FRAGRANCE-LOVERS will be dashing to the checkouts of Home Bargains to secure their latest Star Buy: new Sol de Janeiro dupe sets.
The cleverly titled ‘Santa de Cruz’ range has been posted in an online Facebook bargain hunters page – and has caused an absolute frenzy online.
Beginning at the insanely low price of £2.99, the dupe range includes sprays, bodywash and creams.
Viral brand Sol de Janeiro has seen exponential growth in the last couple of years, cementing themselves as a firm favourite among Gen-Z.
The brand is inspired by Brazilian beach culture and uses sweet and floral scents to transport you to the sunny January summers of Brazil.
Their star products are their skin-tightening Brazilian Bum Bum Cream (pronounced as ‘boom boom cream’) and their Perfume Mist.
Their signature scent is named ‘Cheirosa 62’ and has notes of salted caramel and pistachio.
The brand currently sells a ‘Bum Bum Jet Set’ kit for $32.00 USD (£25 GBP), which includes:
-Brazilian Bum Bum Cream (50ml)
-Brazilian Play Moisturizing Shower Cream-Gel (90ml)
-Cheirosa 62 Perfume Mist (30)ml
But Home Bargains has had their own crack at the iconic products, and shoppers are going wild for them.
The new Santa de Cruz range includes a dupe of the Jet Set kit – named ‘Santa de Cruz Travel Gift Set’, which includes:
-Smoothing Body Cream (50ml)
-Fragranced Body Wash (90ml)
-Fragranced Body Spray (40ml)
The scents available are Pink Lychee and Dragonfruit, Cherry Blossom and Sweet Plum, Vanilla Almond and Salted Caramel.
However, this set comes in at the much lower price of just £3.99
A whopping price difference of £21
The dupe set also includes a mini-loofah – which the Sol de Janeiro Jet Set kit does not.
Other gift sets in the Santa de Cruz range include a bundle of three body creams for just £5.99
And a three pack of fragrances for just £2.99
