Little-known site sees Marc Jacobs' 'perfect summer perfume' slashed to £33
If you've been looking for a new signature scent, Marc Jacobs' Dot, which shoppers say is perfect for summer, is now £33 instead of £99 thanks to this hidden gem savings site
Purchasing a new fragrance requires a lot of thought and can be a real investment, especially if you're looking at designer fashion house perfumes that come with near-£100 price tags, if not even more.
Luckily, if you are on the lookout for a signature scent, little-known savings site, Boop Beauty, has just slashed Marc Jacobs' Dot Eau de Parfum from £99 to £32.99 - that's a huge 67% discount!
Dot is an iconic feel-good fragrance featuring notes of red berries, dragonfruit, and honeysuckle, which add a sweet, refreshing, summer touch. The soft floral notes of jasmine and orange blossom, with a hint of coconut water, give it a light, tropical feel that makes it perfect for summertime.
Inspired by Marc Jacobs' iconic polka dots, the bottle features a gorgeous red-and-black spotted design with oversized butterfly wings for a playful touch. Not to mention, right on trend for this season.
The gold coil around the neck adds a touch of luxe, making it a standout on any dressing table or shelf. Whether you're gifting someone special or treating yourself, Dot is the kind of perfume that feels like summer in both scent and style.
Boop is not the only place where this summery scent is discounted. Currently, Boots is offering a huge 50% off, too, bringing the price down from £99 to £49. And if you're looking for further wallet-friendly fragrances, . Jimmy Choo's popular Flash Eau de Parfum, praised by shoppers for its long-lasting wear and feminine smell, is currently available for less than £25 in a limited-time flash sale on LookFantastic.
Hundreds of shopper reviews praise Marc Jacobs Dot for its fruity and fresh scent. One happy shopper wrote, "It's a lovely, fresh summery fragrance that makes me feel warm and relaxed."
A second added: "I have liked other Marc Jacob's so decided to give this one a try and I am certainly not disappointed I love the top on the bottle and the perfume is not like anything I've bought before, really like it."
The only criticisms came from a few shoppers who claimed Dot does not last quite as long on the skin as some of Marc Jacobs' other fragrances, like his cult-favourite Daisy perfumes.

Daisy Margarita Bar
This Mexican restaurant and bar in Sherman Oaks comes from the same team behind Mírate in Los Feliz. Here, Mírate's award-winning beverage director Max Reis brings that same level of craft and focus to margaritas, which come in both sweet and savory renditions. Whether traditional or inventive, each cocktail is impeccably thought out. There's a bright purple margarita inspired by a Baja-style fish taco, a verdant slushie that riffs on guacamole and a mangoneada version topped with fruity popping boba. What surprised me the most, however, were Daisy's standout culinary offerings, which are a solid cut above most of the other Mexican options in the immediate area. Head chef Alan Sanz, formerly of Maisano in Costa Mesa, brings an upscale, modern twist to classic dishes like aguachile and guacamole. I loved the vegan-friendly aguachile de chayote and impeccably grilled branzino. The botanas (bar snacks) were especially clever, including the chicharrón del parque, which uses a puffed wheat cracker as a base for cured yellowfin and macha verde.

Viral primary school pupil hailed as budding TV success
Carly, 11, and her dad Ryan Pollock, better known on the video sharing platform as Daddy & Carly (or Wee Mary and Jimmy Boy), first started posting comedy sketches online during lockdown. Now, the pair have taken the app by storm with their 'Pilton Tea' videos and Carly's presenter-esque "hello, my lovelies" catchphrase. Talking to the Sunday National, Carly and Ryan shared how they ensure the youngster isn't exposed to trolling, the opportunities that have arisen from their online popularity, and Carly's hopes for the future. READ MORE: 'It's just great': Japan ambassador tries Irn-Bru on visit to whisky distillery 'It started during lockdown, when Carly wanted TikTok. Me and mum were a bit hesitant at first, thinking she was too young, then I was volunteered by mum to do it with her', Ryan explained. 'I thought 'och we'll just have a carry on with it', so we started putting our own twist on trends and doing sketches where Carly was dressed up as an old lady and pretending Nicola Sturgeon was her pal. It ended up going quite viral. 'We did shoutouts on our page for a bit and ended up raising about £1000 for the NHS.' When lockdown ended and Ryan went back to work, they stopped posting for a few years. A couple of months ago they started doing their 'Pilton Tea' series and from there, their popularity exploded. Their original account was deleted, but within two weeks the new account amassed around 190,000 followers — alongside 9.7 million views on one particular video, leading to a special shopping trip for Carly and her family. Carly said: 'There's so many more opportunities now. We got invited to Boots a few days ago and we have an agent now which is so cool. It's just amazing.' Because of Carly's age, the account is run by and heavily monitored by her parents. They don't let the 11-year-old read any comments or make videos by herself, and ensure that any hateful messages left under their videos are deleted and the users blocked from the page. Though she comes across as extremely confident and excitable online, the youngster described herself as actually being 'quite shy', noting that her on-camera personality is partially a character. She told the Sunday National that some boys were showing her videos through a window on her visit to a secondary school, but she seems to take it all in her stride. 'People from school watch my videos a lot, and sometimes it's a wind up, but most of the time they're being really nice. It's quite funny', she explained. READ MORE: Edinburgh Film Festival to conclude with Irvine Welsh documentary premiere The way she carries herself in her videos has led to an influx of comments demanding the TikTok star is given a slot on television, remarking she could be the next big thing à la Lorraine or Alison Hammond. High praise and growing celebrity haven't went to her head, however — Carly 'So I want to go to acting school and hopefully one day be on the telly like all the comments say. 'But if not, I go to a lot of youth centres and one day I want to be a youth worker, open my own centre and do drama classes for other kids.'
