Vera Wang Princess for Women Eau de Toilette, £18.99 (was £66)

The Vera Wang Princess for Women Eau De Toilette is an unmissable beauty deal, as it is the biggest reduction I have ever seen on this fragrance.

The 100ml eau de toilette originally retailed for £66, but it’s just dropped to £18.99 in the Boots Black Friday sale, which is an almighty saving of £47.01.

Technically, you could buy this perfume three times, and still have change, which could make your Christmas gift shopping an absolute breeze.

This gift would make the best Christmas gifts for girlfriend list, as well as for your mum and sister.

The Vera Wang Princess scent first launched in 2006, and almost 20 years later and the scent is still as popular as ever – and not least because of it’s heart-shaped bottle and delicate crown lid detail.

The fragrance is a multi-layered sweet, fruity yet floral, feminine scent.

It features top notes of apple, waterlily and delicate apricot, combined with heart notes of pink guava, and Tahitian tiare flower – with base notes of wild tuberose, sweet vanilla chiffon and dark chocolate.

The scent has been described as: “Playful. Unpredictable. Spirited. There is a Princess in every girl.”

An eau de toilette is known for being a little softer in scent than an eau de parfum, which is more concentrated, but that doesn’t stop this fragrance from holding its own throughout the day.

It is the ideal scent to wear day and night, as well as all year round.

Simply spritz on your pressure points, such as your wrist and neck, and let it settled – do not rub together like so many of us have a tendency to do.

Numerous perfume experts have tutted when I’ve done so, as it squashes the notes together so you don’t smell the layers in the fragrance.

With a huge saving of almost £50 on a 100ml bottle is quite impressive, but if you need a little more tempting, there are glowing reviews to match.

One happy shopper gushed: “Beautifully scented perfume, everyone who gets a whiff of me tells me I smell so good and asks what am I wearing!”

Another praised: “Scent is really nice, it’s not overbearing or too powerful, but definitely a long lasting scent and the bottle design is beautiful.”

A separate shopper added: “I wasn’t that much into fragrances but after trying this out I have to say I LOVED it!

“It smells so good and I always get compliments when I wear it out – I recommend it to anyone looking for a new smell and not sure what to start with.”

It’s unknown how long this discount will last, so if it’s your signature scent, you will want to shop quickly to not miss out.

There are plenty of other bargains to shop ahead of Black Friday, whether you are shopping beauty and hunting for the best beauty Black Friday deals, or want to stay in the know about all the deals and sales to bookmark.
