Boots shoppers snap up £54 'addictive' luxury perfume that's normally £108

Perfume is a fool-proof gift at Christmas, whether you're buying it for your mum, partner, sister or any teenagers in your family. A nice bottle will always go down a treat but a good fragrance that smells divine and lasts all day can be pricy.

Luckily, Boots has dropped the price of a 'heavenly' designer perfume ahead of December 25. Usually costing £108 for a 75ml bottle, YSL's Black Opium Illicit Green Eau de Parfum by a whopping 50% as part of the health and beauty retailer's Star Gift range.
