Beauty editor Laura had the opportunity to sample the fragrance before its release and shared her thoughts: "I'm not normally one for fruity fragrances, but this is utterly irresistible. It's much more tart than sweet, and transports me to a particular moment or memory more than any other perfume I've ever smelt. A definitely summer hit."

Jo Malone launches new ‘best ever' £59 perfume that smells just like ice cream
If you're after a new perfume for summer but aren't keen on the large number of beachy, coconutty, sun cream-like scents that fill the beauty aisles at this time of year, then we've found the perfect alternative. Popular British fragrance brand Jo Malone London has just dropped its latest collection for summer, and it's just divine. The Raspberry Ripple collection is, as its name suggests, inspired by the classic ice cream flavour, and inspired by nostalgic childhood trips to the great British seaside. While a full-size 100ml bottle of Raspberry Ripple Cologne costs £128, you can buy a travel-friendly 30ml bottle for £59 from the Jo Malone website and Cult Beauty (and both come topped with cute candy-striped bows). Jo Malone London describes this new summery scent as " A scrumptious raspberry ripple ice cream. Sharp-scarlet juices of lush raspberries and redcurrants swirling through white musk. Vivacious and enticing," with a top note of redcurrant, a heart note of raspberry, and a base note of white musk. As Raspberry Ripple Cologne only dropped today, customer comments about it are yet to build up, but there is one five-star review already on the Jo Malone website, which calls it " another best ever". "I bought this as soon as it was launched via the early pre-sale, so blind without smelling. I've done that with my last few limited edition scents, which have all been excellent," the shopper wrote. "This is no different and does not disappoint and I love it! Fruity and sharp but with a lovely background hint of subtle musk of some sort! Not too sweet but reminds me of summers and ice creams, It's very distinctive and for me, lasting well. I just love it! The packaging is also lovely, another JM triumph. I'm a big fan!" Our beauty editor Laura also had a sniff before it launched, and says, "I'm not normally one for fruity fragrances, but this is utterly irresistible. It's much more tart than sweet, and transports me to a particular moment or memory more than any other perfume I've ever smelt. A definitely summer hit." If, however, beachy, salty fragrances are more your summer scent vibe, you should definitely check out this £25 body mist that's been getting me so many compliments recently; I've even ditched my pricier perfumes for it. For something similar to this but with a bit more staying power, you could also try Jo Malone London's new Beach Blossom Cologne, £86, or the cult classic Estée Lauder Bronze Goddess Eau Fraîche Skinscent, which currently has 25% and is down to £43.50.

M&S axes popular summer staple from all UK supermarket stores
The news came to light after a number of shoppers reached out to the chain asking where the products had gone. Likely due to the recent heatwave and warm weather over the last few weeks M&S discontinued one of its beloved summer products, leaving shoppers heartbroken. The upmarket supermarket chain confirmed recently on X - formerly Twitter - that it had axed its Plant Kitchen ice cream. The news came to light after a number of shoppers reached out to the chain asking where the products had gone. Likely due to the recent heatwave and warm weather over the last few weeks. One X user asked: "Have you stopped doing the plant kitchen ice cream?" A second also wanted to know asking M&S: "Have you discontinued the Plant Kitchen vanilla ice cream?" M&S responded to the X user asking if there was any flavour in particular they wanted to know about, as they would check with the supermarket's food team. The X user noted that the vanilla product was their favourite; however, he had not seen both of the Plant Kitchen flavours for a while. M&S first released vegan ice cream flavours back in 2020 under its Plant Kitchen range. The first two flavours were Raspberry Ripple and Chocolate. Both products were made with coconut cream with the former flavour consisting of vanilla and Scottish raspberries, and the latter with chocolate. In 2022, M&S launched three new flavours with Madagascan Vanilla, Mango & Passionfruit, and Vegan Salted Caramel & Biscuit. All the ice-cream flavours were available in M&S stores and retailed at £3 for a 500ml tub However, M&S has confirmed that it has now discontinued its Plant Kitchen Ice Cream range. In the post to X, M&S said: "Hi there - I'm sorry for the delay! As suspected, the Plant Kitchen ice creams have been discontinued." The retailer did not share why it's own-brand range had been scrapped from stores, noting that it now stocked Booja Booja Vanilla ice cream, and Caramel Pecan Praline ice cream. They added: "I hope this helps!" Join Money Saving Club's specialist topics For all you savvy savers and bargain hunters out there, there's a golden opportunity to stretch your pounds further.

Veganism and plant-based diets became incredibly popular towards the end of the 2010s and continued into the early 2020s. The launch of the "Veganuary" campaign, which started in 2014 and saw participants commit to being vegan for the entire month of January, spearheaded the awareness of the diet. Research by comparison site Finder suggested there were an estimated 2.5million vegans in the UK in 2024. This equates to 4.7% of the population, and the number has increased by roughly 1.1 million since 2023. Due to the rise, many businesses and food manufacturers started to create vegan and plant-based ranges. However, the momentum for the movement has since slowed down, and companies have been slowly reducing the number of vegan products in their ranges. Many are citing the cost of manufacturing and the drop in demand as the reasons for the moves. Most recently, Nestle announced that it was discontinuing its Vegan KitKat product from the UK - with the treat set to be gone by the summer.
