Choosing the Right Discount Perfume

by RichlyScented on November 16, 2008

There are tons of retailers on the Internet that sell discount perfumes from their online web site. By buying discount perfume you can get some wonderful fragrances for a fraction of the recommended retail price, especially if you purchase them at the end of the summer or winter season with the intention of wearing them next year.


It is a difficult decision choosing a perfume that you have never used before. If you purchase a discount perfume that doesn’t suit you then you will obviously have wasted your money.

Your best option is stick with buying those discount perfumes online that you have used before. In this way you you will have the benefit of knowing the fragrance suits you before obtaining it. If you are buying the discount designer perfume as a gift then obviously it will be a good idea to purchase something you know the recipient will wear. Therefore, when you decide to purchase a fragrance for your mother and you know she is a fan of Chanel No. 5 then by all means go ahead a buy that rather get something that will be new.

If you want to make sure the discount perfume suits your body chemistry then you should take a look at the fragrance notes. First off you will want to determine what the fragrance notes of your favorite perfumes are in oder to determine what you like the best. For example, some people suit fruity fragrance notes while others smell great when they wear spicy Orientals.

Typically you will want to find a discount perfume that has some of your favorite fragrance notes. It will also be helpful if you have an idea of the fragrance notes that do not smell nice on you and avoid any discount perfumes that contain them. For example, if by trail and error you’ve discovered that you don’t suit the fragrance note geranium then you should avoid women’s perfume like Cinnabar or Aliage by Estee Lauder.

When you are buying discount perfume online, the last thing you should do is buy the latest trendy fragrance simply because it is popular.


You should not order a discount perfume just because everyone else is wearing that fragrance as it might not work as well with your body chemistry.

Each person’s body chemistry is different and everyone has a different personality which you have to recognize to determine what smells you like the best. As long as the discount perfume suits your body chemistry and you like the fragrance then you should feel comfortable purchasing it. Of course if you want to test out the latest new fragrance then the obvious thing is to go to your local department store to try out out instead of first spending your money online.
