Chanel Coco Mademoiselle Vs Lidl's Suddenly Madame Glamour

I am SUPER excited to blog about this and share with you my lucky find of the year!! Yep I can still say this is the best find of the year...just. I can't take full credit for this find and have to thank my very close friend Jenny who actually text me yesterday telling me about a perfume she bought in Lidl. Now, I bet you're all turning your noses up and thinking LIDL?? Seriously if you're a fan of the very chic Chanel Coco Mademoiselle then you need to find your local Lidl and snap up a bottle or two!

Ninety percent of woman in a test showed they favoured Suddenly Madame Glamour over Chanels Coco mademoiselle. I'm sure like most of you ladies will already know what Chanel's Coco Madamemoiselle smells like, if not then you need to take a swift visit to your local department store or Boots and have a quick whiff. Then you'll know how good this perfume really is!

I know the bottle does not carry the same sophistcation as does the very chic and stylish Chanel perfume bottles BUT I can live with that seeings this is 15 times CHEAPER than the ever popular Coco Mademoiselle.

This is an EDP which makes this find even more appealing, I raced down to my local Lidl and walked the isles till I eventually found the health & toiletry section. I gave a quick scan of the shelves hoping to find the perfume but sadly could not on first glances. I must admit I did start to feel a little gutted until I walked back and glanced up and there it was in all its glory...well as much glory as it could muster sat high up on a shelf above shaving foam lol! A little different from the high end glamour of department stores, but fear not I can assure you Suddenly Madame Glamour will get the same about of love and appreciation as would if I owned Chanel Coco Mademoiselle.

OK so you're probably wondering what the notes are in this?? Well after much research on the net the only info I could find was a quote by John Bailey founder of the perfumers guild, 'fresh Citrus and floral notes merging to an alluring, exotic oriental accord'.

If only I knew about the perfume before Christmas, this would've made great stocking fillers! However there's always 2012, this would make great birthday presents and Mother's Day gifts. I know my mum would be made up to recieve this and a nice bouquet of flowers.

I would love to know if any of you pick this up and if so please comment here or tweet me @sherrie821 and let me know what you think.

So will YOU be running to Lidl anytime soon?

  3. Wow
    I'll definitely be buying this to try it out, although I do love the satisfaction I get from buying my Chanel one so will probably continue to buy it, but use it less often if this is similar!
