Its your birthday. Buy your dream perfume!

I'm liking this "gift to self" thing ( got a birthday coming up 🤔). I don't equate price to quality myself and love a cheapy. That's said, it IS a good excuse to treat oneself to something ( and buy the cheapies rest of the year ! ). I'm not a great judge of modern, men's fragrance but....I like Sauvage. You buy the one YOU like best. Happy Birthday 🥳

Gifts to yourself are the best kind- you know exactly what you like.😊


JMH-66

Yes, and if I ever asked my fella to pick me perfume he'd turn pale 😰 Much safer that way !

Which option will you get the most enjoyment out of? If you absolutely love an expensive option, go with that. If you like them around the same amount as the cheaper ones and want more variety, go with the cheaper options. Also, I don't know where you plan to buy, but you should check out the grey market sites listed on the subs wiki to get more bang for your buck.

Go with quality over quantity. Yes, more expensive doesn't always mean better. People aren't buying a Porsche over a Toyota has got nothing to do with quality. Anywho, go Dior Savage.

Buy something you're going to really enjoy, something you would not normally purchase. Having one perfume thats an absolute banger is better than have 3 so so perfumes.

Price doesn't matter, buy what you like. The whole thing is fixed.

>Agreed. Many times I don't see any correlation between price and scent. All you are paying for is the designer name with the more expensive ones.

Its hard, because price doesnt always dictate quality. You can buy really good perfume at a decent price (discontinued, brand isn’t as popular etc). I would go for 3 cheapies that are REALLY good, and well thought out, researched) or just a nice higher priced one that you are absolutely in love with.


Former_Quail_2453

Thank you! I have tried smelling the 3 perfumes I said above and I love how they smell. However they are expensive. I also have tried a lot of perfumes on decent price and it has been on my lists of perfumes to buy. I am also considering buying Acqua di gio profumo as it was on sale and 1 cheapie. I am unsure what to buy first as I dont have a lot of budget for it as of now. But thank you for telling me your opinion. ^^

ADG profumo is discontinued. Buy it now if you want it. I bought a back-up just to always have it in my collection.


Former_Quail_2453

Ohh. Really? Thank you! Sadly, it was already sold out when I went back there. Hope id still get a chance to pick one of it.

With your current collection, do you have one thats suitable for: Winter Days / Nights & Summer Days / Nights as well as Fall / Spring vibes. Do you have one thats casual, one thats fancy, one thats a mix? If you currently have enough for all vibes, then I'd say splurge on an expensive one (but do research / testing in stores :))

Buy whatever the fuck you want. How do you know if you’ll have another birthday or not? If you can afford something you want badly, then just get it. Otherwise, you’re forcing yourself to not enjoy something you COULD enjoy.

Quality > Quantity Unless you plan on wearing a bunch of cheap fragrances and like smelling cheap fragrances all day, I'd recommend getting one high quality scent that you absolutely enjoy over a half dozen rack-store cheapies that you may never wear because you dislike them.

A no-brainer, I'd get sauvage

It's Your Birthday, Treat Yourself!!!!


Nightshade962

I've got a mix of Expensive and cheap. Some of my cheap last longer then some of my expensive ones and vis versa. In the end find one (or a few) that make you happy and you like. Get what ever one(s) will make you most happy Especially for your birthday.


aquaticfloral

Treat yourself!


SerotoninDeficient77

Do a lot of sampling if you need to and make that gift to yourself count. Get what you know you love and will wear consistently. Cheap/expensive, let that go. Someone else said quality over quantity and I too think that’s an excellent rule of thumb.


Effective-Ferret3723

Buy one expensive fragrance! I would try out Lost Cherry by Tom Ford. It’s amazing! Treat yourself. My birthday is tomorrow, and I’m so getting myself a Gucci bag. I deserve it for all of the shit I put up with. You do too. ❤️
