Smelling good never goes out of style, so it makes sense that fragrance deals are hard to come by. Lucky for all of us, early Black Friday perfume deals have always answered a handful of prayers. Last year, some of our favorite brands and retailers featured exciting scent discounts just in time for the holidays. If you didn’t know, Black Friday is no longer just for 4K TVs (although you might as well). It’s for scoring new, elegant signature scents, and in 2022, that meant discounts of up to 40 percent. So, just thinking about 2023’s Black Friday beauty deals potential has us raring to go.
We poked around at some of our favorite multi-brand retailers like Sephora and Nordstrom and pulled some prime picks we hope to see on sale this year. We’re talking perfumes, colognes, candles, perfume oils. Best of Beauty Award-winning brands like Gucci and Ellis Brooklyn made the list. There’s something for everyone, whether your olfactory vibe is floral, woody, spicy, or mysterious and unnamable.
Black Friday 2023 is right around the corner, so scroll through these early deals as the big weekend nears. Our fingers and toes are crossed for even more in the coming weeks. Won’t you join us?
