The scent of a woman is a very powerful phenomenon. It becomes her identity, her characteristic, and her soul. In the past, women of royal bearings were bathed in perfumed water by adding flowers and its essences. Over time, fashion trends have changed in clothing, accessories, hair styles and even footwear. Though most expensive women’s perfume is not popularly known, the perfumes have always remained as the most essential commodity in a lady’s handbag.
For anyone who knows a thing or two about perfumes, would swear by Coco Chanel, the French mistress of fashion and perfumery. Chanel No 5 has always been a constant in every girl’s dream of must-haves in their possession. However, the most expensive women’s perfume is something not as popularly known, but of the most exquisite scents, and of course, the price tag. In turn, prices are estimated depending on designs of the bottles and the rare ingredients used to produce these exquisite perfumes. Also, as opposed to choosing a bottle of fragrance, more luxurious scents are bought by the ounce.
