The luxury perfume market faces significant challenges due to high prices, limiting market size and repeat purchases.

Social media and e-commerce platforms expand reach, while festivals and anniversaries boost sales. Fragrance gifting remains significant, with working women and younger generations key consumers. Valuation of luxury perfume brands continues, influenced by duty-free shops, celebrity endorsement, and allergies to chemical ingredients.
