Choosing among fragrance samples & discovery sets can be tricky: do you want a lot that broadens the search, or a single fragrance choice you can name before buying? These two formats answer that question differently. Focus on how the samples are selected and how much the format costs.
Quick verdict
Pick Women's High End Designer Fragrance Sample Lot when you want a lot-style purchase with an assortment format. Pick Bloomingdale's Fragrance Discovery Edit when you want a single entry from a discovery edit. The listed-price difference is $17.66, so the choice comes down to whether you prefer a mixed lot or a targeted fragrance selection.

Where each one wins
- Spray-format sampling: Women's High End Designer Fragrance Sample Lot is the match because its attributes specify a spray formulation. That makes the format clear for shoppers who specifically want perfume samples in spray form.
- Travel-size discovery: Bloomingdale's Fragrance Discovery Edit is the match because its size type is travel size. Choose it when that compact sample format is more important than receiving a lot.
Product notes
Women's High End Designer Fragrance Sample Lot
The strongest reason to choose the lot is the scent range named in its profile: bergamot, cherry, citrus, floral, jasmine, lavender, oud, patchouli, rose, sandalwood, vanilla, white musk, and ylang ylang. That list gives shoppers concrete scent directions to explore without requiring a single fragrance name up front. Its condition is new with box, matching the presentation indicated for the lot. The limitation is consistency: the assortment is randomly selected, and sampler volume varies between 1ml and 2ml. You therefore give up control over the exact fragrances and the amount in each vial. Choose it when exploring the listed scent range matters more than specifying every sample in advance.
Bloomingdale's Fragrance Discovery Edit
Bloomingdale's edit suits a shopper who wants the fragrance name to guide the purchase. The available choices include Penhaligon's Luna, MIND GAMES Queening, Mancera French Riviera, Vilhelm Parfumerie Mango Skin, Le Labo Santal 33, Byredo Desert Dawn, House of Bo Casa Blanca Parfum, and Initio Parfums Privés Narcotic Delight. That named menu is a concrete reason to choose the edit over a randomly assembled lot. Its limitation is the individual format: the samples are sold separately, and the condition is new without box. Choose it when selecting one fragrance name matters more than receiving a mixed group in one lot.
Final choice by use case
- For assortment-led browsing: Choose Women's High End Designer Fragrance Sample Lot. The lot format and randomly selected mix suit shoppers who want variety in the selection process.
- For a deliberate fragrance choice: Choose Bloomingdale's Fragrance Discovery Edit. Its individually sold samples and named options make the selection more targeted.
- For the lower listed price: Bloomingdale's is USD 12.22 versus USD 29.88 for the designer sample lot, a USD 17.66 gap. The lot is the choice when its assortment approach justifies the higher listed price.
