Fashion and Cosmetics where to buy perfume and a short history Today there are so many brand and makes its hard to choose which is good. The only way is to smell it on you. Each persons skin changes the smell of perfume. On one person it can smell fantastic and on another terrible. There is no need to pay crazy store prices any more with the opening up of safe buy on the net there are many discount companies ready to help you save money. The biggest thing I have found is stay away from Chinese or Asian sites. All there stuff is fake , if it seems too cheap there is a reason. I was having trouble finding good sites to buy 100% genuine perfume products and it was time consuming. I decided to make a page dedicated to it on the web. My page is /perfume.html”>/perfume.html. I have reviewed each site and traced their sources so you can be sure they are all safe and sell the real deal and some of them I buy from. I dont buy from all as some are regional, as only in American and some in Australia. i am in Australia but my American friends buy from the American sites. Some of the sites have FREE world wide postage. So take a look read the review there and check otu a few sites. /perfume.html”>/perfume.html I have added a short histor of perfume and its so fasinating Perfume has a very long history, with the some of the first being incense and aromatic herbs. It was used only for religious rites and ceremonies. Just think of the Christmas story when the wise men bring frankincense and myrrh. It is thought that the Egyptians were the first to incorporate perfume into their culture followed by the ancient Chinese, Hindus, Israelites, Carthaginians, Arabs, Greeks, and Romans. The word perfume comes from Latin meaning through smoke. Although perfume was first only used for religious rites, by 1580-1085 BC perfume was used during festivals and Egyptian women also used perfumed creams and oils as toiletries and cosmetics and as preludes to love-making. When Christianity spread the use of perfume started to decline. It was the Islamic community that still kept the use of perfume alive. When further the Roman Empire fell perfume's influence dwindled until the 12th century.
