Perfumes from well-known fashion or cosmetic brands often cost a lot of money.

Aldi and Lidl offer cheap alternatives.

The scent is often similar, but the price difference is striking.

Almost everyone wears them, but it's not cheap pleasure: perfumes.

In conventional perfumeries, the bottles from the well-known brands often cost between 60 and well over 100 euros.

At German discounters like Lidl and Aldi * there are cheap alternatives.

Often these Chanel No. 5, Jean Paul Gautier and Co. smell confusingly similar.

There is a special strategy behind this.

Aldi and Lidl: Confusingly similar: Discounters produce cheap perfumes

If you don't want to spend high amounts on a fashion branded perfume on a regular basis, you can purchase a blatantly cheaper alternative from discounters such as Aldi, Lidl and Co.

Many of the discounter fragrances are very similar to the originals from Chloé, Chanel and Boss.

But there are still differences between Dupes and Original.

The discounters save on the production costs of their perfumes, for example.

They mostly contain synthetic fragrances.

As a result, the fragrance stays on the skin for a shorter time and disappears faster after application than is the case with the expensive original branded fragrances.

Aldi and Lidl save on manufacturing costs and design

Another difference immediately catches the eye: the flacons.

Discounter fragrances usually have a very simple and simple flacon design, which also saves money in production.

Since Aldi, Lidl * and Co. are based on large luxury brands when it comes to the odor combinations of their fragrances, they can also make savings when creating fragrances.

Aldi and Lidl have to adhere to the same quality standards as Chanel and Co.

So if you place less value on a long-lasting fragrance from a pretty flacon of a fashion brand, you can use the discounter and save a few euros at the checkout.

However, it is still not entirely the original fragrance, some even just smell similar to the corresponding branded product.

Dermatologically, the cheap dupes must adhere to the same quality standards as branded products.
