Duchess of Edinburgh's designer wedding day perfume is now £30 thanks to Amazon half-price sale
Fragrance lovers will be happy to hear that the Amazon beauty sale is blessing us with an irresistible offer – a substantial £36.79 off on designer Ralph Lauren's Romance Eau De Parfum. This scent isn't just any fragrance; it's said to be particularly dear to Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh.
The Duchess has reportedly been enamoured with this 'ageless' aroma for ages, even picking it for her 1999 wedding to Prince Edward. Now, you can nab the 50ml bottle for £30.79 on Amazon, a total bargain when contrasted with Boots' £66.40 or Debenhams' £68 sticker prices.
A The People article from 1999 divulged that the Duchess selected this perfume for her grand entrance as a bride, noting: "No bride would be dressed without a light spray of perfume and Sophie chose the appropriately named Romance by Ralph Lauren which is fruity and subtly sexy."
Featuring top notes of spicy pink pepper, rose, and jasmine, and a base that blends smooth woods, oak moss, and sophisticated musks, Ralph Lauren's Romance emanates a distinctly feminine, floral bouquet enveloped in a warm, inviting aura. For those looking to emulate the olfactory style of the Princess of Wales, rumour has it that Kate treasures Jo Malone Orange Blossom Eau de Cologne Spray. Perfect for fans of fruity or floral scents, a 30ml bottle is available from LookFantastic at £55.
If you're looking for a different option, Marc Jacobs' Daisy Wild Eau de Parfum is now on sale at LookFantastic with a 20% discount, priced at £68. This fragrance features notes of banana blossom and jasmine.
Ralph Lauren's Romance perfume has a devoted fan base, with many leaving rave reviews. One enthusiast gushed: "One of my favourite fragrances. I can not stay away for long. It reminds me of a garden full of roses."
Another loyal customer revealed: "I have been using this perfume for five years. Sometimes I try new ones, but I always come back to my romance. It has a very subtle fresh smell. It stays for a long period of time,".
A different fan added: "I always have a bottle handy, each and every time I wear it I get compliments galore, remember the same perfume does not always smell the same on different people. Sometimes I spray too much as I can never smell perfume on myself but I get a response every time I use this which is mostly daily, I buy other perfumes but always seem to go back to this one. I have told family and friends don't waste your money buying me perfume unless it's romance."
However, not everyone was won over by the scent's intensity, with some critics mentioning its lack of longevity. A reviewer shared: "Really like the smell, it's refreshing and light but it is not long lasting. So I notice I'm dousing myself in the morning but by midday the smell is very faint."
Over on another corner of the web, a delighted customer penned a rave review, enthusing: "A beautiful fragrance that has resulted in people standing close to me asking what perfume I am wearing and from where did I purchase from."
