I feel that sometimes when we pay alot of money for some perfumes they do not smell as nice as they should do and that there are cheaper perfumes that we can buy that smell alot better.I have noticed that the cheaper perfumes last alot longer, as in the smell stays on you,where as there are ones that are dearer that do not stay on you.

Hi Joystick!. I think its because it we say quality not always come with expensive price. Its depend where you buy it. I think expensive brand not always come with quality but its comes with prestige. So every buying is always decision to buy good quality stuff with the best value. I think its not only working with perfume but I can work for cloth, shoes and organic vegetable. you can good quality stuff if you know where to buy it.

I think that we tend to pay for the name of things as it is abit of a trend.I have had loads of dear perfumes over the years that people have gave me as a gift and some were nice, but some were really horrid.I am not picky, so i do not go by name.Avon stuff is great as it smells great all day, hardly wears off.

Personally, I find that while there are some good colognes for a small price, generally speaking the cheap stuff tends to be overpowering. And if you can still smell it yourself after several hours, that's a good sign you're wearing too much. Cologne and perfume are meant to be subtle enhancements not a punch in the face to everyone within a 3 metre radius of you. Your cologne should only be noticed by the person who gets up close to you. Just my opinion xoxo Cyne

I have got loads og cheap ones as well as a few dearer ones and i will say that i like the cheaper ones as they tend to stay smelling nice all day as well as all night.I have had lots of people in the past wanting to know what perfume i am wearing and they all now wear the cheap one that i have just got, so it must smell ok for them to wear it as well as me.

I still go for the sweet scent ones that are not that expensive. the purpose of a perfume is to make you more confident, feel fresh, and will really create a good mood from you.

I think that there are some really great cheap perfumes that you can get, they seem to smell great all day and not wear off at all.I use to like some of the Avon things that they sold, but i have not seen Avon books about for a while.

Hi Joystick I agree with you that some time, branded and expensive perfumes dont give good fragrance, but there are some companies which are really very good, for me, I like Boss and I like its fragrance. There are some local companies which give the same local made perfume in cheaper price but those are not lasting for one or two hours thats why I prefer to take it from a good and reputed sellers, otherwise there are lots of sellers but most of them are not selling the actual brand, only few of them are good...:) Have a nice day...:)

Some of the expensive ones smell horrid.I love the cheap ones as you get more for your money, as well as there are the ones where the smell lingers on for ages.I got some really cheap perfume the other day from a cheap shop and that is great, so i am going back there to get some more.
