Where To Buy Perfume Samples

The perfume industry is vast and continues to grow. One of the great things about buying a new fragrance is the available samples to try before you buy. We’ve all done it. We purchase a perfume because it smells nice on someone else or because the celebrity endorser behind the bottle is one of our favourite actors.

We are still very much influenced by our purchases when it comes to fragrances. Many places offer free samples or samples at a small cost so that you can try a fragrance before you commit to buying the bottle.

This excellent idea will save you money when buying perfume you may never wear. Everyone’s skin is different, so each fragrance will smell unique on your skin.

Friends, family, or even strangers often comment on our chosen fragrance. They like the scent and may even buy the bottle themselves, only to find it doesn’t smell the same on their skin.

Another expensive bottle of celebrity perfume sits in the wardrobe or on the dressing table. When I was younger, I loved going into the perfume stores with my late mum to get a collection of perfume samples. It was a cheap way of having a fragrance every day. Nowadays, perfume samples can be used for so many ideas.

Wedding Favours

Are you getting married?

Have you ever considered purchasing a selection of perfume samples for your guests? They’ll love this idea. Using perfume samples as wedding favours has become very popular over the last few years, and they don’t have to cost a fortune.

A great way to thank your wedding guests for attending your special day is to give them a selection of perfume or aftershave samples at the table.

Decorative bags and pouches can be bought online from places such as eBay to make the samples look more elegant as a gift.

There are some pretty drawstring pouches available in a range of colours.

An extra gift

Another idea for using perfume samples is to add a small gift to a birthday or Christmas present, particularly if you find out what fragrance the person likes, such as floral, woody, citrus, oriental, etc.

You could then choose those fragrance notes as an extra gift to pop inside their gift.

 

 

 Be creative with your samples.

If you don’t want to wear or give away your perfume samples, there are several things you can do with them.

The potpourri on your kitchen windowsill that has lost its scent can be quickly revived by sprinkling drops of your perfume sample on top.

Take a sample abroad for your holidays. When the airport limits the amount of liquid we can take, a sample bottle is the perfect solution, and you can take a few different scents with you, too.

Add a sample bottle to a water spray with a bit of water, and gently spray your car seats to give them a new scent when you return for a drive.

An excellent idea for smelly kitchen bins is to add some drops to some cotton balls and pop them in the bottom of your bin before your liner goes in.

Drawer liners keep our clothes smelling fresh, so why not add a little potpourri to a small pouch bag?

Add a few drops of your sample perfume to add a gorgeous fragrance the next time you reach for your smalls.

If you use the tumble dryer during the winter months and usually use scented sheets, why not create your own?

Add several drops of perfume onto a damp handkerchief and pop it in the dryer. Your wet clothes will come out smelling fresh, clean, scented and dry.

Where to buy perfume samples

At FM WORLD, perfume samples can be purchased between 60p ( PURE and PURE ROYAL).

You can purchase a lovely gift box for the Utique range for £26 containing all the Utique samples. Celebrity perfumes inspire all of our fragrance bars in the Utique range.

If, for example, your favourite perfume is La Vie Est Belle by Lancôme, a gorgeous floral and sweet scent, you can purchase a sample of FM 413 with very similar notes to this celebrity perfume for 60p.

A popular choice of fragrance

Thousands of men and women currently wear FM fragrances, which are popular, long-lasting, and affordable—the perfect combination. We all have a different way of thinking when purchasing products. Many prefer to buy the designer range because of the celebrity endorser behind that product. You pay a percentage towards the packaging, the designer bottle, the celebrity endorser and the TV advert that goes alongside it.

FM fragrances were created to give quality perfume that lasts longer than celebrity perfumes and is affordable for any budget. They also created perfume where you don’t pay for the above external factors. They all contain 20% or 30% pure perfume oil. This means that your fragrance will last around eight hours if you use 20% perfume and even longer if you buy a 30% perfume oil fragrance.

Quality samples, quality perfumes

Buyers want to pay for quality and do just that at FM. With over 200 fragrances, we are spoilt for choice when choosing one of our favourites. We don’t need to spend £80-£100 on designer fragrances when we can buy a more affordable bottle with similar notes. They are so similar that they smell almost identical.

Pure and Pure Royal Range

 

With such a large selection, the PURE and PURE ROYAL range samples are 1.4ml sample bottles.

The applicator, a plastic wand attached to the lid, applies the sample to your skin. If you require that extra touch, the paper sample holders can be bought separately for 80 pence each.

 

The Utique Range

 

With FM WORLD’s Utique range, twelve scents have been created with a selection of delightful fragrance notes. Eight of those fragrances ( Black, Gold, Ruby, Bubble, Ambre Royal, Ambergris, and Malachite) sit in the oriental family so you will have scents such as floral, woody, spicy, vanilla and ambergris notes.

Three of the scents ( Muffin, Flamingo, Violet Oud) sit in the flower family so you will have fruity, oriental, citrus, woody and water notes. The last scent (Sexy Cashmere) sits in the wood family group with notes of floral, fruit and oriental. All the perfumes in the Utique range are unisex and contain 20% perfume.

They measure as 2ml samples and come with their paper sample holder. Another elegant way to give as a gift and this collection has a spray top for easy application.
