How Much Is Too Much To Pay For A Perfume?

Filed Under: Fragranz!

What if it was a special, one-of-a-kind perfume made exclusively for you? Would you pay $10,000 for it?

Well, some people would!

L'Artisan Parfumeur, a French niche perfume house, has created some unique scents, which once sold, will become that person's personal perfume forever.

And one French customer loved the idea so much, they already purchased scent #2.

So what do you get for $10k?

Turns out the perfume will never be reproduced for anyone except for the buyer. The buyer then gets a certificate of authentication and a few perfume bottles, including four 100 ml bottles, four 50 ml bottles and four 15 ml bottles.

But no worries if you run out of your very own perfume too quickly. You can always order more. For just $450 per 100 ml bottle you can reorder more.

And, since it comes with a certificate, it can also be inherited by an heir or given to someone else.

At the moment, there's currently seven more exclusive fragrances to buy at the different L'Artisan botiques worldwide.

And if you're in New York, you can check out the only exclusive fragrance in the US at Henri Bendel on New York City's Fifth Avenue. Well, that's if you have the $10,000 to spend on it.
