Boots offering limited edition 'iconic' luxury perfume at its lowest price
Perfume fans have branded this particular perfume as a "beauty icon." Fans of designer perfumes will know that they are a pricey investment. However, we know where to get one limited edition bottle for its cheapest price. One brand that has earned a massive reputation over the years for its luxurious fragrances is Lancôme, with the French house officially celebrating its milestone 90th anniversary this year. To celebrate, the luxury house recently dropped the new La vie est belle L'Eau de Parfum Sparkling Edition that is worth £100 for a 50ml, but is available to bag for just £50 at Boots - offering a nifty 50 percent on the latest addition. To sweeten the deal, the health and beauty chain is one of the only retailers offering the perfume, and at its cheapest price, as rival The Perfume Shop is the only other place it can be bought from, where it's still full price. Debuting in 2012, La Vie est Belle has become the brand's most distinctive fragrance, as it has become famed for its iris-based aroma that was created exclusively by three of France's greatest perfumers. Lancôme La vie est belle L'Eau de Parfum Sparkling Edition, 50ml £100 £50 Boots Buy here Product Description The pink-tinted perfume opens on a "timeless" and "perfect" balance of iris pallida and accord gourmand, before delving into notes orange blossom and jasmine sambac. Ending on vanilla accord and patchouli to add depth to the overall scent, there's a reason why many loyal buyers say that it is one of their "most complimented" scents in their collection. Adding to its luxury aesthetic, this new collectors edition of the iconic perfume boasts the same renowned bottle, but it now features sparkling accents of silver and pink, alongside a delicate ribbon and wings. We have spotted other nifty deals on other bottles at different retailers, as Superdrug shoppers who purchase a bottle of Marc Jacobs' Daisy Wild Eau de Parfum, priced from £60 for 30ml, can get a free AirPods case from the designer brand. Another perfume that offers exclusivity is Elizabeth Arden's White Tea Eau de Toilette, which we have so far only found on Amazon where a 100ml bottle costs £24.94, down from £42. With Boots being the cheapest retailer for the La Vie est Belle scent, it's worth knowing that it has amassed a 4.8 rating from devoted fans who have praised it as "timeless" and a " beauty icon."

One glowing review read: "I bought La Vie est Bella long ago and I keep buying it. La Vie est Belle is an iconic fragrance that makes me feel classy and elegant. When I have it everybody always say "you smell so good..!" That is the point of La Vie est Belle." A second shopper remarked: "A beauty icon. This fragrance has become my signature beauty staple, a warm subtle perfume that resembles sophistication." Another loyal buyer said: "Absolutely timeless. Many fragrances tend to change on my skin and lose their appeal—but not this one. It remains beautiful from the first spritz to the dry down. It's my go-to and truly one of my all-time favorites!" Beauty deal of the week YSL Black Opium remains an iconic perfume - and we know where to bag the newest edition for its cheapest price. The YSL BLack Opium Le Parfum offers a more vanilla-heavy fragrance that has been hailed as "intoxicating" in reviews, with a 50ml now half-price at Boots after being dropped from £115 to £57.50. Massive saving aside, it's the cheapest it can be bought for at the moment, as rival retailers Superdrug, Lookfantastic and The Perfume Shop still stock it at full-price. This interpretation of the iconic perfume was only launched in 2022, with its original floral gourmand fragrance still offering its famed notes that include pear accord, green mandarin, orange flower petals, jasmine sambac and cinnamon. However, the iconic coffee accord has been twisted with four different, yet still complimentary, notes of vanilla, which is said to be its most important ingredient, to create an "unexpected smoothness, with uncompromising intensity." Meanwhile, the unique glossy bottle that has been crafted from a precious black stone, with its dazzling glitter emblem at the heart, eludes to the luxuriousness of the fragrance contained within. As for the YSL Black Opium Le Parfum, Boots shoppers wanting to take advantage of the half-price discount will be glad to hear it has amassed a 4.7 rating from thousands of customers who say it "lasts all day" and "literally turns heads" when it is worn. One five-star review read: "I love the fragrance. I used a lot the first time, not realising how intense it was. It lasts all day and continues to smell great. I literally turn heads when I wear it." Don't miss Boots' half-price discount on the YSL Black Opium Le Parfum (50ml) that is now £57.50, down from £115. Although it boasts a near perfect rating, it's fair to say that the scent was not suited to everyone's tastes, as one three-star review read: "The scent is super strong and sweet. It would be a no for me." Comparatively, another five-star review read: "This is my most complimented perfumes. It lasts a very long time. It's suitable for every occasion. It can be worn all year long. It's one of my all time favorites." Boots shoppers can get the Lfor just £50 now.

Duchess of Edinburgh's designer wedding day perfume is now £30 thanks to Amazon half-price sale
The Duchess of Edinburgh is said to have worn this designer scent on her wedding day– and Amazon is now offering it at a discount in its beauty 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."
