Shopping Helps

I recently began selling to the retail market after being a Perfume Wholesale Distributor in the Discount Perfume industry for over 28 years. I started selling on eBay and soon noticed some items from my competitors had substantially lower pricing than I could purchase from perfume distributors and the fragrance manufactures. I came across an item by Chanel that caught my eye. This is a company that has strict distribution and limits its supply to all of its distribution channels.

Coco Mademoiselle Eau de Parfum Spray 3.4oz, which retails for $110.00, was on eBay for $39.95. This item, when it is available, sells in the wholesale market for around $85.00. As a consumer, this should immediately put up a red flag as it did for me that this product was either counterfeit or stolen. Based on the price I ruled out stolen merchandise. There is no need to cut the price of perfumes this low. In fact, you can sell perfumes close to or at market price.

The first clue in determining if a product is real is the pricing. If it is too good to be true, it usually is. To further my research, I purchased the Coco Mademoiselle. At first glance it looked real but then I closely examined the details of the packaging and components against one I purchased from a distributor for Chanel. There were obvious differences between the products.

Here are some things to look for that will let you spot counterfeit perfume. You can do this by comparing the item in question against one from a department store Read the rest of this entry »

It is notable that there are only a few women who successfully get the limelight in the world of fashion design. However, those few women are truly worthwhile and are immensely and significantly adored by the fashion world. Germaine Emilie Krebs is one of them. Born in Paris, France in 1903, Krebs formed her own fashion company called Gres in her home city in 1942.

Parfums Gres is the specific perfume house that is associated and formed by Germaine Emilie Krebs. The fragrance maker is still actively developing, manufacturing and distributing its famous perfumebrands, though having been relocated from France to Switzerland. The brand’s most popular perfume names include Folie Douce, Caline Night, Cabotine, Caline and Cabaret.

Alex Couture was the name of the first ever fashion house put up by Madame Gres. That was in 1932. After co-venturing with a friend, she agreed to modify the structure of her maiden business and a year after, the name was changed to Alex Barton.

As a designer, Madame Gres has proven her worth and has natural knack for making beautiful clothes. The label’s clothing for women has been known all over the world for having what it seems like magical power that transforms ordinary looking women into instant celebrities.

The name Gres was derived from Madame Gres’ husband. The name was an anagram of her husbands’ alias and first name. The husband was Serge Czerefkov, who was a Russian painter. He left Madame Gres in 1937 and left for French Polynesia, a French colony. Since then, Mr. Czerefkov never came back.

Among the most high profile clients of Gres include Marlene Dietrich, Jacqueline Kennedy, the Duchess of Windsor and Greta Garbo. Consumers and fashion reviews established that this fashion brand was sophisticated and partly classical, prompting many clients to celebrate owning a Gres.

The brand was forced to include a ready-to-wear clothing line at their stores due to high demand. Also, because the industry calls and demand has been steadily rising, the brand soon was made truly popular and noteworthy. The next time you get hold of a Gres product, whether perfume or clothes, do not forget the woman behind the brand.
