Shopping with Fragrancedirect

Choosing the right fragrance

Start with the scent family or product type rather than the price. Perfumes, aftershaves and cosmetics can look similar in a listing, so confirm the exact product name before adding it to a basket.

Checking concentration and size

Compare the bottle size and concentration, as these vary between versions of the same name. A smaller size can suit someone trying a scent for the first time, while a larger bottle makes more sense for a regular favourite.

Planning a gift

If the fragrance is a present, allow time to check availability and delivery before the occasion. A familiar scent is a safer choice than an unfamiliar one for someone you do not know well.
