Thoughts on being a frugal perfumista on BoTO

Today on BoTO blog, Dionne posted her thoughts about being a frugal perfumista, and I can relate to many of her observations. I don’t buy very many bottles either, and I don’t buy them unsniffed. As you can imagine, I have far too many aromatic items around here as it is, lol, so I’m quite frugal in my bottle choices. I think I only bought one bottle last year, and that’s typical for me. I do buy some decants/splits because that’s a great way for me to be able to enjoy other lines. I miss seeing the bottles and boxes though and sometimes wish we had a niche perfume store within driving distance partly just to see the packaging!

Dionne came up with a motto for Sonoma Scent Studio that I love and appreciate, “Come for the low prices. Stay for the beauty.” Wow, thanks Dionne! 🙂

  1. Thank you right back, Laurie! (What a day – my first post ever, AND a pingback from my fave indie perfumer. Wow.)

    One thing I didn’t mention in that post is that three of those 14 bottles are Sonoma Scent Studio. Some day I’d like to own …. oh, about half of your line.

    1. Aw, thanks. I could really relate to your post. Even before starting my business I was a frugal perfume hobbyist. That’s partly why I’ve always offered small bottle sizes.

      I look forward to your future posts on BoTO! Have fun with it!
