Buy perfume online – niche fragrances and classics
At Parfümerie & Co., you will find a selection of fragrances from renowned perfume houses and special niche brands such as Creed, Xerjoff, Maison Francis Kurkdjian, Parfums de Marly or Nishane. Every fragrance is available in its original bottle – and almost always also as a sample, so you can discover it on your skin at your leisure.
Test first, then decide: fragrance samples from 5 ml
A perfume smells slightly different on everyone's skin. That is why we also offer most fragrances as 5 ml samples, decanted from the original bottle.
Top, heart and base notes – how a fragrance is structured
Most perfumes unfold in three phases. You perceive the top note immediately after spraying – often fresh and citrusy, but it fades quickly. After a few minutes, the heart note comes to the fore and defines the character of the fragrance, for example with rose, jasmine or spices. The base note lasts the longest on the skin: woods, amber, musk, vanilla or oud give the fragrance depth and longevity.
Extrait, Eau de Parfum or Eau de Toilette?
The difference lies in the fragrance oil concentration. The higher it is, the more intense and usually longer-lasting the fragrance will be. As a rough guide, you can use these values:
- Extrait de Parfum / Parfum: approximately 20 to 40% fragrance oil – very intense, a few sprays are enough
- Eau de Parfum: approximately 10 to 20% – the everyday favourite of many fragrance fans
- Eau de Toilette: approximately 5 to 12% – lighter, ideal for warm days
- Eau de Cologne: approximately 2 to 5% – fresh and zesty, fades more quickly
Each perfume house determines the exact values itself. With the "Fragrance type" filter above, you can quickly find the right concentration.
Find the right fragrance
Do you already know which direction you like? Then browse directly by fragrance family, for example woody fragrances, floral fragrances, oriental fragrances or fresh fragrances. Or you can look specifically at women's fragrances, men's fragrances and unisex fragrances.
How to make your perfume last longer
- Spray the fragrance on warm, well-circulated areas such as the neck, nape or wrists.
- It is best to apply it to freshly moisturised skin – on dry skin, it will fade more quickly.
- Do not rub your wrists together after spraying, so that the fragrance notes are preserved.
- Store your bottles in a cool, dark place and keep them tightly closed – not in the bathroom.
