We all love smelling incredible, but that doesn’t mean we love paying high-end prices for sophisticated and luxurious smelling perfumes. Luckily, social media users have discovered an uncanny dupe of this €150 YSL scent.

High-end perfumes are a fabulous luxury to have, however the price-tags can be hefty!

If you’re on the hunt for a new scent that won’t break the bank, then look no further than Zara! Zara offers an extensive range of perfumes and body sprays, but their scent named “Golden Decade” is going viral on social media for being an undeniable dupe for Yves Saint Laurent’s perfume “Libre”.

YSL’s scent is described as a grand floral Eau de Parfum with orange blossom flowers from Morocco and the aroma of lavender from France.

Zara’s “Golden Decade” captures similar notes of orange blossom and lavender and is described on the Zara website as being: “enveloping, warm and elegant eau de parfum for the woman who wants to transmit a sense of freedom and express her emotions to the extreme.

A modern white floral bouquet (jasmine, orange blossom) sublimated by the juicy facets of mandarin reveals the seductive side of every woman. A sweet and addictive lavender adds a final touch with its original and unparalleled facets.”

The most notable difference between the two scents is without a doubt the price tags, with a 90 ml bottle of YSL’s famous eau de parfum priced at a whopping €150, and 80 ml of Zara’s duplicate for the high-end scent retailing for €22.95! An absolute no brainer if you ask us!

When TikTok users caught wind of this dupe, they went absolutely crazy for it, with one user saying: “smells incredibly beautiful and identical to Libre Intense. My most complimented perfume and everybody wants to know what I was wearing! Easily Zara’s best perfume release.”.

Another confirmed the similarities between the two saying: “I wear Libre and my daughter came to visit wearing this and I knew it smelled familiar lol love it”.

A third user commented: “my most complimented as well! It lasts up to one day for me.”

Zara is known for recreating the smell of high-end perfumes for a much more reasonable price tag and “Golden Decade” is not the only example of them doing this.

Zara has also created a dupe for Maison Francis Kurkdjan Baccarat Rouge 540, which will set you back €245, with “Red Temptation” for only €29.95.

Jo Malone’s Wood Sage and Sea Salt cologne was also duplicated by Zara with the scent “Ebony Wood”, which will reduce your perfume cost from €95 for the Joe Malone scent to €29.95 for Zara’s copycat!

So next time you’re searching for a luxurious smelling perfume without the luxurious price tag, check your local Zara store for a dupe!
