PICKING out the perfect male fragrance can be tough.

It’s also pricey, with the cost of aftershave, and perfume, jumping by as much as nine per cent this year.

If you’re looking to bring your grooming budget down, it makes sense to switch to one of these designer dupes . . . 

STEAL VICTORY: Paco Rabanne Invictus has been one of 2022’s favourite fragrances.

Get the EDT, £42.99 for 50ml at The Perfume Shop. Or pop into Zara and pick up Blue Spirit EDT, only £12.99 for 80ml. It smells incredibly similar.

FEELING BLUE: Bleu De Chanel is a stunning scent but the price tag is hefty.

A bottle will set you back £89 for 50ml, however many love the Artiscent Atelier Eau De Parfum Vetiver Arome 50ml, £11.99 at Superdrug instead.

That’s a saving not to be sniffed at.

CULT CLASSIC: If you prefer Jean Paul Gaultier, check out Aldi. Lacura Gentleman is £5.99 for 100ml has base notes of vanilla, amber and sandalwood and is in stores on December 8.

It’s an excellent dupe of the classic Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male, currently £34 for 40ml at John Lewis.

SPICE IT UP: Dior Sauvage EDP is certainly at the top of the Christmas list for many this year. A bottle is currently £64 for 60ml at Boots. But at Superdrug, try out the spicy new Bespoke Oriental Woods and Amber EDP, £9.99 for 100ml — very similar.

TOP OF THE RANGE: If you are a fan of something a bit more specific, or not the well-known fragrances, it can be harder to find a budget option.

Try TheEssenceVault.co.uk, who specialise in creating fragrance dupes.

They have a huge selection from around £4.95 a bottle.
