Lidl fans go wild over its dupe for the Chloe perfume – it smells like the real thing but costs almost £50 cheaper
BEAUTY fans are racing to get their hands of its dupe for the iconic Chloe perfume that retails for under a fiver.
The pleasant news was shared on TikTok by the user Taurus Moon Official, who bought the product after seeing numerous reviews online.
”Seen loads of people buying this, so I thought I’d try it out and see if it actually does smell like Chloe,” the blonde told her 330k followers on the social media app.
Unlike the floral scent of Chloe, which retails for over £55, Lidl’s version, named Chalou, goes for just £4.49, and even the signature pink packaging is almost identical.
After opening the box and spritzing it on her wrist, the shopper gave a positive review: ”It actually smells really nice.
”Go get yourself one of these,” she urged.
Of course, fellow fans did not need telling twice – many said they’d be rushing to the nearest store.
”Oh must have a look for this next time I’m in!” commented one Lidl enthusiast.
Another penned: ”I’ll give it a whirl.”
”i wear this it smells so good,” a third shared their opinion.
It’s not just Lidl that’s upped their beauty game – rival Aldi has come out with heaps of dupes for fragrances too, amongst of which are copies for Tom Ford.
Shopper Nicole Dolan said she was surprised Aldi hadn’t been sued over the scents because they were so similar.

The scents available were Tobacco and Vanilla and Sandalwood and Jasmine.
Each bottle contained 50ml of perfume and came in swanky black packaging.
Each one retailed for £5.99 and was on a dedicated stand by the checkouts, according to Nicole.
The Tobacco and Vanilla scent is a dupe for Tom Ford’s Tobacco Vanille, which costs a whopping £265 for the same amount of perfume.
The Sandalwood and Jasmine scent is a dupe for Tom Ford’s Private Blend Santal Blush – which costs an eye watering £490 a pop.
The dupes are part of Aldi’s Hotel Collection range famed for its likeness to luxury products.
The budget supermarket chain has also created Jo Malone, Yankee Candle and skincare dupes as part of the collection.
Nicole said: “I love the Aldi dupes.
“I think that it’s actually so funny that they’ve not been sued.”
She called the smell “incredible” and “seemed to last a long time”.
Nicole continued: “This is something to wear to work.
“I would keep my expensive perfume for like, going out and things like that.
“But I think that’s actually so funny for £4.99 – saved £190 on a perfume.
“And if you want, you can lie and say, ‘I am wearing Tom Ford’ but who does that?”
