Hold onto your beauty hats because Kmart has a Gucci Bloom perfume dupe that’s going to satisfy your nose and wallet.
Kmart has always been a favourite of ours for scoring a bargain (remember the $20 Kmart straightener?) but never have we thought of it as a place to shop fragrance… until now.
Kmart’s Gucci Bloom dupe
Lovers of tuberose and jasmine will be well acquainted with the light and lingering scent of Gucci Bloom ($250 for 100ml at Myer). Who doesn’t want to smell like a thriving garden of flowers?
The $12 Kmart version ‘Spring Blush’ emulates it right down to the pastel pink bottle and black-bordered bottle.
But we know what you’re wondering, does it smell as similar as it looks? According to TikToker tijanarobinson7, it’s pretty good. She scored it 9/10 for similarity after heading in store for a whiff. We know where we’re headed on our lunch break…
Once you’ve made your Kmart pitstop and can smell the lingering dupe scent on your skin but you’re feeling it just isn’t enough (budget-conscious) Gucci Bloom in your life. How about branching out what vessel your scents come from? The Glasshouse ‘A Tango In Barcelona’ candle has fragrance notes that perfectly match the enviable scent. Double whammy for less than the original scent, a yes in our books!
More Kmart’s perfume dupes
A Gucci Bloom dupe is just the beginning. There’s a whole lineup of perfumes available at Kmart for just $12 and we couldn’t help but notice a few other familiar bottles… it’s a good thing imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
In The Clouds
Dupe for: Ariana Grande Cloud Eau de Parfum ($49.99 at Chemist Warehouse)
Meadow
Dupe for: Marc Jacobs Daisy Eau de Toilette ($79.99 at Chemist Warehouse)
Royalty
Dupe for: Vera Wang Princess Eau de Toilette ($39.99 at Chemist Warehouse)
If you’re a dupe hunter who wants to put them to the test, you can even get your hands on a discovery set which allows you to try four of them for just $12.
Of course, there’s a reason the best perfumes have such stellar reputations, and price will always reflect quality. But for $12, we’re all for having some fun!
Would you try the Kmart Gucci Bloom dupe? Or any of the others?
I hope Kmart have perfume tester bottles so I can try them out myself. I just hope they aren’t Made in China like their skincare range.
I opened the link for Spring Blush, above, & looked at the large image of the back of the box – yes, it’s made in China.
For $12 I would have expected nothing less.
I find on the whole dupes may small nice but just don’t last so a waste of time -Test them on yourself and walk around the shop for 10 minutes and if they are a dupe the scent is usually hard to smell even in that short time.
I used to buy various cheap dupes: cheap in quality & price. I now prefer to buy the real deal when it’s on sale.
I do like Kmart, but I’m not sure about the fragrance dupes.
I would want to smell them first but I’d most likely stick to the real thing.
Yeah, I’m the same. I hate really tacky scents
I would try them but wouldn’t be surprised if their are none left on the shelf. I think the dupe of Cloud is funny because that is supposed to be a dupe for Baccarat Rouge, so a dupe of a dupe!
They do look a bit cheap too
Mmm, not for me. Rather lash out and buy the real deal, when on sale
Same.
yes i agree
So much more affordable. I did buy a Kmart candle as it was a dupe for a Glasshouse fragrance. It is strong and long lasting but it’s not my favourite.
No. Prefer original perfumes.
It looks look very similar, must to the sniff test to see if it passes muster.
I’d prefer to purchase the original scents. It would be great if they came in smaller bottle sizes.
Yes I would prefer a small bottle of the original.
would like to smell the scents
Great if you want a budget buy
Ill have to try these out.
Didn’t know where to look in Kmart for Perfume Section will need to try there Dupes.
I wish they had testers!
Yes that would be nice. Try before you buy?
Got it. Smells exactly like it
Only lasts an hour . Lame
shame but you do get what you pay for most of the time
I don’t think so because I’m not a big perfume buyer.
I will be going to Kmart to have a look at the Gucci Bloom dupe. Will be interesting to see if the fragrance last all day, as I have found cheaper versions of perfumes don’t last more than an hour after spraying.
I had no idea Kmart was selling perfumes (dupes or not)
Wow, must be some catch
The biggest problem with cheap perfume is that the smell just doesn’t last. So I’d be a bit wary of these.
yes that is what I have found so really although cheap they are a waste of money
I would definitely try this one.
I love the real deal, something about a special perfume, and I recently read a book about “In search of perfumes” by Dominique Roques and a lot goes into sourcing the right scents and supporting business to create those scents. So I am going to stick with my favourite perfume, and enjoy it.
I tried a couple of K Mart’s testers but the scent did not last but haven’t tried these ones
and they’re made in China. I checked them out.
hmm will check it out! but i think with perfume it’s always better to go with the real deal
The kmart packaging looks much too similar to gucci.
Need to go and try meadow!
There some dupes that can be great, but not all of them
Oo definitely keen to try the gucci lookalike perfume. I wonder if they last long on the skin
I’d prefer to buy the real thing!
I just bought Gucci Flora Gorgeous Magnolia and love the scent. Not sure I would buy the Dupe version if it only last for an hour.
Oh I have not smelt the original
I bought the ‘in the clouds’ perfume and it’s supposed to also be a dupe for the Baccarat rouge perfume! It smells so good
