One of my friends works at Dillard's selling perfume, so I asked her questions about perfume. I just wanted to tell you all that the perfume might not smell good anymore, due to its age. Also things like temperature and Light affect the smell. You might buy 2 bottles of the same perfume from someone on the Internet, and the two bottles might smell totally different than each other, due to the perfumes being stored in different ways.
Also, if its alcohol based, there is a better chance of it not smelling good anymore. I hope anyone that orders some gets some that has been stored properly and still smells nice.

Thx for the heads. Yeah I kinda considered that possibility. And I'm willing to take the chance. I just need to stick to the afforable options and reliable sellers.

Ok so, the perfume does come in two different colors. Good to know! That will make my search for a bottle of 3121 a little easier. Thx for the info:)

Get Wild is on eBay at the moment. The guy claims it was given to him by prince himself.

It seems like every since Prince passed away, people from the 4 corners of the world, has some type of Prince interaction story. I don't know what the F to believe. So I've choosen to take the enormous amounts of claims with a huge grain of salt. Thx for the info though about the dude on Ebay. I'll stay clear of him.

On the topic of Prince's womens perfumes. The only one I'm familiar with is 3121. I personally haven't smelled the scent. Wondering if anyone owns 3121 or any of his other past perfumes. I'm thinking about purchasing a bottle from Prince's collection and I would appreciate any feedback and suggestion(s).

Thanks smile

I have the 3121 perfume and wear it often. It's nice, kind of musky. I bought a few a while back and will be selling one on ebay when I get around to it.

Sounds beautiful smile I'm looking forward to getting a bottle and trying it out.

$5 each? Thats awesome! I'm curious about the scent. Wish I had a chance to try it back in the day. Oh well. 3121 will have to do wink

I found a bottle of Get Wild on ebay. $72 plus $20 shipping hrmph 3121 will have to do for me as well lol

eek $72? I'm sorry, but thats ridiculous! 3121 is fine for me.

I remember when I went to find 3121 in stores and read it was sold at a certain dept. store exclusively. I went to the counter and asked the woman, she was an older lady, I said, "Do you carry Prince's cologne, 3121?" She looked at me in complete disgust and said, "I have NEVER carried ANYTHING, by Prince." I wanted to school her on why she should but I just chuckled to myself and walked away. Just the way she said it was like I wonder if she had something really personal against him. Perhaps a scorned lover, my head canon imagined.

Seriously? Gosh, I hate snotty sales people. With an attitude like that, I would have walked the F out of the store. Before I did, I would have told her exactly why I was talking my business elsewhere lol.
