The Most Expensive Perfumes In The World You Wish You Could Afford!

The Most Expensive Perfumes In The World You Wish You Could Afford!


I love window shopping just like all women in the world do! But you know what? I always end up sniffing around near the perfume kiosks. And as you have already guessed it, I never go back without trying out a few testers! If you’re like me and want to indulge in some perfume geekery, then join me in my journey of looking at the world’s most expensive perfumes.

1. Clive Christian Imperial Majesty

I wonder what a perfume costing $215,000 might be made of! That’s the whopping amount which British designer Clive Christian charges for offering this beauty. The pure pleasure of looking at this perfume comes from the bottle which has been set in an 18 carat gold collar, studded with a 5 carat diamond, and bodied out of pure Baccarat crystal. Only 5 pieces are produced each year, making this 17 oz. of perfume an exclusive rarity. No prizes for guessing that Guinness Book of World Records has noted this perfume as the most expensive perfume in the world. Make way for the imperial Majesty.

2. Clive Christian No. 1

Yes, Clive Christian is here again! Don’t even make the mistake of comparing it to the Imperial Majesty. This perfume is in a different league altogether. Although it’s a magnificent combination of Indian jasmine, sandalwood and mandarin, critics have panned it down in comparison to Christian’s Imperial Majesty. A pure visual delight, the neck of the bottle is set in 24 carat gold plated sterling silver, accentuated by a solitaire.
Priced at $2,150 for a 2 oz. bottle, Clive Christian is not getting any cheaper!

3. Caron’s Poivre

If you like discreet floral fragrances like rose, lavender, jasmine, carnation, sandalwood, cedar, Lily of the valley, musk and tonka, I bet you’ll love Caron’s Poivre. Retailing at $2,000 for 2 oz., this perfume is captured in a Baccarat bottle. The beauty of this fragrance lies in the white gold collar which is encrusted with crystals. I find it very fascinating that pepper was the inspiration for this perfume. Did you know that ‘Poivre’ meant ‘pepper’ in French?

4. Chanel No. 5

I may or may not ever be able to afford the top three perfumes in this list, but I surely want this one in my kitty! If there’s anything evergreen in the perfume industry, then this is it. Launched way back in 1921 by Coco Chanel herself, this perfume will cost you around $1,850 for 15.2 oz. of pure bliss. I don’t know whether this is true or not, but rumor has it that one bottle of Chanel No. 5 is sold every 30 seconds across the world! Did you know, when this perfume was released, Coco was giving out free sample to her special clients. Now, that’s a special touch to this long standing brand.

5. Baccarat’s Les Larmes Sacrees de Thebe

You’ve heard Baccarat by now haven’t you? Yes, the crystal bottles of most expensive perfumes in the world are made by these guys. Having been in the perfume business from the late nineties, Baccarat’s Les Larmes Sacress de Thebe is a fragrance to reckon with. Priced at $1,700 for 0.25 oz., this perfume’s main flavors are the scared Frankincense and Myrrh, inspired by Egyptian Spirits of Thebe. Wow, that’s a really exotic combination, don’t you think? Just take a look at the bottle of the perfume and you’ll fall in love instantly!
I feel like having given you a royal tour of all these extraordinarily expensive fragrances! If you can ever afford any of these, I suggest you pick one up just to tell your grandkids in the future that you were the proud owner of one of the most expensive perfumes in the world!
