What is a Fragrance Tester? Advantages and disadvantages of buying it

Those who recognize a good Fragrance know that a scent is good when it lingers on your skin and leaves a mark. But not everyone can afford the luxury of buying an original Fragrance, as their prices on the market tend to be relatively high, depending on the brand and its packaging.

In this article, we want to share with you an ideal option to enjoy the smell of a good Fragrance at a quite affordable price. These are tester Fragrances or sample Fragrances.

Although many people distrust these products because they do not come in original packaging, the reality is that they are an excellent option when purchasing a quality Fragrance for both men and women. Below, we explain in detail what a tester is, its characteristics, and the differences it has compared to regular brand Fragrances.

What is a Tester Fragrance?

Tester Fragrances or sample Fragrances are made with the intention of being used in perfumeries and stores to provide customers with a sample of the scent and persuade or entice them to buy the product.

It is a 100% original Fragrance that can come in different formats such as EDT (Eau de Toilette) or EDP (Eau De Parfum). Its main difference from regular ones is its presentation. Precisely because they are sample Fragrances, manufacturers spend less on packaging, so the price of the product varies considerably.

Testers are made for all types of men's and women's brands, including the most prestigious ones. You can find them in perfumeries or stores in shopping centers as testers or also for sale.
