      The price/performance curve seems to flatten out at around $100. Yes, there are niche formulations and exotic accords way above that price level, but you pretty much have to factor economies of scale into the price of something with intrinsically niche appeal. There are plenty of fragrances to be had for under $30 that will have you the best smelling guy in pretty much any room.

    Thanks for sharing your logical thoughts. Fragrances should be tagged with price point at which everyone can enjoy and also people can buy them again again rather purchasing them once (most people won’t go for buying 300/400 dollars fragrances again and again, that is almost impossible, unless they are millionaires and celebrities (although I hardly see even top business class people wearing Chanel or similar brands).

      If that’s the case for you I agree. I find that I reach for all sort of fragrances. I have 20 dollar scents from Cremo that do what other 120 designer and niche fragrances do. Most of the time more money is higher quality, but still I would rather enjoy 8 great scents than just one. With all that being said there are plenty excellent designer and cheap scents out there. I suggest you try to get your nose on more of them.

    The fragrance snobs will most always give argument on whats best, quality of materials yada yada. Personally, niche frags are a money grab, supported by the social media platforms that most assuredly have something to do with the escalated pricing
    Although I have quite a few “niche” frags, most of my compliments come from designers. In fact, I get more compliments from 25-50 dollar frags than my niche. Its a game, a game at which the Perfumers sit back and laugh at the lunacy by which people will shell out mega bucks for A frag that cost a mere bag of shells to produce
    The frag industry has done nothing in years other than produce clones, or scents the are very similar to others. Sadly, I dont see that changing
