If there is one designer fragrance that has been a consistent favourite for many perfume fans, it is Thierry Mugler's iconic Alien.
However, like many luxury fragrances, it can often be fairly pricey, with some retailers stocking it up to over £120 a bottle. Luckily, if you're on the lookout for a good dupe, then Amazon shoppers have found one to try.
Verset Parfums Radiance Eau de Parfum For Her (100ml) has received high praise from beauty fans on Amazon, with many claiming that the "lush" scent "smells exactly the same" as the popular Alien fragrance. Plus, Amazon is offering £5 off for every shopper today (September 15) - just enter the code "AMAZONUK25" in the "Gift Card, Voucher and Promotional Code" section of the checkout page.
The perfume brand, which is exclusively made for pharmacies, develops a diverse range of luxury-inspired fragrances for men and women that come without the designer price tag.
Both fragrances are described as being "woody" and "oriental", whilst also featuring notes of jasmine and amber. The main difference in the ingredients that we could find was that the Radiance EDP features orange blossom, while Alien has notes of cashmeran.
Of course, the other main difference would be the bottles. The 'dupe' is bottled in a simple, classy glass bottle. Meanwhile, Thierry Mugler's unique purple bottle is almost as iconic as the fragrance itself.
Even better, the Verset Parfums Radiance EDP will only set you back £23.95 for a 100ml bottle, while a 100ml refillable bottle of Alien is currently priced at £85 at Boots. LOOKFANTASTIC stocks a smaller 30ml bottle for a whopping £65 and Superdrug stocks a 60ml bottle for £125.
So, differences in the bottles aside, shoppers can get themselves a very similar
