Tesco sells its own range of designer-style scents under the name Skin Saints, on tesco.com and in larger stores for a few pounds a bottle. Tesco does not print what each one is based on. Shoppers and reviewers do. Here is the popular list, matched to the designer each Skin Saints bottle is said to echo, with our stronger version beside it.
Skin Saints are eau de parfum built to a supermarket price, so they tend to sit close to the skin. Ours are 35% Extrait, the same designer character made to last 7+ hours. Sample a 5ml for £6.99, move up to a 50ml at £40, and if it fades early you have 60 days to send it back.
The sales leader on this list is Lost Cherry Nior, our take on Tom Ford Lost Cherry and the scent shoppers match to the Skin Saints Cerise. 35% Extrait, 7+ hours guaranteed, 60-day money-back. Try the 5ml for £6.99, or the 50ml at £40 (buy any 2, get 1 free).
What the Skin Saints range is
Skin Saints is Tesco's own eau de parfum line, sold on tesco.com. Tesco keeps the inspirations quiet, so every match below is shopper and reviewer consensus: the designer people most often name for each Skin Saints bottle. Our column is our own 35% Extrait composition on that same designer, not a copy of the Tesco bottle. We have only listed Skin Saints scents live on Tesco's own site that we make our own version of.
Tesco Skin Saints scents and the designer each is said to echo
| Skin Saints scent | Designer it is said to echo | Our 35% Extrait take |
|---|---|---|
| Cerise | Lost Cherry (Tom Ford) | Lost Cherry Nior |
| Miss Paris | Coco Mademoiselle (Chanel) | KOKO |
| Santal | Santal 33 (Le Labo) | Santal Thirty Three |
| Passion | Good Girl (Carolina Herrera) | Baddie |
| Wild | Sauvage (Dior) | Savage Essence |
| Flower Chain | Flowerbomb (Viktor & Rolf) | Flower Bomber |
Santal 33 reads as a clean, woody unisex scent, so Santal and our Santal Thirty Three suit men and women alike.
The number Tesco cannot print
This part is ours alone: what our own customers bought across these designers in the last 90 days. Lost Cherry Nior (our Lost Cherry) leads at 45 bottles, then KOKO (Coco Mademoiselle) 24, Santal Thirty Three (Santal 33) 23, Baddie (Good Girl) 19, Savage Essence (Sauvage) 18 and Flower Bomber (Flowerbomb) 2.
On ratings, Savage Essence is the best scored at 4.7 from 23 reviews, Santal Thirty Three sits at 4.6 from 5, and Lost Cherry Nior at 4.1 from 7. Real spend and real ratings, not a promise.
The most tried on the men's side is Savage Essence.
Savage Essence, our take on Sauvage by Dior. 35% Extrait, 7+ hours guaranteed, 60-day money-back. Try the 5ml for £6.99, or the 50ml at £40 (buy any 2, get 1 free).
Tesco Skin Saints vs Aromara, side by side

| Longevity | Usually close to the skin | 7+ hours, guaranteed |
