According to fans of the mega store, you can now snap up a dupe of the posh YSL Black Opium, which has become a huge hit online and on the high street.

So if you love the aroma but don't want to spend close to £100 on a perfume, this £2 version is perfect. With such an epic price difference, it comes as no wonder that the Home Bargains perfume has already taken the internet by storm. One mum, who remained anonymous, took to the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group to rave about the purse-friendly buy. She wrote in the post: ''Got these for my teenage daughters today £2 at home bargains. ''They go through so much and they smell amazing, I'll be back for the other dupes.''
