Perfume Deals
Amazon markdowns on the perfumes we write about, checked every half hour. Each listing is matched to the bottle and concentration on our notes page, so a sale on an Intense flanker, a tester or a gift set can't stand in for the perfume you came for.
Black Friday 2026
Black Friday is November 27 and Cyber Monday is November 30. Amazon has started its Black Friday sale a week early in recent years, and some deals last only hours, which is why this page keeps checking. Amazon says anything bought between November 1 and December 31 can be returned until January 31, 2027, under its usual rules for what can be returned. Amazon says that holiday window now applies every year.
Is the crossed-out price the real original price?
Amazon says it only shows a crossed-out price it has checked, usually labelled List Price or Typical Price. Typical Price comes from what the bottle has recently sold for on Amazon. List Price is the brand's suggested price, and it has to have been charged recently, on Amazon or at another retailer. A saving against Typical Price tells you more, because it's measured against what people actually paid.
Are gift sets and testers better deals?
Sometimes, but they're a different purchase. A holiday gift set usually pairs a bottle, often a smaller one, with a travel spray or a body lotion, so check the bottle's size before comparing. A tester is the full perfume, usually in a plain box and sometimes without a cap. This page leaves out gift sets, samples and refills, and matches the standard bottle.
Why does one perfume show several prices?
Several sellers can list the same bottle, and each sets its own price. The size matters too: a 100 ml bottle at a markdown can still cost more per millilitre than the 200 ml at full price. Before you buy, check the size and who it ships from and is sold by; the seller's name is on the listing beside the buy button.
Do designer perfumes go on sale for Black Friday?
Plenty are marked down even before the sales start: on an ordinary November day, about one in five of the perfumes we track on Amazon was at least 5% off. If what you want isn't on the list, a dupe-house alternative often costs a fraction of the price all year round, and our Aventus and Baccarat Rouge 540 lists go through the closest ones.
What makes the list
- Perfumes we cover. Every bottle here has a notes page on this site, so you can see what's in it before you click through.
- The right version. The Amazon listing has to name the same perfume and concentration. Eau de toilette and eau de parfum versions of one name often smell quite different.
- A real markdown. At least 5% below the list price Amazon shows, or flagged by Amazon as a deal.
