There's an idea stuck to niche perfume that it has to cost at least a couple of thousand kroner. It's not true. Some of the most fun scents on our shelves cost less than dinner out.
Here's what you can get for under 500 DKK with us, sorted by what you're looking for.
Full bottles under 500 DKK
Theodoros Kalotinis: 50 ml for 335 DKK
A Greek perfume house making scents that smell exactly like what's written on the bottle. It's not subtle, and it's not meant to be.
- Cinnamon Rolls smells of freshly baked cinnamon buns with caramelised sugar and butter. Perfect now that it gets dark early.
- Lemon Tart is lemon tart with vanilla cream and a crisp, buttery crust.
- Pear Gelato is pear ice cream in a waffle cone. Sweet and playful.
- Aegean Salt & Citrus is the fresh one. Sea salt and citrus, like a summer day in Greece. Good for everyday, at the office too.
Versatile Paris: 30 ml for 480 DKK
A young French brand with scents built around small everyday moments, and names that make people laugh. Croissant Café is breakfast in Paris. It's a match-a is built around matcha. Culot Thé is all about tea. And there are more in the full collection.
30 ml is a good size. Big enough to wear every day for months, small enough that you won't get tired of it before it's used up.
Discovery sets: try lots of scents for one price
If you don't know what you like yet, a discovery set is the smartest place to start.

Samples from 35 DKK
Almost every scent in the store comes as a 2 ml sample. That means you can try a 1,500 DKK extrait for under 100 DKK and wear it for several days before you decide. That's how we'd shop ourselves.
You'll find the sample under the sizes on each scent in all fragrances.
Gift cards
If it's a gift and you're unsure about their taste, give a gift card for whatever amount you like. Then they can come by the store and smell their way through.
Price isn't the same as quality
A 335 DKK scent isn't worse than a 1,500 DKK one. It's just made differently, in a different size or from a house with a different price point. What matters is that you like how it smells on you.
