How Bargain Colognes are almost never a Desirable Buy!

Wholesale colognes may seem like a good deal, but you’ll wind up paying for it over time. Whether it’s a skin rash, a product that has to be poured on to be effective or the tell-tale smell of a cheap product, that wholesale cologne is more likely to end up in the garbage than on your body.
Keep reading to find out exactly why cheap or imitation cologne is never a good idea.
Rashes
Most middle-level to higher-end colognes is tested extensively for skin sensitivities and potential allergies. Typically, good brands and retailers also let you return the product if you’re overly sensitive to it.
Alternatively, a cheap cologne uses higher alcohol content and cheaper chemical ingredients. They’re rarely tested for skin sensitivities and often lead to skin irritation, itching and rashes. At the very least, the high alcohol level will dry out your skin. Also, your chances of being able to return a wholesale or discount scent are slim to none.
Not Long-Lasting
Middle to high-end cologne is designed to last. That means if you spend the $50 or $60 for cologne like Burberry Summer, you’ll find that one spray should be enough for the night. The scent will blend with your clothes and body oils, and it will last.
On the other hand, an imitation or discount brand won’t have that longevity, meaning you’ll have to use more.
Tangy or Astringent Scent
Fake and cheap colognes have a distinct smell – like an astringent, but too-sweet alcohol that burns the inside your nostrils. It’s almost like cheap, white wine mixed with rubbing alcohol.
To understand the difference between a quality perfume and a cheap, discounted scent, do a smell test. Spray a sample of favorite, high-end cologne from a nearby department store. Now bring that paper sample to your local drugstore and compare it to the smells of the discounted and wholesale products.
Notice the difference? The way one scent is pleasant and the other burns? That’s the quality distinction.
Fake Products
Sure you may be buying Samsara by Guerlain for less than $30 a bottle, but is it really Guerlain? Often when a deal seems too good to be true, it is. That’s why if you are looking for a middle or high-end cologne and should avoid deals that are simply too good on the surface.
Most buyers should avoid online retailers of wholesale colognes and look for sales at a local, trusted store or reputable website.
