Customers are going wild for a £4 Ikea candle that’ll make your home smell just like a £290 Tom Ford scent
SCENTED candles are an absolute essential over the colder months.
With so many of us spending more time inside, you want your home to be smelling gorgeous as you loll around on the sofa.
And shoppers have spotted a fab option that smells just like a fancy designer scent in a rather unlikely location: Ikea.
Emily Schroth is a lifestyle influencer who regularly shares clips with her 14.3k TikTok followers.
And in a recent video that racked up more than 695k views, she advised viewers “Don’t walk, run to Ikea” to pick up the great find that she’d spotted.
In the clip, Emily showed off the KOPPARLÖNN Scented Candle ceramic jar, which sells in store for just £4.
According to the Ikea website, the stunning piece has a burning time of around 25 hours, and is a spicy blend of cherry, almond and saffron notes.
Shoppers clearly can’t get enough of it, with one customer leaving a review stating: “This candle smells like if you were transported to an adorable cottage where all your loved ones are baking the tastiest treats for you while you bask in comfort.”
But Emily says that it’s not only a delicious aroma in its own right, but it smells just like Tom Ford’s luxurious Lost Cherry Eau de Parfum.
A 50ml bottle of the pricey perfume will set you back a staggering £290, and is described as a “warm and spicy” scent with a miss of cherry, Turkish rose and jasmine.
The savvy shopper described the item as a “Tom Ford dupe as a candle”, and advised followers to go and nab them as fast as they could.
Her clip racked up more than 12.5k likes, with users flocking to the comments to share their love for gorgeous candles.
“Now we’re going to Ikea too,” one commented, tagging their friend.
“We need to test!!!” another wrote.
If candles are your thing, why not head to Home Bargains, where they have a stunning £2.99 candle that’s a fab dupe of a £25 Bath & Body Works one.
TKMaxx also has the delicious-smelling Vila Hermanos Fiery Rouge in stock, which shoppers say smells near-identical to the £90 Baccarat Rouge 540 candle.
