unused perfumes

[sami8888]

HI Everyone,
what are you all doing with unused perfumes and partially used perfumes, i have quite a few and am curious to know what everyone does with all the extras. I spend a small fortune when i started counting how much i spent on fragrance in the last year

I’ve never, ever had any unused perfumes. I just use them all as to me they’re an expensive luxury. I guess you could use them as a room spray if you’re not going to wear them anymore.

Charity shop them ?

Sell them on eBay- lots of people will buy them

Sell them on Vinted or EBay - no problem!

Women's aid might like them, along with any unopened other toiletries.

Vinted

Do you want to get rid of them?

You can’t sell part used perfumes on vinted but maybe eBay?

If you have any that are now discontinued, eBay is the place where collectors go. You can get very good prices. Check out 'sold items'.

Perfume lasts an extremely long time if it’s kept out of sunlight in the boxes I wouldn’t sell it if you like it just use them up before purchasing more . I’ve got some that’s been brought as gifts still unopened from three years ago. I’m not selling them they’re ones I love . If Your not keen on them then sell them.

I just rotate all of mine , have you gone off them? Tell us what they are and we might buy them from you! 😀

I use all of my perfumes. Do you not like them anymore?

I sold an unopened one on Ebay a few years ago. I priced it keenly and it sold by the end of the 7 days. Mostly I keep them and work my way through them slowly. It's a false economy to get rid of them all then buy a load of new ones because you don't have any and need some.

I wouldn't have thought anyone would want used ones though.

I've bought part used opened perfumes on Ebay and sold them.

I generally use mine up but I did accumulate a few bottles a while back that were part used and I sold them on eBay

I keep mine I've never had any go out of date, try hard not to buy new ones but a couple of new bottles do sneak in.
Usually when I haven't used a scent for a while, I'll randomly start to use it again until it runs out. I used to go through so much perfume but I don't really wear it anymore since WFH.

Store them out of light. Save them, trust me. So many are changing the Formulas all the time so any earlier editions will sell for a lot more in the future. My beloved Elie Saab le perfum has changed I'm 100% sure since 2013. And I'm convinced Libre intense isn't as good as last year's!

I'm another who never has any unused or partially used perfumes. I only buy ones I like and obviously because I like them, I wear them.

I also don't spend a fortune every year, when a bottle runs out I will buy another. In 2023 I think I spent around £60 on a new bottle of L'eau D'issey by Issey Miake. That'll last me a while, I wear cheap ass Next perfume for work.

i've sold mine on ebay. People will buy them as it's cheaper buying at the shop. especially if it's ones which you can no longer buy.

For the truly crap ones - I tend to use them as any other 'room-perfuming' product - albeit in modicum and at a distance. the half decent ones can be used in a bath or as a 'spillage' to be cleaned on a hard floor.

I take pleasure in my various decent perfumes - moreso when I'm dressed for dirty work, looking unkempt and invisible, so at least I can wear some Dior; though I'd really rather have some No.5.

I just use my perfumes. If you don’t want some you can sell on eBay.

I have been known to sell them on ebay

Funnily enough I just sold a 10ml spray from maison margiela replica today with 2/3 gone foe a tenner. It wasn't the scent for me so hopefully someone else can enjoy a bargain

@IDontHateRainbows oooh I love their range. Which one didn't you like? I love tg all apart from Jazz Club. Smells like a sweaty man at the end of a night on the lash.

I normally use all mine on rotation, the smaller bottles I use as travel perfumes. If it's one I won't use again, it goes to the DDs or used to spray the hoover filter.
