LookFantastic customers are taking advantage of a deal on a timeless perfume that has been reduced by 50%. The 50ml Estée Lauder Modern Muse Eau De Parfum Spray, normally priced at £85, is now available for £42.50 for a limited time.

Although it has only received 10 reviews on LookFantastic, it boasts an average rating of 4.6 out of 5 from over 1200 reviews on Boots, where it remains full price. One reviewer raved: “This perfume has been my favourite for a number of years. People always comment on how lovely it is.”
Another customer wrote: “This made me feel very sexy and powerful. My man couldn’t keep his hands of me. (Which I’m not complaining about.) This is the best perfume I’ve ever tried I would 100% recommend modern muse to all women and to men who haven’t found that perfect gift for his partner. This is the one to buy,” reports Wales Online.
One satisfied customer exclaimed: “I LOVE this perfume! It smells so elegant! It is my signature scent. I have been using it for at least 3 years now and it is a classic in my collection.”
Another fan shared their love for the fragrance, saying: “I have been using Modern Muse since I can remember. It is fresh and clean smelling. I always get complimented when I am wearing Modern Muse! “.
However, not all reviews were glowing. One person expressed disappointment in the scent’s staying power: “I too love the Modern Muse fragrance but am also sad that it does not last. If Estée Lauder could make this a longer lasting fragrance it would be greatly appreciated and improved.”
Meanwhile, another added a different perspective: “I love trying out new perfumes and was excited to try this. Unfortunately I just didn’t like the smell. It is a bit on the strong side for me. That said, I let my sister try it and she really liked it. So I would say it is definitely suited to some people. I really liked the little bottle and the packaging.”
The Estee Lauder Modern Muse Eau De Parfum is a more budget-friendly alternative to J’adore Dior, which costs £108 for the same size. Bargain hunters can also find deals on other fragrances such as YSL Black Opium Illicit Green Eau de Parfum for half price at £54 at Boots, or the ever-popular Marc Jacobs Daisy, now reduced to £42.50 at Debenhams.
