Savvy shoppers have noticed that Black Dusk perfume, which retails at just £2 for 100ml, is a dupe for YSL’s Black Opium, which retails at around £90 for a 90ml size, depending on where you shop.
Black Dust is very similar in packaging to Black Opium and is said to be “An oriental fragrance with a strong personality yet surprisingly fresh scent”.
Black Opium with its distinctive pink and black bottle is described as “captivating and energising” with notes of black coffee and vanilla.
Savvy shoppers took to the Poundland Appreciation Society group on Facebook to share their excitement about the popular fragrance.
One commented: “This is a dupe of Black Opium, been buying it from Poundland for years.”
While another said: “Black Dust is Black Opium, love that one.”
One person also added that her local discount store was selling the fragrance for even less at £1.
Of course, keep in mind that the scents may not last as long or aren’t as strong, so bear this in mind before you opt for a dupe.
