Expensive perfume is the gift to give her. Expensive is the operative word here. Believe me, not all perfumes are made the same way, hence the variance in cost. Prada is expensive for a reason, it is really nice and a lot of people spend a lot of time and effort formulating the fragrance so that it is well rounded and pleasing. For example, the finer perfumes are comprised of different notes or levels of fragrance, so to speak; much like a song. There may be an initial note of a fruity scent, then a second of a flowery scent, and a third note of a spicy one. As well, a perfume’s aroma is different on every woman depending on her specific body chemistry. Generally, though the more expensive the perfume the more reliable it is not to smell off after applied.

You can find the above perfumes at exclusive shops such as Harrods.co.uk or at the perfume company sites themselves. I’ll never forget when my sister received the most expensive perfume money could buy from a not so good-looking suitor: it was Cartier (the perfume not the guy) and we were all very impressed. That was fifteen years ago and I still feel pangs of envy.
