Alternatives to Buying Brand Name Perfumes

Here is a huge news flash: stop paying outrageous prices for those brand name perfumes! Sure they have celebrity faces endorsing them and a particular perfume bottle may catch your eye, but that does not mean they are always the best value or the best product for you or your budget. Perfumes and colognes come in imitation brands that may just surprise you with their great value and their incredible cornucopia of fragrances.

One of the alternatives to buying brand name perfumes is to go with the cheaper “knock off” version of the perfume. It will have a similar name and a similar scent. Many times you can find these perfumes for less than ten dollars at a clothing outlet store, such as Cato or Fashion Bug, that specialize in lower priced women’s clothing. The tip here is that the scents last just as long, if not longer than the brand name version and in some cases smell identical or even better than the celebrity endorsed version! It is an incredible bargain that cannot be beat and many feature an accompanying body lotion to match, just as the brand name versions do.

A second alternative is to go with an essential oil combination that fits your taste and lifestyle. After all, a perfume or eau de parfum is made up of essential oils and fragrances that are combined with alcohol to create the unique scent. You can make your own mix at many online stores or specialty shops. You can have your own line of fragrances that are specialized just for you. Try out different scents to create something that is totally your own style and do not be afraid to try different combinations. Just remember that essential oils are highly concentrated, so a little bit will go a long way. Use the perfume sparingly in order not to overpower everyone else in the room or to irritate your own senses and skin.

There are some tips for buying brand name perfumes if you absolutely cannot go with an imitation or essential oil combination. You can try buying perfumes and colognes online at www.perfumania.com. They offer substantial deals on name brand perfumes that will amaze you with their prices. The second tip is to buy gift sets when they go on sale around the holidays. You can get a perfume, body lotion and a bath gel for one low price. It may not be a huge bottle of perfume but it will come with a low price tag and that is a bottom line that counts.
