How Do You Get Perfume Samples?
Admit it. You get perfume buying anxiety. Or maybe cologne buying anxiety, depending. The store sample smells delightful, perhaps even a little provocative (we get it) in the store. But then, a week later, your perfume situation turns sour. Maybe you begin to detest the scent. Or your grandma says you smell like rotten peaches. The point is, there are numerous reasons to want perfume samples!
Finding a perfect, even sexy, scent can be an uphill task. You can end up frustrated and empty inside. OK, that latter part is a bit dramatic, but I felt the need to really “hook you.”
Some people don’t understand how to get free perfume samples. If you are one of these folks, and we assume you are considering you are still reading, hang on; your bodily aroma is about to improve drastically.
Ask For Department Store Perfume Samples
This one is obvious and, well, not the best option. However, I use it as our lead in this article because it’s the most popular way. When you go into a department store, perfume sample people crowd most of the aisles asking to give you a spray.
Whether you are browsing Macy’s, Nordstroms, or Sephora, you can request a sample of perfumes for free. Sometimes you win; sometimes you lose.
The downside here is you are a slave to which perfumes the department store carries. And you don’t get much, so you don’t get a true fragrance “life” test run. It can take a week or two to get used to a fragrance truly.
Also, you have to drive to the store and endure the shopping experience. For many, online shopping is a more convenient (and, given the times, safer) way to shop. Online shopping means more versatility.

Some Fragrance Makers Offer Free Samples
Again, don’t expect a large amount. But some fragrance companies do provide you with free samples of their mainstay perfumes. Often, they do so in exchange for your contact information. Submitting your email grants them the right to market to you. Perfume marketing updates isn’t necessarily a big deal so long as you don’t mind the information.
Use Social Media
Search for perfume samples on Instagram and Facebook. You’ll be surprised by how many fragrance companies offer free samples on social media.
The downside is you must accept the fragrances they are pushing at the time. But hey, it’s free, so one should not complain.
Become a Perfume Influencer
Do you have a personality that attracts followers? Maybe you’d make a good Instagram influencer.
You’ll need to make an initial investment by purchasing fragrances on your own and reviewing them in the beginning. But once you amass some followers, you can pitch yourself as a perfume influencer to major fragrance makers. They may send you samples or even full products in exchange for your reviews.
And to boot, you’ll become somewhat famous!
That said, the life of an influencer is far from easy. It takes a lot of commitment and hard work to gain popularity on Instagram. So be prepared to put in some hours in exchange for earning a trusting fan following. Also, suppose you just pimp out products that pay you the most. In that case, people will begin to see you as disingenuous, which will lower your overall perceived value by corporations, including perfume makers.
