Please compare duty free
Where is it better to shop in duty-free - in Boryspil or Dubai? Variety, prices... More interested in perfumery. Thanks.

I can’t say about dutiki, but Dubai itself has a huge selection of perfumes

In the Kiev dutik we constantly buy up perfumes. The prices are very good, there are sets that are not available in Kyiv at all, and they came across promotions more than once.

I also constantly “graze” in Kiev, it’s really cheaper there than in Kiev stores, even of an average hand (I’m not talking about Brocard), well, and there is an insignificant chance to run into a fake. But quite recently I read right there, on Turpravda, that the Borispol "dyutik" is considered expensive among its own kind in Europe. Even more expensive than in expensive Emirates?
Thank you for reminding me of the choice in Dubai itself, I forgot where I was going))))) But I would like to legitimately carry everything in my hand luggage to the cabin, otherwise everything in the suitcase is always crumpled, deformed ... already the mood drops when you start at home get everything out of there...

Based on the experience of traveling and comparing prices in duty free in Dubai, I’ll definitely say that the airport has an INCREDIBLE space occupied by a shop, you can wander around for hours, it won’t be boring, because you can buy everything, you’ll see this world scale! At the expense of perfumery, that’s where I always I see novelties and the latest of all kinds of brands. I am for Dubai duty. And there are no problems at all about carrying it with you on a plane in hand luggage, you are flying home and your luggage has already been handed over for a long time ... the main thing is that your native customs does not find fault. !

Yes please!
For perfumes, cosmetics, alcohol, of course, it’s cheaper (bags, leather, household appliances, telephones, jewelry, etc., etc.) than in city stores. How much cheaper, I won’t say, I don’t have the habit of walking with a calculator and counting. fries are cheaper. For example, I even bought washing powder there - the quality is excellent! And then, if you see exactly the perfume, your favorite, which is instantly dismantled in your city, and here it stands peacefully and waits for you, well, of course you will buy and you will not regret the money and somehow it would never occur to me to calculate the difference in cost))) And my friend bought herself such beautiful jewelry that I’m sure I won’t see anyone else. Therefore, leave some money for the way back and have a great shopping!

Definitely - buy in Dubai, prices are in dollars, and in Kyiv they are the same, but in euros, that's the difference for you.

lanacuba Firstly, there are no taxes in the Emirates. Therefore, there is no need to talk about any "a priori". Emirates is a complete duty free, because once again I repeat there is no duty free there.
Secondly, Oksana, if you fly, for example, from "Natalie Tours", which is the cheapest in Ukraine at prices, then you will arrive and depart from Terminal "2" Fly Dubai, and you simply will not see "INCREDIBLE" (I quote lanacuba) space there, dutik 3 times!!! less than in terminal F of Boryspil, and the choice of cosmetics there is extremely scarce, so check which terminal you are arriving at, this is important!
Third, "Coco Mademoiselle" (Chanel) and GIO (Armani) turned out to be cheaper in Kyiv. Green Lacoste in Dubai Mall (in a store like "Brocard"), again in a dutik Neither Mademoiselle nor Lacoste was found.
In Kiev djutik liter Baileys 13 euros (although it is written that the action), in Moscow 16 euros, in Dubai 22 dollars. But that may be the case with alcohol.
And for Ukraine, everything that is cheaper than 200 euros is considered legal when imported. Everything bought in Duty Free is easily carried in hand luggage if it does not exceed the weight limit (usually 10kg). In Kyiv, alcohol is additionally packed in a sealed self-sealing bag, in Dubai it is simply in a bag. )))

I bought in Dubai (I don’t remember in which mall) the Lancome toner. In duty-free in Dubai, the same foundation turned out to be a third cheaper. Plush camels were also cheaper in duty free. and gold is more expensive.

Not for everything. And most importantly, depending on where. Technique watches and gold are definitely cheaper at Nasser Square. When compared with the prices of malls, it is cheaper in a dutik (perhaps because of this, one gets the impression that they are cheap). Souvenirs are also cheaper compared to malls, and by a lot, but if you go to Deira (also to Nasser Square), then there is such a store as "Gift Land" Souvenir prices are cheaper than in dutik. For example, a Burj Khalifa model costs 9 dirhams there, 15 in the market, in malls and on layouts up to 20. T-shirts with inscriptions from 9-95 dirhams. I saw such prices only in the market in Bur Dubai, and then only in one shop.
Emirati malls have high rents, so there products that do not cover the recommended price may be more expensive. But don't rely entirely on duty free. If you have a departure from terminal 1, there is really a real Klondike for shopping, terminal 2 is the complete opposite.
