Shoppers who like a whiff of the sort of aromas usually associated with high-end brands, rejoice. Bargain lovers are finding themselves drawn to Lidl’s selection of candles and diffusers.
And they are being likened to offerings from the opulent lifestyle brand Rituals. And using the Lidl Plus App means you can get hold of these items at an even lower cost.
Lidl’s Ceremony of Scent collection tempts with three fragrances; Green Garden, Dark Oud, and Rich Amber, each encased in packaging that doubles as a present. Patrons have the choice of either the Deluxe Ceremony of Scent Candle or the Deluxe Ceremony of Scent Diffuser, priced at £3.99.
By downloading the Lidl Plus app and visiting the store before February 12, a 15% discount awaits on all candles and diffusers from the Deluxe range, bringing the cost down to just £3.39. By comparison, the price tag for a candle from Rituals sits at £24.90, though it is of a bigger size at 290g compared to Lidl’s 200g alternative.
The mini diffuser sticks from Rituals are normally priced at £18.90. They currently have a discounted rate of £14.50.
Their mini version holds 70ml, slightly less generous than Lidl’s 100ml equivalent, reports Bristol Live. On social media, customers are noting the similarity between Lidl’s versions and the luxurious Rituals scents. One user said: “I bought the green one and it’s exactly the same scent as the rituals green one” – a nod to Rituals’ The Ritual of Jing range.
For those curious, the Green Garden melody consists of freesia, sandalwood, and dry amber notes. Another shopper said: “I’m running to Lidl right now!”
Yet another social media post showcased the diffusers, along with the caption: “It’s giving high end diffuser vibes”. The items are available in Lidl’s popular middle aisle, but customers are advised to act quickly as the offer is only valid while stocks last.
