Chanel pays the strongest, full stop — a sealed Bleu de Chanel or Coco Mademoiselle is the fastest, richest fragrance offer we write, and Chanel men's colognes pay like it too. Creed and the Tom Ford Private Blend line sit right behind, with Dior, YSL and the niche houses behind them. Discontinued scents are a category of their own: when a house kills a formula, the surviving bottles climb — bring them in before they evaporate into a drawer.
What makes a fragrance pay more
- Factory-sealed in the cellophane — pays the most, every time
- Full or nearly full bottles — the level in the bottle is the value
- Batch codes intact on bottle and box, and matching
- The original box, and the boutique receipt if you kept it
- Large bottles and gift sets with everything included
- Discontinued scents and older formulations
- Bottles stored right — away from bathroom heat, steam and sunlight
Fragrance is priced bottle by bottle at the counter: the house, the concentration (parfum and extrait pay over eau de toilette), the size, the fill level and the seal all go into the number. A sealed, boxed bottle with a clean batch code gets its best possible offer the moment it is checked — nothing about the process is a mystery, and it happens in front of you.
Authenticated in store — no receipt needed
Every bottle is authenticated in store before any offer — codes, packaging, bottle work and the fragrance itself are verified at the counter, in front of you. And the house rule is simple: 100% authentic only. Real ones only. Counterfeit and imitation bottles are refused, not bought — no exceptions, and no embarrassment: if a bottle does not check out, we show you exactly what we found and hand it back. No receipt? No problem. A receipt is never required to sell or pawn with us; the bottle itself carries the proof, though a receipt and box do support a stronger offer.
The more you bring in, the more you get. One bottle is a sale; a fragrance wardrobe is a payout. Collections, gift-set hauls and closet cleanouts are priced as lots — a Chanel next to a Creed next to a Tom Ford earns more together than any of them alone — and the more you bring in, the more you get.
Conditions we buy
- Sealed and boxed, cellophane intact — pays the most
- Opened but full or nearly full — strong offers
- Partial bottles — considered case by case; text photos first for a quote
- Discontinued and vintage bottles, sealed or open
- Gift sets and collections — priced as lots
Bring a valid photo ID. Sellers and borrowers are 18+ with ID; every buy is recorded and reported exactly as Massachusetts law requires.
How it works
1. Text photos first. Photos of your perfume and cologne, front and back, plus any details, to 857-867-6468 — get a realistic range before you travel.
2. Bring it in. 1107 Commonwealth Ave, Boston — Mon–Fri 11–6:30, Sat 11–4:30. Bring a valid photo ID (18+). We authenticate and price the item at the counter, in front of you.
3. Get paid the same visit. Cash on the spot — or a pawn loan at 3% per month* if you would rather borrow against it and keep it yours.
Sell it, or borrow against it and keep it?
A shelf of sealed Chanel, Creed and Tom Ford is genuine collateral. Sell your fragrance for cash on the spot — or take a pawn loan at 3% per month* for up to 4 months, renewable, and your bottles are stored securely until you redeem them. Bigger collections are handled privately in our VIP room.
Private VIP room: for loans and purchases over $2,000, ask about our private VIP room when you book — high-value pieces are handled there, not across a busy counter.
Why bring your fragrance here?
Mail-in buyers quote one number online, then grade your piece down in a warehouse you have never seen — and hold your item hostage while you argue.
Marketplaces and consignment mean weeks of messages, flakes, fees and scam risk on a piece worth serious money.
At LBC Pawn your perfume and cologne is authenticated and priced at the counter in front of you, the offer is the offer, and you leave with cash the same visit — or a loan ticket and your ownership intact.
Skip the drive-first guesswork. Text photos of the item to 857-867-6468 and get a ballpark before you come. Prefer to talk? Call the same number during shop hours.

Questions we hear
- Do you really only buy authentic perfume?
- Yes — 100% authentic only, real ones only. Every bottle is authenticated in store before an offer. Counterfeit and imitation bottles are refused, not bought. If a bottle does not check out, we will show you what we found and hand it back — no hard feelings and no lecture.
- Which perfumes and colognes pay the most?
- Chanel pays the strongest — Bleu de Chanel on the men's side, Coco Mademoiselle and N°5 on the women's, with Chance, Allure and the Les Exclusifs line right there. Creed (especially Aventus), Tom Ford Private Blend, Dior and Baccarat Rouge 540 follow, and discontinued formulations can outpay all of them.
- Do you buy opened or partial bottles?
- Sealed bottles pay the most. Opened bottles that are full or nearly full get strong offers too. Partial bottles are considered case by case — text photos of the bottle and its fill level to 857-867-6468 first and we will quote it before you make the trip.
- Do I need the box or a receipt?
- No receipt is ever required — authentication happens in store, and the bottle carries the proof. The original box does help the offer, and a factory seal helps it most of all, so bring whatever you kept.
- Can I pawn my cologne instead of selling it?
- Yes — borrow against it at 3% per month* (plus the one-time 8% first-month charge) for up to 4 months, renewable, and your bottles are stored securely until you redeem them.
