Perfumes........(prices)

**Husky_mom** · 04-25-2007, 01:46 PM

I´m inquring about perfume prices as my brother is going across the pond and I´ve heard they are less expensive there....... even in the USA they are half of what they cost here...... so any pointers would be great so I can know how much money to give him

preferably about some Cartier, esp Santos (men)(I loooove how it smells hehe)

and some Chanel´s.(women)...... there was this one that smelled very good but can´t remember the name......LOL

When you say "across the pond", where is your brother going?

**Husky_mom** · 04-25-2007, 02:13 PM

he is going in a school trip to Europe, he´s gping to Rome, Florence, Venice (sp?), Verna, Paris, Versalles.....and some Lucerna ,Luganda can´t remember those two last LOL.......

My absolute favorite is Allure by Chanel, it has to be the eu de parfum, I just bought a bottle, it was I believe 108.00 for 3.4 ounces. I don't think its much cheaper in Europe, I had my hubby check once when he was there.

even more than that it would cost here a Eau de TOILETTE!!!......

Oh how lovely! That sounds a wonderful trip.

This is a link to a world Duty Free site. Click on the Frangrance Search tab, then you can search on brand, what country you are buying in etc. It might give you a guide to how much he would have to pay.

Duty Free

EDITED Having looked at that link further, it seems to only give UK duty free prices which may not be of much use to you. On the other hand, I think prices may be pretty standard across much of the European Union now, so it may give you a rough guide.

Oh there is this kind by chanel that I LOVE IT. its coco mademiosel (spelling) it smells so good. My sister and mom wear it. I would say its about 60 to 70 dollars around here for a bottle, Not a huge bottle but not a tiny bottle either.

Isabel...give me a list of exactly what you are looking for so I can get an accurate price list for you. They are quite cheap here. I can even get names of some places he can get them cheap.

for men it would be Santos by Cartier..... also Armani code

women...... not sure if Chance by Chanel......or the Madmoisele one

either one I guess........ I also looooove the Ralph Lauren in the blue box I think it´s just called Ralph..... and Gio from Armani.....

**kittycats_delight** · 04-26-2007, 03:03 PM

Ok I will check on those tomorrow or saturday. Not sure if the profumeria is open saturday or not though so most likely tomorrow and get some prices for you.

**Randi** · 04-26-2007, 03:20 PM

KK, thanks for posting that link, there are quite a few to choose from.

However, not the one I used to like called Halston, but there are a few others I really like.

**kittycats_delight** · 04-30-2007, 12:06 PM

Hi Isabel, I got those prices for you. Some are expensive others are pretty reasonable. I could not find Madmoiselle by Chanel sorry.

So here is the list. I will list prices in Euro and Mexican Pesos and also where you can get them.

Code by Armani 2.5 oz - €72 in MXN 1074.47
Chance by Chanel 6.8 oz - €33 in MXN 492.52

The above 3 can be bought at Profumerie Douglas in Rome. The address is Via Collatina
C.Comm.le Auchan( this is a mall called Auchan)

Ralph by Ralph Lauren 1 oz - €30 in MXN 447.94
Gio by Armani 6.7 oz - €25 in MXN 358.40

The 2 above can be bought at Acqua e Sapone in Venice. The address is

It's not a problem at all. I was at acqua e sapone saturday to get things for myself so had a look and today I was at the Profumerie Douglas and got the prices there. I had to get some things in the mall where it is. So all I really did was find the stores in the cities where your brother was going to be. So it was no trouble. I have to go into the center tomorrow and there is a profumeria on the way so I will drop in there to see if I can find madmoiselle.

I am glad I could help you. So are the prices better here?
