In the video, Shirley claimed the OXX Fragrance Spring Blush was just like Gucci’s Bloom perfume which costs up to $250.

‘I work there and honestly the Cloud is the best one, is it exactly like the Ariana Grande cloud and tbh it lasts long,’ they said.
‘The Cloud body mist from Kmart…$6 and smells EXACTLY like the Ariana Grande Cloud perfume!! It is amazing,’ another agreed.
‘The Cloud one lasted longer than the actual Ariana one but it smelt slightly off. It was alright though, pretty close,’ a third replied.
More took to the comments to share their own reviews of the $12 Kmart finds.
While one person said the Meadow scent doesn’t smell as much like Marc Jacobs as she would have thought many reported the Gucci Bloom dupe to be as good as the real thing.
Another shopper Tijana sampled each of the perfumes to see if they stacked up against the designer versions in a TikTok video.
She gave Royalty a six out of 10 saying she could only ‘kind of smell the similarity’ to Vera Wang’s Princess perfume but the scent had ‘soft tones’.
Tijana said Cloud smelled almost just like Ariana’s perfume and it was still sitting on her skin and hour later so she rated it an eight out of 10.
Kmart customer Tijana said the Spring Blush fragrance smelled just like Gucci Bloom and had a strong scent while Cloud lasted on her skin and was almost like Ariana Grande’s version
For Meadow, the Marc Jacobs dupe, she said it was ‘super strong’, ‘floraly’, ‘long lasting’ and ‘smells almost the same’.
She rated the Gucci copy the highest with a nine out of 10 saying: ‘Smells similar to it, strongest out of all. Very very floral’.
Tijana’s reviews prompted viewers to rush to Kmart to get their hands on one of the luxe fragrances.
‘Kmart really coming out with every dupe lol, I’m here for it,’ one woman said.
‘Yay, thank you for reviewing this, I was gonna head into a Kmart today also to see if there are testers,’ a second wrote.
