MARILYN Monroe famously stated she wore "only Chanel' perfume to bed - which is all very well if you can afford the £135 price tag.
Thankfully shoppers have found a 'dupe' for the Chanel Mademoiselle scent at M&S, and it'll only set you back £10.

The beauty lover claims it smells like Chanel Coco Mademoiselle

The Marks and Spencer Airport Arrival scent is said to blend 'warm spice with the delicate scent of mimosa.'
The description reads: 'Cardamom and pink pepper give a vibrant opening, while violet and iris soften into a base of sandalwood, musk and vanilla.'
And for a tenner, this scent could be a huge money-saver.
With Chanel Mademoiselle costing £135 at Boots, you can avoid paying £125 for a very similar scent, according to beauty lovers.
Bargain hunter Hannah, who posts under @lueurwithhannah, wrote on TikTok: 'If you want to smell like Coco Mademoiselle try this from M&S.
'Same top notes apparently.
'Here for the marks and Spencer dupes.'
The designer alternative is said to have an 'ambery woody fragrance with a full-bodied character: sensual, deep and addictive.'
It isn't the only M&S perfume to have caused a stir.
DUPE SCENTS
Alex Pavlova, from the UK, took to social media and claimed a selection of perfume dupes from M&S were so good she had ditched the originals.
The £3.50 M&S buy that'll make your whole house smell like a 'boujee candle'
She then went on to share four of her favourite ones and how much money the originals cost.
The first on her list was a dupe for the £234 Le Labo Santal 33 scent.
The cheaper alternative is the Warmth fragrance which costs a fraction of the price at £12.

M&S says the expertly blended scent combines aromatic notes of cardamom, cinnamon, cedarwood and sandalwood to evoke a warming feeling of comfort.
She also revealed that the Spiced Amber fragrance was a dupe of Paco Rabanne's One Million and saves you £80.
Alex was also a fan of Jo Malone's Wood Sage & Sea Salt perfume but at £118 it was on the pricier side.

Thankfully, she found a budget-friendly dupe from the British store with their Ocean Musk fragrance.
And for those who love the fresh and floral notes of Miss Dior perfume but want to avoid the £122 price tag, you're in luck.
Alex revealed that the £10 Blooming Lovely fragrance for M&S was almost identical.

A brand-new boat bar from the Grand Banks crew is cruising into Hudson Yards

A fishing boat has docked at Hudson Yards —and this one serves lobster rolls and martinis. Sailor's Choice, a sprawling 200-seat seafood bar from the team behind beloved boat bars like Grand Banks and Pilot, opened yesterday at 350 11th Avenue at 30th Street. It's the latest project from hospitality duo Alex and Miles Pincus, whose Crew group has practically defined the city's waterfront drinking scene. This time, though, they're doing things a little differently: Instead of floating on the Hudson, they've brought the boat to land. At the heart of Sailor's Choice is a vintage Hinckley fishing vessel, transformed into a full-service bar and surrounded by a sunny deck with yellow-and-white striped umbrellas. 'It's a gentleman's yacht that's designed after a classic Maine lobster boat,' Alex Pincus told Time Out. 'It's one of the most desirable boats in the boating world—I've wanted one my whole life. So the idea of setting one in the plaza and building the bar around it just made sense.' A second bar, tucked inside a retrofitted Airstream, pours spritzes and other breezy cocktails, while the main deck channels East Coast summer with none of the ferry schlep. The menu nods to classic New England seaside fare with a polished Manhattan twist: You'll find lobster BLTs, golden-crisp fish and chips and oysters shucked to order—available by the half or full dozen. For those who like their comfort food with a side of indulgence, the caviar-topped tots are a no-brainer. 'The lobster BLT is the standout for me,' says Pincus. 'It's such a good bite of summer; it's exactly what you want to eat when you're by the water.' On the drinks side, expect yacht-club classics and warm-weather crowd-pleasers: gin and tonics, martinis, watermelon-vodka spritzes and a curated wine list. But don't miss the namesake "Sailor's Choice," a frosty beer served over ice with lime for just $7, lifted straight from the brothers' post-sailing ritual. 'It's what we always drink after being out on the water,' says Pincus. 'A lobster BLT and a Sailor's Choice out there in the sun brings me back home.' Though Hudson Yards may have seemed like an unexpected fit, Pincus says the location wasn't so far off from the team's usual approach. 'All the projects we have ever done are really rooted in place,' he says. 'We took a site that didn't really have anything on it... and tried to explore what the potential of that location is and how it engages with us in the way that we think about restaurants and experience.' Once the idea of placing a boat in the plaza surfaced, he says, 'it all sort of suddenly made sense.' Now open seven days a week from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., Sailor's Choice offers a fresh new reason to eat and drink near the Vessel —and you don't even have to check the ferry schedule.

EuroMillions rolls over AGAIN as UK's biggest prize at £208m goes unclaimed – everything you need to know for next draw

Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THE massive EuroMillions jackpot prize of £208million will roll over again after the money went unclaimed. While the hefty sum wasn't won players should still check their tickets to see if they can claim a smaller chunk of the total prize money on offer. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 An anonymous UK ticket holder won the existing record jackpot of £195 million on July 19, 2022 Credit: Alamy The five main numbers from the draw on Tuesday were 19, 36, 39, 40 and 45 and the two lucky stars were 5 and 6. Four lucky players matched the five main and one star, but nobody matched all five and both the lucky stars. The jackpot prize had already been rolled over previously after the last draw failed to find a winner. The eye-watering sum is the largest prize the UK has seen. Read More on the Lottery NO LUCK! EuroMillions jackpot rolls over AGAIN as UK's biggest ever prize goes unclaimed Andy Carter, senior winners' adviser at Allwyn, said previously: "Tuesday sees the £208 million EuroMillions jackpot still up for grabs. "A win of this magnitude would create the biggest National Lottery winner this country has ever seen - making a single UK winner instantly richer than the likes of Dua Lipa and Harry Kane while also landing them at the number one spot on the National Lottery's biggest wins list. "The EuroMillions jackpot is now capped, so any money that would have gone into increasing the jackpot now boosts prizes in the next winning prize tier, meaning that we could see multiple UK players banking huge prizes for matching just the five main numbers and one Lucky Star." In the previous week's draw the main EuroMillions winning numbers were 20, 21, 29, 30, 35 and the Lucky Stars were 02, 12. One UK ticket-holder became a millionaire after matching five main numbers and one Lucky Star, winning £2.02million. No players won the £500,000 Thunderball jackpot by matching the five Thunderball numbers, 03, 14, 31, 32, 34, and the Thunderball number 06. EuroMillions jackpot winner Frances Connolly reveals surprising first item she bought with £114m jackpot It comes after an anonymous UK ticket holder won the existing record jackpot of £195million on July 19 2022. Just two months earlier, Joe and Jess Thwaite, from Gloucester, bagged £184,262,899 with a Lucky Dip ticket for the draw on May 10. The UK's third biggest win came after an anonymous ticket-holder scooped the £177million jackpot on November 26 last year. It came after 11 millionaires were made on the National Lottery draw in just one week in 2024. One lucky Brit won a cool £33million with their Euromillions ticket. Another ticket, which was snagged in the UK, matched all five main numbers and two Lucky Stars. It came just weeks after two players from the same county scooped £1m each. This year, the largest win was seen in January with £83million. A previous EuroMillions lottery winner, who scooped an eye-watering £107million jackpot, has revealed why he went public with the news. Neil Trotter bagged the whopping prize money and was faced with a huge decision whether or not to remain anonymous. The 45-year-old chose to splash the cash and filled his driveway with a Jaguar and a Porsche - before upgrading their parking spaces to a luxury mansion. But, Neil explained it can be tricky to go public because of pressure to provide people with money. However, he was overjoyed to buy his sister a house, and help out family and friends privately. He told the BBC: "It was quite tricky but I don't really see that there's any option [other] than to go public. "If you want to live the dream - which is have the house, the money and spend it, you've got to go public. "People have said in the past they would hide the money, I think £170million is going to be impossible to hide. "This is the lake that I bought and the big house and I'm living my dream." But he did previously admit he has been hounded by people making up claims to snap up his cash. He said: "I have had loads of people contact me on Facebook, I've probably got about four million kids in this country. "Everyone wants a bit of money." Elsewhere, a lucky couple thought they'd only bagged £2.60 on the lottery - but soon discovered they had scooped the £61million jackpot. Richard and Debbie Nuttall, both 54, from Colne, Lancashire, took home the life-changing sum in the EuroMillions draw. The couple were enjoying a holiday in Fuerteventura, celebrating their 30th wedding anniversary, when they discovered the big win. Richard revealed they originally thought they had won £2.60, but then received another email telling the pair to check their account. 'I thought it was odd and there must be a glitch in the system to get a duplicate email but I logged in again to my National Lottery account to check," he explained. "We were totally stunned, it said we had won over £61million," said the winner.
