Money spent on fragrances vs money spent on clothes

[Bokchoy]

What would you say is your ratio between money spent on

Fragrances vs Clothes (including shoes, accessories but not jewellry)?

For me, over the past couple of years... probably 1:10 to 1:12.

[Primrose]

I don't take stock of clothes versus fragrance. Hard to quantify this.

Both are an absolute necessity!

[Bokchoy]

Neither do I, but not too hard to estimate through memory.

5/1

[hednic]

Don't keep track of my expenses shelled out regarding fragrances or clothes.

[Ivory88]

If I had to take a stab, probably around 3:1. Factor out the horribly over-priced concert T-shirts, and maybe more like 4:1.

[Slushiex3]

hmm probably like 10 : 1 haha, because i go to the gym everyday so i just wear white T's everyday, no point wasting 2 shirts in one day, (buy in bulk, 6 shirts for 17 bucks) haha. I get a new pair of shoes maybe once every10 months or so. Most of my money for clothes go to emporio armani boxer briefs for those nights. ;]

My money spent on fragrances vs money spent on clothes ratio is like 1:1, but it have to change. Variety and quality of clothes is much more important for everyday life than colognes especially when it comes to women.

I havnt spent a cent on clothes in maybe a year. On the flipside ive spent at least $1000 on cologne. I dont care about my clothes too much. Ide actually rather wear thrift store fits than i would designer clothes. As long as my face looks good and i smell great theres no need to show off with my clothes

[30 Roses]

I don't keep up with clothing styles, only wear what is comfortable and, as a stay at home mom, do not need to dress up every day. I use clothing until it wears out or stops looking right (shrinkage etc.)

So I spend much less on clothing than on fragrance. I'm sure that will change somewhat when I return to work, but I will still probably spend more on fragrance.

[MikeNY]

Clothes?

[tott]

I spend too much on fragrances and too much on clothes/accessories.

[blackened]

before (3-4 years ago) the ratio was 1:10 , now is just the opposite 10:2 for fragances

[Emlynevermore]

I smell great but I wear no pants.

[cello]

Uhm, Emlynevermore......"it's time to wear the pants!"

[alfarom]

I smell great but I wear no pants.

ditto

[Diamondflame]

More on fragrance than on clothes. But now that I've acquired some very good fragrances, my sartorial wardrobe needs an upgrade. Damn you, good fragrances...

[Mimi Gardenia]

I definitely spend more on fragrance than anything else. *LOL* I buy clothes if I really really like something and of course I have to have my cosmetics and skin care but .....perfume first !

[Dorje123]

Wow, interesting... I spend way more on clothes, but I can go a long time without buying clothes if I don't need anything. I am currently buying frags on a more regular basis but unless you're buying exclusively high end niche products it isn't nearly as expensive as clothes. I mean, a designer pair of pants can cost $150-$300 or more while the same brand's frags are $50. I shop discounters too, but even the last shirt I got at Marshalls was $50 (reg $150).

IMO, clothes, shoes and grooming have more of an effect on how you are perceived than frags. For me, a big part of my interest in frags comes from the differences in how you are perceived by others while wearing them... I find it amusing.

[Bokchoy]

Wow. Verysurprising how many people spend more money on fragrances than clothes, and by such a wide margin too.

[pawful]

this year i have spent way more on clothes than fragrances. But then i havent needed to replace my shoes, which is always a large percentage of my clothes. But I definitely smell better than I dress.

5/1

Sounds about right

[dacha]

5:1 and I'm being conservative!

[LOST!]

Good question... Before this year, it'd have been 1:10ish as I'd maybe buy 2 scents in a year, whereas I'd buy clothes or footwear every pay day... This year has gone full turn. Hardly bought any clothes. But been buying up to 6 frags in a month. I even bought a shirt a couple of months back to suit the frag I'd just bought!!

Currently it'd be around 6:1

[Sunsetspawn]

As long as my body is right, clothes are worth fuck-all to me.

[Cornflake]

Probably 2:1 clothes to fragrances

[Suppressor]

Clothes?

² !!

[Galizur]

Fragrance to clothing/accessories ratio?

1:7, I think.

On a side note, the money I was supposed to be saving on clothes (lost weight a couple months back and need to buy fitted jeans, etc that was to be spent on Father's Day - waiting on deals/bargains for that weekend) end up going to Creed Aventus 120mL flask. lolz
