Thanks for the price comparison. Bit of a difference…More witchery, I see! But thanks and well done. Is it just that page of beauty?
I don’t know what the massager things are meant to be copies of unless they are what Marina posted the video of, and I don’t want to start a new obsession by reading up about such things! So I’ve just listed the Elemis dupes. To be honest, I don’t know much about Elemis either so I hope I have matched the items correctly?

I haven’t been back since last Thursday. I was curious about those La Mer and La Prairie things but wasn’t really bothered about buying them, except as a gift perhaps. If I had been going back to Aldi anyway, I would have had another look but I didn’t think they would come in to be honest. Do we know anyone who actually found them? I have seen press articles describing them but nobody talking about having got them this time round.Hi did anyone manage to get any of the creams which should have arrived a week ago?

You were after the perfumes, weren’t you, Marina? Sorry if you were too late.There wasn't any in my store and all perfumes sold out by Sunday.
It's okay Andi, I found the "testers" in the shop and thought they were not very me.I haven’t been back since last Thursday.

You were after the perfumes, weren’t you, Marina? Sorry if you were too late.
Aw, that’s nice of you - I feel very appreciated! You do a lot of research yourself which is also appreciated.Andi, I don't know how you do this so quickly and the list is massive! This is a lot of work, thank you.
Indeed! Thanks AndiAndi, I don't know how you do this so quickly and the list is massive! This is a lot of work, thank you.
I put the wrong price for the mini perfumes earlier - they are of course £2.99 (excuse: tired).Ladies’ mini eau de parfum 25ml £2.99
- Cardinal Red = Francis Kurkdijan Baccarat Rouge 540 35ml £155
- Prism = Prada Paradox 30ml £69
- Empress = Paco Rabanne Olympéa 30ml £58
I'm not sure about the perfumes this time, I think I might. I would also like to recomment the Cardinal Red and the Prism (I haven't tried the others).Aw, that’s nice of you - I feel very appreciated! You do a lot of research yourself which is also appreciated.
Once I start, I get very involved, like I’m on a serious mission! I doubt it’s good for me but I confess I did do some of the above in the early hours as I couldn't sleep, then a neighbour starred sawing trees down at 7am (when I’m not usually awake) so I carried on. It helped that we had already had some of the items as they were Specialbuys earlier this year. The ones I spent longest trying to match were the luminous body wash & lotion (Nuxe) - there’s very little about those elsewhere online, unless I missed it. I am also not 100% sure about the men’s fragrances.
Are you going to be after the perfumes again this time?
Yes, ouch, £9.99. I would like to try these but the price is a bit steep for Aldi, especially when you get more than one, and there are so many temptations apart from perfumes. I would much rather they offered a small size at around £2.99.I put the wrong price for the mini perfumes earlier - they are of course £2.99 (excuse: tired).
Speaking of the perfumes, I am a bit surprised to see the women’s 100ml ones this time are £9.99 (men’s £6.99). I don’t think I’ve seen them over £6.99 before?
You do put an awful lot of effort into this so thank you. Unfortunately I can't find any of the cream special buys and have been told by Adli staff they have no idea when the stock for any of the creams and perfumes will be in!

All these perfumes (I think) were in the video I posted about a week ago.
I'm surprised that Aldi didn't announce the launch of the Marine range in an article, like they do.
Agree about the perfume price. £9.99 is still a good price if you are pretty sure you’ll like it but still, it’s a 43% increase which is a bit worrying for future Specialbuys. I also feel the face creams and potions are starting to creep up in price. I haven’t been buying from Aldi for long but had the impression they were usually under a fiver, then £5.99 and now we have some of the Elemis, La Mer & La Prairie dupes at £6.99, £8.49, etc. If they are as good as they sound, though, it’s still a bargain. I suppose price increases are to be expected, like everything now, and they are obviously selling really well, but I hope it’s not just because they are copies of ultra-expensive items.Yes, ouch, £9.99.
