Boots knocks 50% off designer scent dads wear 'all the time'
'My dad liked it so much I gave what was left to him and he wears all the time. So nice'
Boots shopper are snapping up a half price fragrance in time for Father's Day and it has rave reviews. Jimmy Choo Man Blue is usually £78 a bottle but has dropped down to £39 for a 100ml bottle.
It opens up with notes of lavender, black pepper, clary sage and bergamot before settling into a heart of ambergris, leather, cypress, apple and pineapple. There's a warm base of vanilla, sandalwood, vetiver and patchouli.
It's a great option for fans of Eros by Versace (£39.99 for 30ml) who are looking for a slightly better value product. The scent has also proven popular with those who enjoy Explorer by Montblanc (£39 for 30ml).
Man Blue has brought in an average rating of 4.7 out of 5 from over 100 reviews, with 98% of shoppers saying that they would recommend it. One wrote: "This is by far my favourite scent whether it be for everyday use or special occasion. This is gonna be my signature scent! This one was love at first sniff."
Another swears it's a compliment magnet, writing: "This perfume is fantastic! It has the perfect combo of sweet and spicy scent. I've worn it several times now and I get at least 3 compliments every time! Highly recommend!"
A disappointed shopper found the longevity lacking, penning: "I want to love it. It has a great scent. It's on par for what I like. My biggest gripe is that it fades fast. I out this on around 8am and by noon you can barely tell. Unlike the others I have that last all day. If it lasted longer I give it five stars."

It is worth noting that the application of a fragrance can impact the longevity of it. For those looking for a more impressive finish we would advise spraying each pulse point at least once.
Another happy customer shared a bottle with their father, saying: "This smelled of delicious powder and lavender. Was great for day or night. My dad liked it so much I gave what was left to him and he wears all the time. So nice!"

Mark Wright shares insight into 'perfect' first Father's Day with baby daughter
Former TOWIE star, Mark Wright, is looking forward to his first Father's Day this weekend after his wife, Michelle Keegan, gave birth to the couple's daughter, three months ago Mark Wright has lifted the lid on the plans for his first Father's Day after becoming a proud dad to daughter, Palma, three months ago. The former TOWIE star, 38, and wife, Michelle Keegan, also 38, said they'd found a "new love" after becoming parents for the first time, posting an adorable snap of Palma's tiny hand on Instagram when she was born. After enjoying a lavish holiday to Spain this week with their newborn, where the couple also spent time with Mark's sister, Jessica Wright, the Heart FM presenter said he can't wait for Sunday as he gets to celebrate Father's Day for the first time. Opening up about his plans for the special day, Mark said he'd start with an "unreal" breakfast, sharing: "I've only been a dad for three months, but this is what the perfect Father's Day looks like for me..." READ MORE: Michelle Keegan stuns in three summer dresses just 12 weeks after giving birth Speaking to the Daily Mail he continued: "For breakfast, an unreal spread of fresh berries and croissants, pancakes and even waffles. With maple syrup, my favourite. Just like being at a five star hotel. "For lunch imagine being spoilt with a best ever burger. That's exceptional." Moving onto desert, Mark said: 'It's my first father's day and that means I deserve a treat. Collin the caterpillar? Yes, please. They're for the kids, but my baby, she's not on solids yet so I'll take care of it." Shouting off camera he added: "Stay on the milks, Palma!" Mark, Michelle and their daughter jetted off to Spain recently for Palma's first trip abroad as they told fans it was "Princess P's first holiday". Michelle looked sensational on her first sun-kissed holiday as a mum, modelling a selection of dresses from her own Very collection. The Coronation Street star showed off her enviable wardrobe while posed to perfection in Marbella. The actress told fans she was "obsessed" with her new summer dresses, particularly a floor-length brown frock with gold shell detail. Captioning a snap of herself in the dress while posing under the Spanish sun at the swanky £300-a-night SO/ Sotogrande Spa & Golf Resort Hotel, she mused: "One of my fave dresses from this collection, so simple but yet so effective. I'm obsessed with the gold shell detail." Fans couldn't get enough of Michelle - and her wardrobe- as many flocked to Instagram, praising the actress for how good she looked. One gushed: 'How does anyone look that amazing after just having a baby?', while another joked: 'You look absolutely stunning…I am still trying to get my post-baby figure back, and my baby is 17 this year!' Also praising his wife, Mark said Michelle was a 'superhero' as he told Heart FM co-host, Olly Murs: 'It's the biggest achievement of my life it's all I think about but obviously, hats go off to my wife she is an absolute superhuman, a superhero for bringing this baby into the world."

Helen Flanagan puts on a busty display in saucy black lingerie as she takes vicious swipe at ex Scott Sinclair after slashing price of their former family home amid financial struggles
Helen Flanagan set pulses racing in sexy black lingerie before she took a vicious swipe at ex Scott Sinclair on Instagram on Tuesday. The ex Coronation Street star, 34, who shares Matilda, nine, Delilah, six, and Charlie, three, with the footballer, 36, posed up a storm in the skimpy Nikki Inmates set. Helen's eye popping lace outfit boasted a bra that barely contained her surgically enhanced assets, with matching knickers, stockings and suspenders. Taking to her Instagram Stories Helen shared a meme which read: 'What are you getting your baby daddy for Father's day' alongside a clip of Whitney Houston dramatically singing 'nothing' in a scene 1992 film The Bodyguard. Helen and Scott separated in 2022 after 13 years together, before she moved on with Robbie Talbot, 45, only to split last month after a year of dating. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. On her failed romance with ex Scott, Helen revealed she was the one to call time on their relationship. She said they 'were always quietly breaking up and then getting back together' until one day she called it quits for good. Helen told The Sun: 'In the end, it was me who decided [to break up]. I'll always be sad it didn't work out, and we still have love for each other, but we're happier apart.' Speaking to Charlotte Dawson on her Naughty Corner podcast, Helen said: 'I still love him very much, I care about him deeply, but we don't like each other. 'We don't like each other at all, we don't get on. I do know that Scott - he'd never admit it - cares about me too and he does love me. 'But I'm so done, I could never have another relationship again where we would always be bickering. I haven't got another argument in me. As women we try and do anything we can to make it work with the father of your children and I did. But I think for me if I was in a relationship with someone else it would have to be easy because I haven't got the energy in me again, I've done all that with the father of my kids.' Helen went onto say co-parenting is 'hilarious' as she revealed the pair try and avoid each other so they don't 'argue' in front of their kids. She continued: 'I've been a single mum for two years now. Co-parenting is hilarious, we were together for 13 years. 'The last time I saw him, I thought it was quite funny, I was taking the p*** out of him because he had a bucket hat on. I think he was trying not to laugh. 'He lives in Bath and I live in North Manchester so its about five hours and we meet in Birmingham to exchange things and the kids. 'He's throwing things in my boot and I just started taking the mickey out of his bucket hat to lighten the mood. 'We just try and not be in the same house together because the children are the priority and I want a good environment for them and I don't want them to see us arguing.' The actress recently admitted that she's 'really struggling financially' after making a fortune from appearing on the ITV soap and various reality TV shows. Amid her struggles, Helen has reduced the asking price of her six-bedroom detached home, where she once lives with Scott, on the outskirts of Bolton. It was initially on the market for £1.5 million, but it's been dropped by £305,000 - a steep fall of 20 per cent with a new asking price of £1.19million. The three-floored home, spanning over 5,000 square feet, was put on the market in the middle of May. Depending on the size of the mortgage, Helen could still be set for a tidy windfall as she bought it with her ex partner, footballer Scott Sinclair, for £840,000 in June 2021. According to the brochure, two bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms and living rooms - one of which is full of designer handbags, clothes and shoes, 'which really gives it the wow factor'. Helen recently revealed that despite the house already being on the market, she doesn't know where she will move to next - admitting London might be too expensive. She said of the future move: 'We are selling the house now which will be nice to have a change. Because I was with Scott for so long I was used to moving house a lot (because he is a footballer) so it's normal for me. 'I could now never stay in one place for too long I don't think. I like a change, I love it.'
