Beauty fans have said they have found a perfect dupe of Alien perfume that could save you a massive £60.

According to Mugler bosses, the designer perfume scent is made up of: "Floral fun, with top notes of citric mandarine, sensual heart notes of neroli (orange blossom) and jasmine and base notes of cashmere wood, amber and vanilla.

"This fragrance is sensual, sexy, fun and mysterious."

And according to fans, the Superdrug Layering Lab Body Mist 100ml in the scent Blossom smells identical but is a fraction of the price.
