IT’S one of the most popular scents in the beauty world – Flowerbomb by Viktor & Rolf.
Sweet, warm and yet not too floral, the posh perfume has amassed a cult following since its release in the early 2000s.

But like with all designer aromas, the summery perfume – ideal for the sunny season – also comes with a hefty price tag.
Luckily, thrifty beauty lovers have spotted a dupe of the legendary scent – and not only is it said to smell like the real thing, it’s also more than 17 times cheaper.
According to bargain-mad shoppers, the mega discount retailer B&M has launched their take on the cult favourite aroma – and you’ll even get spare change from £5.
One fan of the store, Jade Louise Kerr, took to the popular Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group to show off the fabulous find.
So, if you’re looking to grow your perfume collection without forking out a fortune, it may be worth to check out the local B&M.
Similarly to the real scent, B&M’s Floral Bust comes in a stunning pink bottle that’s shaped like a blossom, and 100ml of the product will cost you just £3.99.
Informing fellow beauty buffs of the epic find, Jade said in her post: ”£3.99 in B&M, smells like Viktor and Rolf flower bomb.”
Those who have already tried the scent for themselves, said it was ”nice” – however, many did warn you might need to top it up every now and then.
”I’ve bought a few of these copies from b&m they smell nice but don’t last long, which u expect from a cheap perfume,” wrote one person.
Another agreed, writing: ”I’ve got some of these dupes from B&M they smell nice BUT they don’t last long at all.”
A third chimed in: ”you might not be able to smell it on yourself after about 20 mins, other people can still smell it.”
Despite this, it still works out cheaper to go through a full bottle of the cut-price version compared to forking out almost £80 for the designer bottle.
