In the middle of a recession we need to find ways to save money and, why not? splurge on other things. Fragance in my opinion should be a save for most of us. I mean we should all have that one expensive perfume for special occasions, but we should give knock-offs a try for not so special occasions. Plus, most of us normal girls have more important expenses than fragances(school, car, mortgage, insurance, and much more). This is just the point of view of a regular college girl with a part time job. There is nothing wrong with buying knock-offs.

They will probably just change the names to something similar but not the actual trademark. I recall seeing these and few smelled close to real thing.

They should really just use another name as lawsuits are heating up regarding copyright infringement. I guess there is a lot of money to be lost for a company when this occurs. In fact, I saw an artist using the LV logo and handbag in a t-shirt design and they are suing her - and it was for charity to help Darfur.

I don't see the big deal with perfume knock-offs. However, I suppose I can see how their name use could ruffle their feathers a bit. I agree. I don’t see the big deal with perfume knock-offs.
