and caramel. Not to mention that the decorative pink bow and gold charm detail makes it a bit of a keepsake.
It should come as no surprise that the perfume has earned a 4.7 rating based on over 8,000 reviews for its "flirty" and "totally addictive" scent.
One shopper praised: "Viva La Juicy has been one of my go-to fragrances for years - fresh, flirty, and totally addictive. Every time I wear it, I get compliments left and right! It's the kind of scent that turns heads without trying too hard - effortlessly chic."
The sweeter scent has led some shoppers to think it is more suited to a younger audience, as one review read: "I think this fragrance would appeal to the very young, it is way too fruity and flowery for me."

Ghost Deep Night Eau de Toilette, 75ml - was £55, now £22 (60% off)
If there's one perfume brand that I, alongside so many others, tend to return to, then it is Ghost. While I am an avid user of the Orb of Night, I have always wanted to purchase this midnight-inspired fragrance - and with a 60 per cent discount I just might.
Not only is the black crescent-moon shaped bottle iconic, but the "enchanting" scent is one that can be worn by anyone. Offering notes of Indian rose, belle de nuit, peach, moon flower and vanilla orchid, there's a reason it has been hailed as "mysterious" and "sultry".
Owing to its reputation, Deep Night averages a rather stellar 4.8 rating based on 6,345 reviews, as one read: "Purchased for my mother and she loves it. It's an addictive scent and it lasts for hours. It's distinctive and typical of the Ghost brand. 5* Perfect, because you don't want to be having to reapply constantly."
But for those who prefer a stronger scent, this might not be the best perfume, as one three-star review read: "Delivery amazing, love this perfume but downside is that it isn't as strong as normal. Still love it."

Britney Spears Fantasy Eau de Parfum, 100ml - was £42, now £16
As a Britney Spears fan who grew up singing all her songs, I was a huge fan of her perfumes, particularly the first ever one - Curious. However, I have recently purchased a bottle of Fantasy and can confirm it is indeed worth the hype.
Often considered to be the princess of pop's most beloved scent, it's a "tantalizing" fragrance that is perfect for those who are looking for something a touch on the sweeter side. Described as "a magic love potion", it offers notes of red lychee, cupcake and creamy musk.
Right now, it averages an impressive 4.7 rating based on over 17,000 reviews from impressed beauty fans who have said that they are "still obsessed" with the Fantasy perfume that they have been wearing for "years."
One five-star review read: "I've been wearing this perfume for about 15 years. It lasts all day, and even when I shower but don't wash my hair I can still smell it in my hair from the previous day, so it lasts well. Always get compliments on it too."
However, the fruity scent hasn't been to everyone's preference, as one shopper said: "I am not keen on this reformulation. All I get is fruitiness with a sweet twist. The original fantasy was sweet, candy cupcake - gourmand. I can't get past the lychee fruity note which is overpowering."

Until recently, I was not aware that NIVEA, the brand I associate with skincare, offers a few fragrances - and this particular one is said to "smell like summer" and has over 8,000 reviews.
Now 35 per cent less, the Amazon Prime Deal offers the perfect chance to try it out and see if it's a worthy addition to the popular brand. Said to capture the scent of the firm's beloved summer sun, it's a "light and airy" fragrance that mixes citrus, florals and woods.
Ideal for those who want to evoke a sense of sunshine, its round, golden bottle is also quite a cute addition to any vanity table.
Averaging an impressive 4.2 rating, it has been praised in reviews as "uplifting" and "heavenly" by those who are looking to bag a fragrance for the summer season.
One review read: "Love love love this. Smells like holidays. Highly recommend. I don't find the scent fades. I could still smell it at the end of the day."
A few customers have advised that the lower price-tag reflects the quality of the longevity, as one three-star review read: "Wanted to try this for a long time but was disappointed with how long it lasted."

Other great deals worth checking out
While I think the above six are the top deals that I would personally take advantage of, mainly because I enjoy a mix of fragrances, that's not to say that's all there is.
As many beauty buffs will confirm, Amazon's Prime Day is a plethora of deals, with perfume being one category with an abundance of choice available, meaning there is something for every scent profile.
So, to make sure that everyone can find a bottle for them, I have provided below a list of alternatives that are also worth checking out while they are on offer.

Emmerdale fans slam 'unbelievable' surrogacy storyline
It comes as Charity's granddaughter, Sarah, was left devastated recently after undergoing an emergency hysterectomy during her cervical cancer surgery. Sarah was planning to undergo IVF to make her baby dreams come true prior to the surgery, but now, in a desperate bid to help their grandchild, Charity and Cain Dingle suggested she try a surrogate. After reaching a dead end with surrogacy agencies, viewers watched last night (July 14) as Charity took it upon herself to ask Sarah's aunty Victoria whether she would be a surrogate for her niece. Charity is out of options… and her last hope is Vic! 😢 #Emmerdale — Emmerdale (@emmerdale) July 14, 2025 Victoria's shock was evident, which led Charity to impulsively offer to carry the baby and be Sarah's surrogate. However, some viewers were less than impressed with the idea. Emmerdale viewers slam Sarah's surrogacy storyline Taking to Twitter, formerly X, one user said: "Not having it that Charity at 49-years-old will be having on get real." While another said, "Please no. Unbelievable." A third said, "Charity made it sound as simple as asking for a cup of sugar!!" While others looked at the storyline with slightly more depth, commenting: "Aside from other issues with the storyline, you'd think a general conversation first, at least about Sarah's struggles and seeking a surrogate, would have been a gentler lead in than just putting her right on the spot and asking her. Not exactly something to rush into #Emmerdale" Soaps That Have Won the Most Awards Another person remarked: "Please bring back the kind of amazing stories that made Emmerdale a great watch." While another said: "Anyone thinking of the child in this, who gets custody if Sarah goes before it's Jacob who has a career to map out. Maybe daft Charity raises a great grandchild too. Hideous storyline." Recommended reading: Who is Victoria to Sarah in Emmerdale? Sarah is the daughter of Andy Sugden and Debbie Dingle, both who have since left the village. Andy, being her father, means his siblings – Robert, Victoria, and the long-lost John – are her aunts and uncles. There links to the Dingles have been tricky over the years, fuelled by plenty of drama. Emmerdale is available to watch live and on demand via ITV and ITVX.

Jennifer Love Hewitt, 46, is still a Hollywood pinup in low-cut dress 28 years after I Know What You Did Last Summer
Jennifer Love Hewitt made a rare red carpet appearance on Monday evening at the I Know What You Did Last Summer movie premiere. Hewitt — who starred in the original 1997 slasher and reprises her role in the 2025 sequel — uncovered a new look at the Los Angeles event. The 46-year-old actress strayed from her signature brunette locks as she spiced things up with a fresh ginger hue. To complement the novel hair color, she stepped out in a cleavage-flashing, figure-hugging, 3-D beaded black dress from Rachel Gilbert. Rounding out the ensemble, Jennifer slipped her feet into a pair of pointy-toe black pumps with silver line detail. The BareNaked singer looked beautiful with an edgy smokey eye, mauve-toned blush, and coordinating matte lipstick. She accessorized with stacked rings and bracelets on one of her wrists. The mom-of-three, who is married to Brian Hallisay, wore her newly colored tresses in a center part and ironed straight. As she posed for photos along the step-and-repeat, she was joined by her castmates including Chase Sui Wonders, 29, with whom she shared a giddy exchange. Also at the star- studded gathering were longtime couple and former IKWYDL co-stars Sarah Michelle Gellar, 48, and Freddie Prinze Jr., 49. Gellar, whose character was killed off in the original movie, hit the premiere dressed in a strapless, blue, butterfly Oscar de la Renta mini dress. She picked up on the frock's subtle orange accents with matching accessories — a square-shaped clutch and pointy heels. Her signature blonde locks were arranged in a half-up, half-down style with tight, sultry waves throughout. For his part, Prinze Jr. was equally fashionable in a navy blue suit with a double-breasted jacket. He kept the look effortlessly cool and modern by layering a crew neck white shirt underneath his outer layer. And his suave co-ord was finished with a pair of sleek, dark, leather loafers. Sarah and Freddie met on the set of 1999's I Know What You Did Last Summer and became Hollywood's 'it' couple shortly after. The longtime husband and wife are mom and dad to two children — daughter Charlotte Grace, 15, and son Rocky James, 12. Actor Seth Green, 51, posed with former Buffy the Vampire Slayer co-star Sarah at the starry movie premiere. He attended the soiree with longtime wife, model and actress Clare Grant, 45. Green wore a black suit, dressing it down with the addition of textured pink and black sneakers. The look was tied together with a graphic T-shirt with a pink, yellow, and teal print that peeked out from under his buttoned blazer. His bombshell wife, whom he wed in 2010, put on a leggy display in a plunging, black, long-sleeved mini dress and heels. The couple marked their decade-and-a-half wedding anniversary in May, with Clare writing on Instagram, 'Marry your best friend. 15 years!' Chase looked like a bombshell in a cream-colored satin mini dress complete with a corset bodice and lacy detail Chase looked like a bombshell in a cream-colored satin mini dress complete with a corset bodice and lacy detail. The actress, who was previously romantically linked to her Bodies Bodies Bodies co-star Pete Davidson, bared her toned legs in the look. She also put on a busty display in the figure-accentuating frock, which she teamed with studded open-toe heels. And the beauty rocked a jaw-length bob that was styled in a center part with one side of the front tucked behind her ear. Madelyn Cline, 27 — who also briefly dated Pete — arrived in a bubblegum pink dress with a plunging neckline. The look gathered at her hips and over her thighs, before flowing into a subtle train that spilled around her feet. In June, Sony Pictures threw fans into a frenzy with the release of a new trailer for I Know What You Did Last Summer, which features an epic callback. The film is a continuation of the 1997 flick of the same name, which starred Hewitt, Prinze Jr., Gellar and Ryan Phillippe as four teens who cover up a horrific accident, only for it to come back to haunt them one year later. The new iteration — in theaters July 18 — brings back Hewitt and Prinze Jr. as Julie James and Ray Bronson from the original, as they try to help a new group of kids being stalked by a killer fisherman. The studio released a first-look trailer in April, which offered a glimpse at Hewitt and Prinze Jr. along with the new cast. The latest teaser shows a slew of new footage, ending with Hewitt repeating her iconic line from the first film — 'What are you waiting for?'

Dora and the Search for Sol Dorado review – plucky teen explorer goes looking for lost Incan magic
If you have a bunch of eight-year-olds over for a sleepover and you're looking for something to stick on the TV, you could do worse than this straight-to-streaming live-action adaptation of the animated show Dora the Explorer. It's a follow-up of sorts to Dora and the Lost City of Gold from 2019, with a new star in the shape of Samantha Lorraine, and aimed at slightly older kids than the cartoon. There are action sequences looted from Raiders of the Lost Ark that had my eight-year-old squealing at the screen, though as it's determined to be undemanding and inoffensive, it's got that plasticky quality that middling kids' films tend to have. Lorraine plays Dora, a teenage explorer who's grown up in the Amazon, raised on her grandfather's stories about the Incas. For years, Dora has been searching for clues to find Sol Dorado, a legendary golden sun that will grant one wish, joined by her cousin Diego (Jacob Rodriguez). The scriptwriters deserve credit for resisting the temptation to bolt on a love interest; instead, we have cousin Diego in the role conventionally given to a female character: the pretty but non-essential sidekick. The movie's villain is celebrity archaeologist Camilla the Crusader (Daniella Pineda) who runs a theme park called Jungle World, where Dora and Diego have summer jobs. When the pair go off in search of Sol Dorado with their pals, Camilla dispatches a band of desperadoes to chase them through Inca tombs booby-trapped with giant bugs and spiked floors. The movie is not lacking in adventure, perhaps what's missing is a sense of fun. Dora didn't have the kids hooting with laughter like they did at the real Indiana Jones. Dora and the Search for Sol Dorado is on Paramount+ now.
