I Write About Fragrance for a Living—And Hunt Down Deals for Fun. These are the Black Friday Perfume Offers That Truly Stand Out
From iconic names to family favourites

I'll be honest, I love a great bargain—though as a beauty editor, I'm very aware of overconsumption, and sale culture just intensifies that. However, when it comes to skincare tools (a sizeable purchase) or Black Friday fragrance deals, I feel a bit differently.
The best perfumes out there are expensive. Trust me, as a scent-focused editor, I spend most of my days testing the latest and greatest in perfumery. So, I can tell you one thing for sure: the very best fragrances tend to have hefty price tags.
And while my love for all things scent is no doubt down to the luxury of it all, even I can't deny the appeal of the deals to be had. In fact, I often recommend that anyone hold off buying the one luxury perfume they've had their eye on all year until the last week of November—because more often than not, you're going to make a notable saving.
Today, the fragrance deals are still in full swing. These are the scents I would recommend to anyone, even at full price.

Black Friday Perfume Deals
With an extrait intensity, the juice carries a make up of 30% fragrance oil—one of the most potent fragrance blends available. This means longevity and a knockout sillage with a price tag of just £63.90, which is almost unheard of in the extrait game. Retrospect is the sort of perfume you toss nonchalantly into your The Row Margaux bag in the morning, letting it rattle around in the suede interior with all of your other worldly possessions—effortlessly chic, painfully cool and, beautifully, a part of you.
Phlur's Vanilla Smoke, with notes of incense and aromatic birch, might just be the vanilla to convince even the most sweet-averse to give into gourmands. With notes of creamy vanilla, incense, amber, aromatic birch, cacao blanc, and smoky balsam, it layers the sweeter top notes over a blanket of cosy, woody base scents.
Arguably the "cool girl" scent of the year, Miu Miu Miutine opens with a hefty dose of wild strawberry, which is muddled beautifully with vanilla and brown sugar. It's an excellent modern interpretation of the classic chypre structure.
Just the sheer beauty of the angular bottle would be justification enough to make the purchase, but unsurprisingly, the juice inside is every bit as good. What do you expect? It's Prada! A mix of fresh and creamy florals with warm and musky amber—it's the perfect all-year-round fragrance.
