Have you ever fallen in love with a scent, but it feels like it is so hard to find? That was the case for many of us with H&M’s amazing perfume line. Many of the scents are no longer around, but luckily we can still experience them with dupes.

The high street brand’s fragrance collection launched back in 2018, and while it’s not yet quite as well known as Zara’s fragrance range, it has some delicious scents.

Zara’s is widely known as having some of the best dupes on the market, and H&M’s is giving it a run for its money on that front too. While most people associate labels and high prices with quality, this doesn’t always have to be the case when it comes to fragrance. H&M sought the help of perfumers Olivier Pescheux and Nisrine Grillié from Givaudan, one of the world’s leading perfume houses, to create the affordable fragrances.

Olivier Pescheux has previously worked on scents for the likes of Dior and Montblanc, so it’s safe to say that quality isn’t an issue when it comes to H&M’s fragrance range.

“We focused a lot on high quality ingredients, from the single note fragrances to the contemporary blends and the more nuanced perfumes that really highlight the origin of the key ingredient. It has been an honour to collaborate with H&M and alongside my colleague Nisrine for this exciting fragrance collection,” Olivier Pescheux explained.

H&M’s collection revolves around a single note, such as vanilla, pear, and rose petals. You might recognize some of them as smelling just like designer fragrances. While we are still hoping for a restock, keep scrolling to see dupes of H&M bestseller scents.
