On Sep 27, 2026 we recorded the US list price of 10,130 bottles from 63 houses, each read from the brand's own site. From the next check on, every change is listed here with the old price, the new price, both dates and a link to the brand's page.

  • 1The same bottle and size, never a new launch against an old one.
  • 2List prices only: store sales and discounts never count.
  • 3Jumps too big to be real are held back until checked by hand.

Why perfume costs more

Circana reported that US prestige fragrance sales rose 6% in dollars in the first half of 2026 while units were flat: the average price paid rose 5%. Part of that is higher list prices, part is buyers moving to eau de parfum and parfum, which cost more per ml. This page tracks the list-price part: each brand's own US price for the same bottle, check to check.

Why is perfume so expensive now?

Circana reported that US prestige fragrance sales rose 6% in dollars in the first half of 2026 while units were flat: the average price paid rose 5%. Part of that is higher list prices, part is buyers moving to eau de parfum and parfum, which cost more per ml.

How does EauIndex know a list price changed?

We read each brand's US list price from the brand's own website and compare it with the price from our previous check of the same bottle and size. We cannot see the exact day a brand changes a price, so each change is dated between the two checks. Store sale prices never count, and jumps too large to be plausible (usually a size mix-up) are held back until checked by hand.
