Bvlgari Perfume - Spelling It Is Hard, Loving It Isnt

All English majors in the world -- RUN! The Bvlgari perfume is going to drive you and your spellchecker insane. Sometimes, when trying to find information on Bvlgari perfume, you might have to look for "Bulgari perfume". It in the nature of our brains to try and make order out of chaos. "Bvl" just doesn't have a phonetic equivalent. But "Bul" does, and so perfume sellers continue to market "Bulgari perfume" even though this is a misspelling of the product.

Bvlgari is a famous designer label, making everything from sunglasses to watches. They also, obviously, make fabulously expensive perfume. They are considered the brand you want to wear if you are nominated for an Oscar. The Bvlgari brand name is less well known than Tiffany's, but has a more fanatical and discriminating following. Bvlgari watches, for example, are considered equal to Rolex.

Bvlgari perfume is made with some super expensive ingredients......like roses. I'm not talking about your everyday garden rose either, I'm talking about two tons of rose petals just to get 1 oz of pure rose oil. Good grief! Talk about a pricey perfume!

One of the most popular Bvlgari perfumes is Rose Essentielle, which is mostly made up of other scents other than rose, or no one would buy it. It also has blackberry, living mimosa, patchouli and several other flowers whose names makes this writer's eyes cross.

One of the more realistic and fun options Bvlgari perfumes provides that many other designer perfume makers don't is that they sell tester sized bottles. They are usually are sold online, so you need to fire up the old Google and your old noodle in order to find them.

The quickest way, of course, is to just head on over to a wholesale perfume site. It's a site that offers tester bottles, opened box perfumes, and wholesale perfumes, all at a discounted price. The downside? There might not be a fancy bottle or a pretty box to look at. But hey, you'll have the $100 perfume for $50, so who cares?

eBay is another option if you're looking for tester bottles, but I wouldn't recommend it. Too many scams and knockoffs abound, and it's so hard to tell if you've got a good seller or not. With a discount perfume site, you're only dealing with one company, every time you purchase. If you do go the eBay way, check the feedback rating and never send money by wire! Ever!

If you want a bottle of Bvlgari Rose Essentielle, expect to pay anywhere from $90 to $130 dollars at a department store. If you shop around, expect to pay around $50 or $60 dollars for the same size (3.4 oz). Just remember that your friends might be a little jealous when they find out you went out and bought a bottle of Bvlgari. After all, they don't know you got it for half price, that is, unless you tell them!
