Best shop/site for aftershave/perfume? [REQ]

um7y1h83ge06nx · 2006-07-24 15:18:28

Hi. Continuing on from the "Best "Everyday" aftershave" thread, I was wondering where is the best shop or site for aftershave or perfume? There is a lot of sites, but some don't deliver to Ireland or else they have high delivery charges. I haven't really checked out bricks and mortar shops yet. Thanks.

You could try WOW Woman, free delivery no matter how large your order (their Useful Info page states). Same company that runs CD WOW I believe.

www.strawberrynet.com is quite good, and has a fair range of mens stuff.

Now, why must so many of us in this thread alone have a Sonic avatar?

The unfortunately named www.cheapsmells.com is good for perfumes and aftershaves. They're based in Jersey and deliver to Ireland . They are quite reasonable for delivery price and have some good bargains

Terrible name alright, what were they thinking! I think the shipping on the below stores are reasonable.

Buy4Now has Arnotts and Sam McCauley (chemist, health and beauty shop) online.

Lookfantastic.com

Check out here for some more info:
http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=305891

From my own expierence:

I used perfumeireland.com to order 2 bottles. But then I got a letter from customs. THe package had come from Hong Kong and I had to pay import/customs etc....

The owner of this website is / was a member of boards.ie and he said that sometimes he orders from strawberry.net for his own customers when he has no stock.

I turned out fine in the end and he paid my customs. But its just to let you know that some of Strawberry.net items may get held up.

Regards

Just wondering - If I order today, will I receive my product before Christmas?
4 weeks should be plenty.
