Debenhams reduces 'fruity and floral' Jimmy Choo perfume to £27

Shoppers can enjoy an impressive discount on the perfume, which is now much cheaper than usual at Debenhams
Jimmy Choo fans can get their hands on a popular perfume at a fraction of its usual cost. The deal is available at Debenhams and could help fans of this designer brand save more than £30. The pink-bottled perfume offers a fruity and floral scent, blending popular aromas like red berries, sweet pea and white musk.
It is described online as being a "bright and sparkling" fragrance and has been well-loved since it was first released in 2015. Debenhams has a 20% discount on the small 40ml bottle (now £34.40) and large 100ml bottle (now £60.80).
But the best deal comes from the medium option. The 60ml version of the popular perfume is better than half price, marked down from its usual £58 price tag to £27.
Those in the market for a new bottle of perfume can take advantage of many different offers. Boots is selling Marc Jacobs Dot (50ml) for £37, down from its usual £74.
Superdrug shoppers could order one of the biggest discounts on the website with Calvin Klein Euphoria Eau de Parfum. It usually sells for £87 (100ml) but is massively discounted down to £28.90.
But Debenhams is the current go-to for Jimmy Choo fans on the hunt for a bargain. The under £30 deal on Blossom has received plenty of praise from shoppers.
Reviewing the perfume, one customer wrote: "I really like the scent and have gotten plenty of compliments when I wear it. I buy it when it is on offer."
But, over on Amazon, a few negative reviews claimed that their perfumes smelled "a bit underwhelming for a luxe product". One added: "It is very weak, and barely lasts longer than a couple of hours"
Others love the perfume, however. Someone else said: "I use this perfume for work and have had many people commenting on how nice it smells and asking what it is."
At Debenhams, shoppers were just as positive. Another added: "Been given as a gift to me more than a year ago and have been using this perfume since then. A definite keeper!" A third wrote: "Smells very nice, not overpowering".

Amazon, Walmart, JPMorgan explore stablecoins as GENIUS advances

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready... It's yet again another big week for stablecoins. On June 17, the United States Senate passed the GENIUS Act (Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins) by a 68–30 vote. The GENIUS Act is a proposed bill that, if passed, will establish America's first federal framework for stablecoins. A few of its key provisions: all stablecoins must be backed 1:1 by cash or short-term Treasuries, issuers must disclose reserves and undergo audits, and there will be a licensing regime for both large and small stablecoin issuers. The bill also makes it difficult for Big Tech companies to issue a stablecoin without unanimous approval from the Treasury, Fed, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). The proposed bill also outlines anti-money laundering (AML) and consumer protection requirements. In totality, the GENIUS Act is the government's attempt to regulate stablecoins for the first time. The next step is for the bill to head to the House, where it's expected to pass without resistance. After that, it will land on President Donald Trump's desk, and based on his own social media post, he seems eager to sign it. Source: Truth Social | @realDonaldTrump But even though the bill has a few stops left on its journey before becoming law, companies are wasting no time getting their stablecoin initiatives in motion. Amazon, Walmart, and JPMorgan position themselves for a stablecoin future Even before the GENIUS Act advanced this far, banks and financial institutions began laying the groundwork for stablecoin products, betting on the legislation's eventual passage. Now, we're starting to see retail giants like Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) and Walmart (NASDAQ: WMT) inch into the stablecoin world as well. Recently, rumors surfaced that Amazon and Walmart are exploring the idea of internal-use stablecoins. Shortly afterward, JPMorgan (NASDAQ: JPM) filed a trademark for a blockchain-based product called JPMD, which many speculate stands for 'JPMorgan Dollar,' and believe will be a stablecoin, even though JPMorgan's filing did not explicitly use the word 'stablecoin.' These corporates saw the early movers in crypto, especially those who launched stablecoins like Circle, generate a significant amount of revenue from their stablecoin offering, so they are now positioning themselves to do the same. With the GENIUS Act on track to pass, their plans to do this have accelerated. The commercial use-case for stablecoins At the moment, Amazon and Walmart's stablecoin plans seem to be focused on internal use; they are closed-loop tokens used within their walled gardens and suppliers' networks. This isn't exactly a new concept; it resembles what Circle, the issuer of USDC, has already started doing through its Circle Payment Network. The benefit of doing this is that instead of relying on credit card networks, which charge 2–3% per transaction, or bank transfers, which can take several days, a stablecoin-based system allows retailers to settle transactions instantly and at significantly lower costs. Amazon and Walmart's interest tracks with a broader trend in corporate America: the ongoing push to cut costs and run lean. Stablecoins offer a way to reduce the cost of payment settlement, improve efficiency, and potentially unlock new streams of revenue for their issuers. That revenue doesn't just come from cost savings either. Stablecoin issuers, under the GENIUS Act, must back tokens 1:1 with cash or equivalents. The issuers typically opt for short-term Treasuries (T-bills) as their cash equivalents, which means the issuers earn the yield on those T-bills, which is around 4% in today's economic environment. If you're managing billions in reserves, that passive yield being raked in from stablecoins becomes significant. The biggest obstacle for corporate stablecoins But these newfound commercial stablecoin strategies don't come without obstacles. For an internal stablecoin to work, the people and companies you do business with also need to be part of your stablecoin network. Let's say Amazon starts paying vendors using its stablecoin. Vendors will benefit from faster transaction settlement, but they will want a way to convert those tokens into fiat that can be redirected to their other business operations. If every major company starts issuing its own proprietary stablecoin, we'll end up with a fragmented ecosystem where every issuer will need to devise a way for their network partners to exchange their stablecoins for cash. It's unclear whether retailers will build their offramps or take advantage of existing, highly liquid infrastructure like Circle's payment network. But any supplier, vendor, or partner doing business in stablecoins will want a fast and frictionless way to convert their stablecoins to cash. Could stablecoins replace global payments We are in an era where, each day, stablecoins are becoming more embedded into the fabric of the global financial system. In today's high-interest environment, where rates are significantly higher than they were five years ago during the zero-interest rate policy era, every company is under pressure to cut costs and improve operational efficiency. Stablecoins are emerging as a solution for this when it comes to payments and settlements. But it is not all smooth sailing for stablecoin issuers. Stablecoins only work at scale if the entities a company transacts with also accept them and, even more importantly, have a way to exit those positions. Companies are beginning to roll out stablecoins and launch payment networks, but so far, we've heard much more about announcements than the outcomes of these systems. Who's actually settling transactions in stablecoins? What's the user experience like? We don't really have answers to those questions at this point in time. There will be even bigger hurdles if companies want to make their stablecoins consumer-facing. At that point, they have to convince everyday users to go out of their way to obtain a stablecoin and then use it instead of just pulling out a credit card or paying with cash. That adds a layer of friction to the payment process that might not be worth the hassle for most consumers. There isn't enough real-world data to conclude how all of this will play out. But in theory, stablecoins could become a central part of, or even a replacement for, a major piece of the traditional financial infrastructure: domestic and international payments. However, one thing is certain: As legislation like the GENIUS Act advances and rumors about household-name corporations experimenting with stablecoins spread, incumbents like Circle reap the rewards. On June 17, after news broke that the GENIUS Act had cleared the Senate, shares of CRCL jumped from $149.15 to $199.59, a 38% spike powered by one strong headline about stablecoins.
