The Perfume Shop

Hey. Hope someone can help me! I am getting married next year and for my wedding favours for the ladies I have decided I would LOVE to give them a miniature bottle of Avons fragrance far away. I have loved this ever since my mum sold them when I was little and find even now when I wear it people always comment and ask what I am wearing. I already have 3 mini bottles from some time ago, but on a recent search on the net for the mini bottles have found a boring looking bottle
Like testers. I am really looking for the mini bottles that look exactly the same as the normal sized ones. See pic below:

If anyone has any suggestions on how I could get my hands on around 30 of these then I would be so grateful. Sadly I don’t think it’ll happen and I am guessing it’ll cost a small fortune!

THANK YOU!! I am so excited!
I haven’t even asked people on here what they think to the idea. If you have any comments good or ad please feel free, and if you can think of another fragrance please do. I am giving the boys mini bottles of JD (My fave drink!!) mmm. Looking through eBay (may have to just keep buying off there (if enough’s listed. haha!!) But they seem to be more money than the full bottles! pft May choose to have different minis. Thanks for your replies so far.
Babydoll..I think yours was a good idea. But I have my heart set on this, but perhaps I will find mixe fragrances? I’ll keep on the look out anway. Just wanted to give them something theyd use and its cute and small and will fit in their bag (’Id love it anyway)XX
Thank you again Babydoll! I love Givenchy too!! And saw lovely angel star bottles also. I know it’s going to be a lil expensive but my dress was £100 and I am making my own stationery etc. My venue’s Hazelwood Castle…

which is very expensive but worth it. Maybe I will be lucky and find Avon sell them still (not on the site) but don’t think eBay will have enough listed by next wedding. May be around £5 each but I guess if I’m not buying them all t the same time I won’t realise. haha. Nor my h2b. I just wana give the people who I love something special.
Babydoll…Thank you for all ya help. Soooo good of you!!! It is on Sat 25 July and then on following Monday we are going to Disney world for our honeymoon for a week and then having a week somewhere else (don’t know where tho). But soo excited about Disney world and haven’t ever been to America before so can’t wait!!!
I have thought about maybe buying a fragrance and getting one of these…

and maybe keep in theme with my fave disney film…Aladdin. but I don’t know if that’d work. Cn’t find any wholesale prettier. Any suggestions?x
IF I DON’T FIND ANY SHOULD I JUST BUY EMTPY DECANTERS AND GET SOME PERFUME TO FILL THEM OR SHOULD I BUY MIXED LOT OF MINI FRAGRANCES? SHOULD THEY BE THE SAME?? thanks xx
Kinda unsure what to do now, as everyone is saying that this a bad idea as some people might not like the fragrance etc and just to get them chocolates etc, but I wanted something different. And if people don ‘t like their fragrance then if I get different types then they could swap, Besides, I am sure thery won’t care that much. I mean, everyone gets perfume from ppl for xmas etc and I always wear what ppl give me. But they could give it to the bms if they dont etc. Hmmm.

I bought a bottle of Chanel #5 for a friend for her birthday. Quite simply, what should I do to ship it to her? Like what kind of packaging, will customs not allow perfume? Should I use national post service, or like Fedex? Her b-day is April 26th. I figure with decent shipping it can arrive in a week and half. Can someone help me out with this please?

If you had to choose one, and it was your first time to the city. Or is there some other perfumista’s dream location?

My boyfriend and I went shopping for perfume about 4 months ago and we bought one that we both really liked. Well, now he doesn’t like it as much for some reason. Maybe he got used to it and it does’t excite him anymore. But I’m trying to find a new one. His brother’s girlfriend wears a certain perfume that I like, but I don’t know if I should use the same one. Do you think 2 women who know each other should use the same perfume?

I bought three bottles of perfume from Avon for xmas presents and don’t really like it I would like to return it for refund. How do I go about that when my rep is no longer in the business

I wanted to buy the Diesel - Fuel For Life (Fragrance for men). It costs around 45 GBP from their website, but a perfume store in the local mall has it for 35 GBP.

Any tips? They look pretty much the same, and the shop looks great, with a lot of other branded perfumes for men and women.
Cologne, perfume. You know what I mean.

I’m going to Cancun tomorrow and when I come through the airport I want to buy her some nice perfume because of the duy free shopping it’ll be alot cheaper.

What are some good brands?

I am going to Olu Deniz in two weeks and was wondering if there are any perfume shops there? not market stalls, actual perfume shops that sell real stuff. Also, how much spending money would i need for a week?

It is in a peachy bottle and is almost sweet to the nose. I found it accidentally while shopping in a gift shop along the Champs Elise. It was not expensive.. But I have been searching for it ever since (2001)

I love the smell of new cloth in the department stores when I go shopping. I can’t imagine that nobody has come up with a perfume or cologne that smells like new clothing. Is there one?

How about one that smells like fresh soap, like Irish Spring or Dial? Thanks.
