Chanel No.5 is probably the most iconic perfume ever. Marilyn Monroe once quipped, ‘What do I wear in bed? Why, Chanel No. 5, of course.’ These words were enough to immortalize the perfume’s reputation. But the fashion house believes in keeping alive the allure of the perfume. They have unveiled a rare collectible version of its perfumes. The edition is called Grand Extrait, and will cost an eye popping £2732.24 per bottle! And it is not the fragrant concoction that is behind this exorbitant price tag. The perfume will remain the same. It is the packaging that has added the value.

However the practice has been going on for many years now and a celebrity of Rihanna’s standing commands as much as £60,000 for attending a...

America and Europe disapprove of conspicuous consumption. Flaunting is not considered cool anymore. There is a growing concern about the origin of a product.

The appreciation for the skills involved in the creation of a product is much higher today. Anything mass produced becomes cheap. The world today is flooded with mass produced goods. Bespoke attention to individuality has become the ultimate luxury. The 2011 Brand Report released by the global research agency Millward Brown reveals some encouraging trend. Apparel industry increased its sales by 10%.  The luxury industry was even...
