You found your favorite perfume. You’ve been wearing it for years. It’s your signature scent. Unfortunately, you just found out it’s discontinued. If you didn’t stock up, don’t fret. There are places where you can find and purchase your discontinued perfume.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Try EBay. This is a great place to find outdated, discontinued and vintage anything. With eBay, you also have the advantage of finding a great deal as it’s likely more than one person is selling your perfume and they will compete against each other for your sale.

  2. Step 2

    Check out The Perfume Station online. You can search for discontinued fragrances by gender, age and name.

  3. Step 3

    Try Fragrance.net. On the right side of the homepage, there’s a sidebar. Scroll down near the bottom and click on ‘hard to find scents’. They may just have your favorite perfume.

  4. Step 4

    Discover Aunt Judy’s Attic. They have a huge stock of discontinued perfumes. From high-end and rare scents, to everyday wear.

  5. Step 5

    Search for your perfume at Perfume.com. They a large inventory of perfumes, discontinued or not and they have sales constantly, offering deep discounts on many fragrances.

  6. Step 6

    Check with Perfumegiftset.net. This is a bidding site, where you can bid on and buy not just perfume gift sets, but individual discontinued perfumes as well.

  7. Step 7

    Ask at Affordable Scents. If they don’t have the perfume you’re looking for listed, they have a contact page where they offer to find your perfume. And they usually reply to queries very quickly.

Tips & Warnings
  • Contact the maker. Sometimes, the creator of the fragrance can direct you to places where you can still find your perfume.

on 10/7/2008 This is great info. Perfume does have a shelf life however, so people need to be careful buying old perfume.
Good topic!
