Most you’ve paid for parfum?

I’m in love with Dolce and Gabbana The Only One, but I’m not in love with price! On Amazon, I could get the 3 oz size for about $120 and that’s cheaper than any other place, so I’m on the fence. Of course, I don’t “need” it; it’s just a “want.” (Nobody actually needs parfum, right? Haha) What’s the most you’ve ever paid for parfum?

110.00 and it almost killed me, but I love Aerins Waterlily Sun, so I buy it myself for my birthday. I have wasted money on scent that I ended up not liking, but this one I use up.

it was a special edition.

$350.

it was a gift for my mom......she really wanted it so we got it for her as a gift.

If you love it and use it up....then it was a good purchase for you! I’ve never smelled it, but the lovely name makes it SOUND beautiful!

Hi Goldengate - SFnative here,

Fear not!!! I discovered "RueLaLa" about 3 months ago and just about 8 days ago they had a sale on Dolce and Gabbana Parfum!!! They are all about sales. I purchased a parfum I hadn't purchased in absolute ages, because the price was so right - Obsession in a huge bottle, that will last forever. (RueLaLa offers only items from high end designers/manufacturers - LOVE!)

I've been bad and have made maybe 6 additional purchases, not all of them expensive items (2 for the kitchen), but did order a German watch I've wanted for ages. Saw it in a watch store in that huge Italian casino in Vegas 8 years ago, tried it on and melted! It was gorgeous! Now, my husband has 4 very high end watches all gifted to him by me, but I've never had one. So...my eyes popped out of my head a week ago, when I saw this watch on sale on RueLaLa at 75% off. They had one left. Did I purchase it? You bet it did! LOL!

Check out RueLaLa! I just know that you'll eventually be able to find that parfum.

~Happy Shopping!

Back when "Opium" was first released, fell in love with it. Purchased the largest I could. Was over $150 at Nordstrom. Still love it.

@sfnative Interesting you should mention that site. I used to buy there several years ago....don’t really know why I stopped, but you inspired me to give it a try again. Thanks!

1/4 oz $200-$250. Usually, my husband gets me larger size. I’d have to go check the mls, but I think it runs double or tripe that. I have never bought the larger size for myself.
