Save £50 on ‘long lasting' Issey Miyake perfume shoppers say is their ‘desert island' scent
A great perfume can be one of the most important things in your beauty arsenal, helping you feel instantly confident and put together with a single spray. Some shoppers have even gone as far as to say that they would consider one perfume in particular their 'desert island' luxury.
The happy customer said: 'If you put me on a desert island and said I can have two luxuries, perfume would be one. Beautiful smell, absolutely love florals.' The perfume that's gotten such high praise is the Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey Eau & Magnolia fragrance, with its fresh and floral scent being a big hit.
Although usually priced at £110 for 100ml, The Perfume Shop has now slashed the price of it to £59.99, saving you £50. This price cut makes the 100ml bottle work out cheaper than the 50ml, which is still priced at £64.99 – the perfect time to get more for your money.
There are also some other great perfume deals on at the moment, with Sephora offering up to 40% off its fragrances, including some big name brands like Prada, YSL and Gucci. Elsewhere LookFantastic is running a 50% off sale on selected perfumes for a limited time.
You can get 100ml of Calvin Klein Eternity for Women Eau de Parfum for £44.50 down from £89, whilst the Marc Jacobs Perfect Intense Eau de Parfum has been slashed to a much more affordable price. Usually available for £71 for a 30ml bottle, it's now on offer for £35.50.
The L'Eau d'Issey Eau & Magnolia however has zesty, refreshing notes combined with light florals and subtle earthy tones, making it a lovely fragrance to wear during the summer, although you could just as easily wear it year round. Those who've bought it have also said it's the perfect scent for any occasion, and can be worn both day and night.
It has top notes of bergamot and neroli for that zingy, fresh scent, with heart notes of rose and magnolia to bring soft, feminine floral hints. It finishes with sandalwood at the base to give it some depth.
Other reviews also praised the L'Eau d'Issey Eau & Magnolia perfume, with one writing: 'Wow. Just wow. I love it even more than expected. Everyone compliments me and asks what I'm wearing!!! Awesome!!'
Another agreed: 'Sample, long lasting scent that is not too strong, it's refreshing and light.'
Some weren't as much of a fan of the scent as others, with one shopper saying: 'The smell is alright, but I probably won't be getting anymore since it just really doesn't suit me. I do recommend for others try it out for themselves.'
Someone else wrote: 'This smelled like your typical floral scent! Nothing special about it. Didn't last too long either. Something I would keep in the car or somewhere for a quick spritz but wouldn't be a top pick or everyday wear perfume.'
However others couldn't get enough, writing: 'I really love this perfume, it is perfect for day and night and lasts a long time.'

Marc Jacobs perfume that ‘smells wonderful' and is ‘always admired' is now £35
The Marc Jacobs Perfect Intense perfume is said to 'smell wonderful' and get wearers plenty of compliments – and it's just been slashed by 50% from £71 to £35.50 in a flash sale This summer has seen some amazing sales launched at some of our favourite beauty retailers, and one that we've been keeping a very close eye on (and shopping constantly) is LookFantastic's. Whilst it's been great for restocking some of our makeup and skincare faves, it's also been offering some brilliant deals on fragrances, with plenty of big brands slashed by 50%. One deal not to be missed is the Marc Jacobs Perfect Intense Eau de Parfum, which has been slashed from £71 to £35.50 for a 30ml bottle. Whilst there's no word on how long the sale will last, it's a great opportunity to bag yourself your favourite fragrance or take a punt on a new scent without breaking the bank. The perfume is a great scent for summer, full of zesty and floral notes that are guaranteed to feel like heading off on holiday every time you spray it. The top notes are roasted almonds, pink pepper and grapefruit zest for a spicy, fresh and earthy scent, before giving you floral heart notes of jasmine and daffodil. It finishes with base notes of sesame oil, sandalwood and cashmere, which gives a rich, warm scent with a 'second skin finish'. The Perfect Intense Eau de Parfum was created to be both comforting and unconventional, and designed to inspire individuality and self-expression. LookFantastic isn't the only retailer offering some great savings on fragrances. Sephora has slashed its perfumes by up to 40%, with offers on brands like Kayali, YSL and Prada. If you love Marc Jacobs' perfumes and want to add some more to your collection, you can also get 50% off Daisy Glow Limited Edition Eau de Toilette at Debenhams, which has been slashed from £73 to £36.50 for a 50ml bottle. Alternatively, The Perfume Shop has deal stacked its 50ml bottle of Perfect Intense, taking it from £102 to £39.99 – just £4.50 more than buying the 30ml bottle at LookFantastic. Shoppers have been praising the Perfect Intense Eau de Parfum over on LookFantastic, saying: 'Lovely product, smells wonderful and was delivered really quickly.' A second agreed: 'Love this! This is a gorgeous perfume for day and night. The scent lasts a long time and my perfume is always admired by my friends and work colleagues.' Some found the Perfect Intense Eau de Parfum didn't quite live up to its 'intense' name, with one saying: 'A heavier version of the Perfect perfume but I expected it to last a lot longer and while it is 'heavier' it's not necessarily stronger. Still very nice but I think I would just repurchase the original before getting this again.' However others loved its longevity, writing: 'Really lovely bottle. Smell is nice but smells strong and lasts properly.'

The best Adam Sandler movies, ranked
If you'd suggested in the '90s that Adam Sandler may win an Oscar one day, well, the title of a certain comedy album comes to mind. But collaborating with Paul Thomas Anderson has a way of shifting perceptions. For the director, his followup to Magnolia qualified as a toe-dip in the waters of romantic comedy. For Sandler, it was a stark departure, you have to wonder what Anderson saw that others to that point didn't. As Barry Egan, a bathroom supply salesman with crippling social anxiety, Sandler turns the volume all the way down, save the occasional burst of rage. Whatever Anderson perceived in him, he was right: it's an affecting yet still funny performance that still seems like an outlier even now.

Braless Lena Dunham embraces Natalie Portman while filming new Netflix rom-com
Lena Dunham excitedly embraced Natalie Portman, whom she teamed up with to co-produce her new Netflix rom-com Good Sex, in Manhattan's East Village on Monday. The 39-year-old writer-director bared her tattooed sleeves in a $148 GapStudio 'Draped Denim Slip' maxi-dress, matching blue neckerchief, and black Nike sneakers. Lena - who boasts 3M Instagram followers - shared a snap of her fit on Monday captioned: 'Really enjoying dressing for set and beyond this summer.' And the 44-year-old Oscar winner looked comfy in a beige T-shirt, grey sweatpants, and white Keds 'Champion Canvas Lace-Up' sneakers. Natalie (born Neta-Lee Hershlag) hauled a tote emblazoned with The New Yorker and she wore dark sunglasses over her make-up free complexion. Portman later got into costume as her newly-single character, successful couples therapist Ally, who's caught in a love triangle very similar to Celine Song's recent rom-com Materialists. The former child star slipped her slim 5ft3in figure into a $2,048 Prada 'Pleated Sablé' shirt, black mini-skirt, $1,115 Jacquemus 'The Calino' ring handbag, and patent leather long-tongue loafers. Natalie - clutching a to-go cup from Café Chrystie - also wore cat-eye sunglasses and $320 Jacquemus 'The Rond Carré' earrings as part of her costume. Portman's younger onscreen leading man - a Brooklyn hipster - will be played by Gen-Z singer Role Model (born Tucker Pillsbury) who, at 28, is 16 years her junior. The Israeli-born, Long Island-raised stunner's older onscreen leading man - successful Manhattanite Alan - will be played by Mark Ruffalo who, at 57, is 13 years her senior. The four-time Oscar nominee could be seen walking and talking with Dunham as they headed to the set. 'We are about a quarter through our shoot,' the eight-time Emmy nominee told THR last week. 'And as expected, no spoilers here — Natalie Portman is a very, very good actress. It's playing with the romantic comedy form to try to say something about our expectations about relationships, about love and about sex. I think my favorite romantic comedies — whether it's When Harry Met Sally, or Four Weddings and a Funeral, or Love and Basketball — I mean, these are movies that challenge our perceptions about what love is in the era that we live in. 'So that was the goal here, and it's just a joy to be with Natalie, Rashida Jones, Mark Ruffalo, Meg Ryan, and Tucker Pillsbury a.k.a. Role Model. They're all such interesting performers who are bringing such specificity to these parts, and I'm really enjoying my time in the trenches of this genre.' Indeed, Lena successfully courted rom-com queen Meg Ryan to play a mystery role in Good Sex after running into her at Taylor Swift's Eras Tour concert in London last August. The 44-year-old Oscar winner looked comfy in a beige T-shirt, grey sweatpants, and white Keds 'Champion Canvas Lace-Up' sneakers Natalie (born Neta-Lee Hershlag) hauled a tote emblazoned with The New Yorker and she wore dark sunglasses over her make-up free complexion The former child star slipped her slim 5ft3in figure into a $2,048 Prada 'Pleated Sablé' shirt, black mini-skirt, $1,115 Jacquemus 'The Calino' ring handbag, and patent leather long-tongue loafers 'I decided, it's now or never, and I'm going to shoot my shot. She couldn't be a lovelier person,' Dunham revealed to Variety earlier this month. 'Shout-out Taylor — thank you for that. She brings everyone together; she makes the world go round.' As for the music, the Nora Ephron protégée enlisted her British-Peruvian husband of four years, Luis Felber, to compose the score just like he did with her previous projects Too Much and Sharp Stick. Back in January, Netflix won the bidding war in order to procure Good Sex for an eye-popping $55M. 'I really just want people to sit on a couch with their moms and their besties and lean in,' Lena told Variety. 'I love watching other filmmakers fight for the theatrical-release element — but I don't think this will live or die by that.' HarperCollins will publish Dunham's second memoir Famesick on September 1. Lena successfully courted rom-com queen Meg Ryan (R) to play a mystery role in Good Sex after running into her at Taylor Swift's Eras Tour concert in London last August Darren Aronofsky's 2010 psychological thriller Black Swan - which earned Natalie her Academy Award - is returning to over 200 IMAX theaters on August 21 and 24 in honor of the 15th anniversary. Portman famously fell for her ex-husband - choreographer/dancer Benjamin Millepied - on the set of Black Swan in 2009 while he was still dating Isabella Boylston. Last year, the Fountain of Youth action star divorced the 48-year-old Frenchman following 11 years of marriage amid cheating allegations, and they're co-parents of son Aleph, 14; and daughter Amalia, 8.
