The sense of smell is one of the strongest senses. The smell of the sea in winter, the smell of wet grass in a green field, the smell of gasoline and grease working on your old classic car. Beautiful things wouldn’t be the same without their scent.

The same occurs with people. I’m sure you remember the perfume worn by your first high school date, the smell of your grandpa after shave, the scent worn by your mother in important events. Unfortunately some of this perfumes are no longer available, they are discontinued perfumes.

Even if you’re not a “good ol’ days were better” person surely you wouldn’t mind to recall back the days spent with your loved ones, the first dates with your actual partner or the time spent with someone who passed by. Wearing their favorite perfumes or just smell it is one of the strongest way to remember them. Chances are the perfumes they used to wear is a discontinued perfume. How would you like to have a bottle of that discontinued perfume? There are some ways to get your hands on one bottle:

Ever thought about eBay? They sell discontinued fragrances for an affordable price. Look for your favorite one, you may surprise yourself to see somebody has just what you’re looking for.

What about you favorite perfumes shop? Have you asked them if they still have discontinued perfumes? Maybe they have in stock a perfume they no longer keep on the shelves and they can even sell it for a cheap price, since their chances to sell it are very little.

Some perfumes gain value with the time, though. Just like a bottle of good wine, time adds value to it and the price could be not that cheap.

Discontinued perfumes make great presents too. Surprise your husband with a bottle of the scent he used to wear when he was younger, your wife with that scent she likes to smell on your skin or a loved person with the perfume she used to wear and no longer can because is now in the list of discontinued perfumes.

Yes, this is the real value of discontinued perfumes. The value to make you remember good time spent with friends and family. Open the bottle and smell the perfume,  joyful sensations of friendship and love will come to your mind.
