Assess your budget.
Not all expensive perfumes are the same level of expensive, okay?! The lower-priced perfumes on this list, like Kilian Angels' Share and Byredo Bibliothèque, come in around or less than $200, which is a pretty penny, but not entirely out of the realm for something you'll legit spray on every single day.
However, if you've got more cash to spend, you might consider taking things up a notch with an extrait de parfum, which definitely costs more but has more longevity and intensity. Some of my favorites include Perfumehead's Cosmic Cowboy and Bacarrat Rouge 540 Extrait.
Determine your go-to scent family.
If you're going to spend a large amount of $$$ on an expensive perfume, you should prob make sure it's a scent family that you'll wear all the time. Gourmands and vanilla-heavy perfumes are great for those who like to smell edible and sweet, while something with lots of patchouli and sandalwood is great for a more intense, "masculine" vibe. Or you can try a fresh perfume, with aldehyde and "fresh laundry" notes or a host of florals. It's all down to personal preference, but will make a big difference in getting your money's worth.
