A YOUNG woman has revealed that she wanted new perfume, but couldn\u2019t justify the price, so tried out the dupes from Home Bargains instead.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Beauty fan Emily Megan Mays explained that she nabbed two of the perfume dupes from the high-street chain, for just \u00a31.99 each, and was left stunned at how nice<\/span> they smelt.\u00a0<\/p>\n Thrilled with her cheap finds from Home Bargains, Emily took to social media, proudly showing off her bargain buys.\u00a0<\/p>\n Posting online, Emily shared her clip with the caption \u2018The BEST perfume dupes! <\/strong>Run, don't walk to Home Bargains.\u2019<\/p>\n She then said: \u201cHey, guys. So I've just been to Home Bargains. I basically just ran in there because it's next<\/span> to my gym and I'm basically procrastinating to go to the gym.<\/p>\n \u201cI went in there for two things, an energy<\/span> drink and some bin bags. And of course, I've come out with loads of stuff.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Emily then shared the items she nabbed in her huge haul, including energy drinks, deodorant and bin bags.<\/p>\n She then proudly showed off her new perfumes, as she continued: \u201cBut the main reason I\u2019m doing this video is because they have some dupes in there of perfumes and I picked two up because I just couldn't believe the price.<\/p>\n \u201cSo they're these little 50ml ones and they are \u00a31.99 each and they're basically dupes of good perfumes.<\/p>\n \u201cSo for the women, they had four to choose from. They had a Chanel No. 5 and they had this one – which is obviously Marc Jacobs, Daisy,<\/p>\n <\/picture>MYSTIC MEG <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/picture>DRESS DILEMMA <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/picture>FIGHTING FIT <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/picture>NOT CLASSY <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n \u201cIt actually smells really good. I sprayed it just looking around Home Bargains thinking nothing of it, and I was like, \u2018oh, my God, that's actually really nice.\u2019<\/p>\n \u201cI really need perfume at the moment – mine have run out, but I just can't justify the price at the moment, so yeah I picked this up – \u00a31.99.<\/p>\n \u201cAnd I got this one, which is called Opal Black, which is a dupe of the Saint Laurent Black Opium.<\/p>\n \u201cSo yeah, run, don't walk, to Home Bargains to grab these.<\/p>\n \u201cThere weren't many left on the shelf.\u201d<\/p>\n Emily\u2019s TikTok clip, which was shared under the username @emilymeganmays, has clearly impressed many, as it has quickly amassed 23,500 views.\u00a0<\/p>\n Social media users were stunned at the price of the affordable dupes and were eager to share this in the comments.<\/p>\n One person said: \u201c\u00a31.99?!?! Wowza bargain.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n To which Emily replied: \u201cIkr!! They smell great as well!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n Whilst another added: \u201cI got the Si one a few weeks ago and it's lush.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cI get compliments when I wear it.
