Testers, Minis and Samples: Smarter Ways to Buy Luxury Fragrance

Testers, Minis and Samples: Smarter Ways to Buy Luxury Fragrance

Luxury fragrance doesn't have to mean full price. Testers, minis and samples are three smart ways to wear the scents you love — each for a different reason.

What is a tester?

A tester is a genuine, full-size bottle made for perfume counters, so customers can try the fragrance in store. The perfume inside is the same as the retail version. The difference is the packaging: testers usually come in a plain box or no box, and sometimes without a cap.

Good to know: testers are perfect for your own collection — not ideal as a gift, since they lack the presentation box.

What does "unboxed" mean?

An unboxed fragrance is a standard retail bottle sold without its outer box — often with its cap — at a lower price. Same scent, less packaging.

Minis: travel-size luxury

Minis are small bottles, usually 5 to 15 ml, perfect for your bag, the gym or travelling. They're also a lovely way to own several fragrances and change with your mood. Shop minis →

Samples: try before you commit

A sample vial gives you several days of wear — enough to know how a fragrance behaves on your skin, from first spray to dry-down. It's the smartest first step before investing in a full bottle. Shop samples →
