Are knock-off perfumes just as good as designer perfumes?
Beauty in all forms are in “the eyes of the beholder” so to speak. There isn’t one smell on the planet that is just universally “good”. Try bringing a friend of the opposite sex with you while shopping for a scent or asking someone who works in the store of the opposite sex for an honest opinion. Most knock offs aren’t quite as good, but I’ve also smelled very expensive perfumes that smell awful.
Try going to a designer closing store like Hollister or Abercrombie or American Eagle. Both their male and female scents are usually very nice.
An article about Knock Off Perfumes
As far as cosmetics go, name brand perfume is one of the more expensive types of cosmetic products out there on the market today. There are plenty of knock offs when it comes to designer perfume brands, but only those who really believe in quality can attest to the fact that name brand perfume is where it’s at.
Starting in the neighborhood of $50 a bottle if you are lucky, it is easy to wonder what it is about name brand perfume that incurs such a high price tag. Is it the designer name associated with name brand perfume that makes it so pricey, or is it something else, something more that justifies it being such an expensive commodity?
Designer Perfume Labels Have a Longer Lasting Scent
If you have ever been one of those people that reveled in cheap perfumes, you know that as far as smell goes, good taste can make sure that people never know the difference. At the same time, real name brand perfume is designed for longevity; knock off perfumes and lower end fragrances are usually not made to last so long and be so effervescent after such a long period a time. The difference in lasting power between high end and low end fragrances is significant; this isn’t too much from the way things are with other cosmetic products on the market as well.
You Get What You Pay For
When it comes to name brand perfumes, it is easily said that more time and money goes into the creation of such a high end fragrance, far more so than would be a cheap knock off version of the fragrance. While these businesses do get their profit, it costs more to produce the product, which certainly entails a substantially higher price tag.
Anybody who has a pretty well versed nose for fragrances knows that when it comes to name brand perfumes and those that lack such esteem in the cosmetic world, the difference really matters between the two and you get what you pay for.
Better Ingredients Go Into Better Perfume
Another thing you pay for when shelling out the big bucks for name brand perfume is what is included in it. Designer fragrances contain designer ingredients, from fine oils to natural extracts and scents. This is what makes the effect so resilient and long lasting and is also to pleasing to the nose. After they are selected, there are scientists that know just how to mix a fragrance to make it work for the nose.
Name brand perfume is not for everyone. Some people are okay with basic fragrances, body sprays, and even fairly decent copies of popular favorites. As a rule, most people cannot tell the difference. At the same time, there is something about designer perfume that complements that amazing outfit, or that new suit, or gives you the boost at the interview you have. Name brand perfume is just a finer product altogether, and men and women all over swear by it.

Knock Off – Fullscreen $8.99 Hong Kong action genre craftsman Tsui Hark directed this martial arts tale, his second collaboration with actor Jean-Claude Van Damme after Double Team (1997). Van Damme stars as Marcus Ray, a Hong Kong fashion designer who specializes in “knock-offs,” cheaply produced jeans and sneakers meant to look like major-label merchandise. With his new partner Tommy Hendricks (Rob Schneider), Marcus hopes to go legit and put his shady past behind him, but Tommy is really an undercover CIA agent investigating the smuggling of mini-bombs in Marcus’ products. An unwitting pawn in a scheme concocted by the KGB and Tommy’s CIA superior Johanson (Paul Sorvino), Marcus must clear his name and save his company. His quest to do so becomes even more complicated when local authorities link him to a murder and a vice-president, Karen (Lela Rochon), arrives from Marcus’ parent company to investigate discrepancies in his bookkeeping. Knock Off is based on a script by Steven E. de Souza, author of 48 Hrs. (1982) and Die Hard (1988). ~ Karl Williams, Rovi |
