Top 10 Most Expensive Colognes

Perfumes and colognes are more than just fashion accessories. They amplify a person’s personality but more importantly, they are a status symbol. This is the reason why fragrances are becoming more expensive by the day and knowing which one to buy is often dictated by personal preferences and personal style. It also doesn’t hurt to have a great pay check as some of the best colognes are likely to cost you a small fortune.

Since selling good has definitely become part of most men’s grooming routine, finding the right cologne has become an art that every man must excel at. To find the right cologne, a man must take a number of factors into consideration. He must of course decide what appeals to his personality and body chemistry. But perhaps the most important aspect is usually the price. The higher the cost, the more value and luxury you can expect from a fragrance.

These top 10 most expensive colognes demonstrate just how high that price can be sometimes.
