The one and only site I have been using for the past 3 and a half years: FragranceBuy.ca They're having their BLACK FRIDAY SALE: Code: BFCM2020 BOGO: Buy One Item, Get the Second Item of equal or lesser value 25% OFF Ends: Monday 11/30 at midnight
I’ve bought a handful from Amazon over the years. Mostly Creed. Completely legitimate, although I made sure I bought from Amazon direct and not a third party storefront.
I have made trips to Scent Bar in NYC and also Twisted Lily. As a fragrance noob I really valued the time I spent in both shops. Twisted Lily are happy to let you browse and sniff pretty much everything in the store, and they have a really good selection of scents. Their staff is helpful too and will guide or help if you need it, or leave you be if you prefer. Scent Bar they mostly want to ride along with you, discuss what you're looking for, and they handle and spray. At least that was my experience. It worked out well on both counts. I picked up Cedrat Boise in Scent Bar and from Twisted Lily a few things, Ani, Eight & Bob, and Walong Cha. All winners!
Hi Max. Greetings to you and your viewers. Canada is a very highly taxed country with many regulations. By the time we order perfume or anything online and convert our dollar to US, pay cross border duty and then pay for shipping and handling, buying it retail ends up costing the same however we only have one decent nationwide department store with a limited fragrance counter. I live in a remote area and the nearest niche retail shopping is a 4 hour car ride away. Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver are the only cities available for top notch shopping. I appreciate your insight and content. Continued success.
I take my old comments about my fragrance sample that i said. Mark is an awesome person and i am glad that I purchased from him. Total dedication and simple amazing customer service from this gentleman Mark Mobley. Thanks Max. i totally agree that this is much better than other online.
Another great vidéo Max ! You’re my faborite fragrance youtuber. You like Azzaro pour Homme and my father too, he has been wearing this perfume since 1980 !!! so I know the fragrances you like, I can trust you I will love them.
Excellent video Max. Im sure there are many folks out there that will definitely be grateful for this. For myself, at least several of these fine establishments have caused me to melt down a few gold bars in the past to pay the piper! lol Funny thing about Fragrancenet...the last few times Ive ordered, my fragrances have been bad. No smell at all. Ive used them for years but this is just within the last 4 months. They took them back without any issue but very strange.
Better still if you recommend resellers that ship worldwide with the cheapest cost and not just for north America coz im sure your audience are international. So far Fragrancex is the best with free shipping plus huge discount to any country.
Beverly Hills perfumery is the place was just their today the real deal great prices and Vintage !! Alan and Debbie are the real deal a wonderful real Gem 💎
Max what’s up bro. Have to add Krystal fragrance to this list. She is an amazing lady very nice polite, extremely trustworthy and professional. She deserves to be on this list. If you contact her she will also give you a coupon code!! She has banger fragrances and she always gives samples!!!
Thank you for publishing this video Max. I have been searching for this information as I try to build a small collection so I am able to rotate what I wear. I have reluctant to purchase due to the prevalence of-counterfeits. Your partnership with “my fragrance samples” is a great and the discount code is greatly appreciated.
Fragrancex is my online discounter. I live in Alaska and don't like paying shipping. My recent order I picked up Eros Flame, Missoni edp, and Prada black.
Grace Musila It’s weird. I just checked some prices and now Perfume is higher. Before they were always 2-3% cheaper. I bet they fluctuate back and forth.
Hi Max! I have purchased some creed fragrances from you and even spoken to you on the phone, you were very nice and helpful, thank you! Anyway, I wondered if you can help me here, I have fallen in love with the House of Silage Whispers of Truth frag!!! But my goodness it is $500 and you’re mainly paying for the beautiful bottle that contains it! Can you suggest a similar scent? Thank you so much!!!
Thanks Max! I agree that Fragrancenet is lacking and I don’t use them anymore. Any news on when Acqua di Gio Profondo is launching here?? I hear it’s fabulous!
Hey fragrance friends, I hope this helps you in your searches and to build your fragrance collection/wardrobe. Have a wonderful and fragrant day! Let me know if there's any other place(s) I should checkout if you have had great experiences with other places I didn't mention in this video...
I got two in particular i'd like to "shout out" lol I've bought from NotJustPerfume.com they have amazing prices as a wholesale retailer. You can even find niche brands like Amouage for almost a hundred dollars for a bottle! Also I recommend Nose Paris, a really nice european website that sells niche fragrance products internationally and I was able to get 3 bottles of Aether Parfums (Ever heard of Aetheroxyde, Carboneum, etc) for amazing prices even though the brand doesn't distribute their fragrances to the US! Both definitely authentic I think any smart fragrance shopper should definitely take a peek at what they have.
NoseParis.com is my favorite online store in Europe. Online orders are shipped almost immediately..... Guys if you ever get to France 🇫🇷 and you ever purchased online from ‘em you can actually pick up your online ordered stuff from there store on: 20 rue Bachaumont 75002 Paris. tel no. 33 1 40 26 46 03 e. info@noseparis.com The Nose store is open from Monday to Saturday from 10:30am to 7:30pm. Once your purchase is over €100.00 Euros you’ll get (3) FREE decants of choice and purchases over €120.00 Euros you’ll get (6) FREE decants of your choice. They ship to over 75 Countries Internationally including Africa. There Customer Service is fantastic. - End - However; my online shopping 🛍 experience with Mancera and Montale in Paris was atrociously shocking. Most companies in France once there brand goes mainstream there customer services dilapidates and deteriorates !!! I’ll never ever shop from MONTALE or MANCERA! • Arrogant • Dismissive • They have four e mail addresses which no one replies to and if you do get a reply it’s 14 days later ! • Customer Services is Non Existent Nightmare! • On Social Media they’ll make a mediocre attempt to placate.
Max I’m 1 900 bottles away from your 2 000+ bottles; Man do I got a lot of catching up to do ;) Question: Your vast collection it seems is constantly exposed to light. It has been said for ages that sunlight, direct light or just about any kind of light whether it is direct or indirect (even light from a light bulb source) once Perfume is exposed to it; deteriorate its’ formulation. I mean stockiest, Department stores, boutiques etcetera have the things on there shelves displayed and exposed on any 365 days of the year. • Is there any truth to this ? • Is it an old wives tale or • Is it just plain fallacy ? 🤔 Comment please
Thank you for this incredible list and willingness to share your knowledge and experiences! Going to join your Facebook group and get my nose on some frags I've been jonesing for
Fragrancenet had too many poor reviews from the BBB. I went to Sephora and got Acqua Di Gio Profumo for full price but I feel comfortable it is authentic. I would have only saved $18.00 on a $100.00 bottle... Not worth the piece of mind.
That's crazy! There's absolutely nothing wrong with Fragrance net! I have ordered from them several times throughout the years, & everything is great! No problems at all! Everything is authentic, & delivery is fast!
I have had problems trying to buy twice already with different credit cards and couldn't do it also when i go to check out the price is always more that it should be. Is there anything i can do to buy from them. I want scent story 24 gold and they're the only ones that have it I'll appreciate any help from you or any of your subscribers. Thank you
hey Cristian, it's a discontinued scent - best way would be in the groups or the FragTrade here on YT every month. Just post a ISO ''in search of'' and someone should come through... Good luck!
Hi Max. What is your opinion about ForeverLux.com? Thanks for any help.

I have them as a saved seller on eBay and have had no issues at all.
They are a great site! I have ordered from them a few times, & everything has been good!
Their perfumes are authentic. But I had some that had dented caps and and packaging may not be the best shape.

From what I heard Fragrances X and Fragrance net are the same company. Fragrance X has faster shipping though. Great video Max!
Thanks Max, great video! Just ordered one of your most complimented 2019 fragrance packs and a few other samples as well!! Thanks again!
When it takes you an hour to watch a 20 minute video because you keep pausing to check out the different sites! Great info for a novice like me.
Would love to know if this guide applies or needs to be updated for 2024
Great Video Max!
Thank you so much. Yesterday I spent all day researching on this topic. Great videos as always!

Thank you so much for including us! 👃❤
Very informative vid, cheers for the info Max.
I'm so sick of the same person at work talking about discount retailers selling fakes.
Fragrancenet definitely the best. Decantshop is good but it takes a month to get my package and it's just a few states over lol.
Thanks for your feedback
thank you...
Many thanks Max, very helpful information, much appreciated.

Perfume.com is FragEx with lower prices. I don’t get it, but it’s the same company and same address.
@@jasonsh121 Hi. Really? Its cheaper? I know they are the same company.. i will try compare their prices. Thank you for the heads up

Great video! Other online store I've used is foreverlux. They're authentic just have less inventory than Fragrance.net or X.
Thank you for this incredible list and willingness to share your knowledge and experiences! Going to join your Facebook group and get my nose on some frags I've been jonesing for
I’ve been buying retail all my life for fear of buying counterfeit, so hopefully this helps me save some money!
Don't even hesitate with fragrancenet .I know they are legit and are bbb approved .
U just threw your money away......
Alan at Beverly Hills Perfumery will take care of you & I can vouch for that...even offer some decent discounts for high end fragrances.
Thank u for collecting all of the information into one very useful video, Max!
Your videos are so enjoyable ,Max ... 😊
For niche fragrances there’s no place better than Facebook groups, you always can get what you want at least 20% cheaper than discounters.
Great video and very informative! Thank you👍🏽
Love this video, I use everyone of the discounters you mentioned.
Can anyone tell me where I can find FRANK NO.3 by Frank Los Angeles?? All I can find are decants. Thanks for you help.
Fragrancenet had too many poor reviews from the BBB. I went to Sephora and got Acqua Di Gio Profumo for full price but I feel comfortable it is authentic. I would have only saved $18.00 on a $100.00 bottle... Not worth the piece of mind.
Sephora and Shoppers drug Mart are a big Crook and a big rip off
That's crazy! There's absolutely nothing wrong with Fragrance net! I have ordered from them several times throughout the years, & everything is great! No problems at all! Everything is authentic, & delivery is fast!
What about Europe online sellers?? It's a minefield out there.
In NJ, can you walk in? I'm in NJ also.. Up to me Id just go there.. Lol
Excellent video 👍
The Fragrance Decant Boutique thanks 👍
Any online stores that ship to Africa like Malawi
Great stuff man!
Great information! thank you for this.
Hey Max, the coupon code isn't working?
I have had problems trying to buy twice already with different credit cards and couldn't do it also when i go to check out the price is always more that it should be. Is there anything i can do to buy from them. I want scent story 24 gold and they're the only ones that have it
I'll appreciate any help from you or any of your subscribers. Thank you
Great Information...thanks for sharing!
