Are you in front of a perfume shelf with a calculator at hand and you don’t know what to choose? Let’s open a big secret: the quality of the perfume does not depend in the first place on the price!
Let’s start with a spoiler: the longevity and sillage of a perfume has nothing to do with its final price or the cost of the perfume’s ingredients. It all depends on the characteristics of the scented materials: for example, any citrus fruit will “fly away” fairly quickly, and the “wood” will “stay” on the skin until the last, i.e. before going under the shower, or even longer.
And now back to the question of the price of the coveted bottle.
Yes, yes, it’s the bottle, and not just the perfume composition itself. Its cost is of course important, but the final price does not include only this one.

The manufacturer buys not only concentrate and alcohol, but also many other components: the bottle itself (if a special shape has been developed for this, it is better not to know how much it costs at all!), the pump, the sprays, the tubes, the caps. , cardboard, printed labels and packaging , wraps everything in cellophane, labels (we remind you that all perfumes sold in Russia have a label that you can verify thanks to “Honest Sign” – no counterfeit!).
