My secret for getting Phlur Soft Spot delivered to France while Sephora is still out of stock

Why Phlur Soft Spot is the obsession of 2026

I have spent the last few weeks watching my TikTok feed explode with reviews of the Phlur Soft Spot Eau de Parfum. If you follow us trends, you already know that Phlur has a knack for creating scents that feel like a second skin, but Soft Spot has taken things to a level I haven't seen since the original Missing Person craze. It is described as a warm, intimate amber-musk that everyone in France seems to want, yet no one can find locally.

While my local Sephora in Paris has a waitlist that stretches into the summer of 2026, I noticed that the US Sephora and the official Phlur website actually have it in stock. I didn't want to wait months for a restock that might never happen, so I decided to take matters into my own hands by shopping directly from the source.

How I shopped US stores from my living room in Paris

The biggest hurdle for me was that US retailers often don't ship liquid fragrances directly to France due to complex regulations. I found that the easiest way to shop us store options was to use a freight forwarder. By using a tax-free us address, I was able to purchase the perfume from the Phlur website without paying US sales tax, which was a nice little bonus for my budget.

If you are curious about the technical side, I followed a simple step-by-step guide on their site to set up my suite. Once I had my address, I just checked out as if I lived in Oregon or Delaware. It felt like a bit of a life hack, especially seeing the 'out of stock' banners on all the European sites.

Shipping estimates for your Phlur haul

I know many of you are worried about the cost of moving a small bottle across the Atlantic. To help you plan, I have put together some estimates based on my own package. You can also use a shipping calculator to get a more precise figure for your specific location in France.

A quick note on shipping perfumes internationally

One thing I learned is that perfume is considered a "Dangerous Good" in the aviation world because of the alcohol content. When I checked the international shipping rates, I made sure to account for the small surcharge that comes with shipping flammable liquids. My package forwarding service handled the specialized labeling for me, so I didn't have to worry about the paperwork. It is much easier to let the experts handle the hazmat documentation than to try to figure it out yourself.

The lazy way I handled French import duties and paperwork

I hate dealing with customs forms. My "lazy method" involved choosing a shipping option that allowed me to see the import duties upfront. In France, we have to deal with VAT (TVA) on items coming from outside the EU. By using a parcel forwarding service, I could see exactly what the customs tax would be before the package even left the US.

You might also like to check our guide on import tax if you are planning to buy more than just a bottle of perfume, as combining multiple items into one box can often lower your overall shipping fees.

Why a freight forwarder changed my shopping habits

I used comGateway for this specific Phlur purchase because I wanted a reliable way to forward packages without the stress of them getting stuck in transit. The process was so hands-off that I almost forgot I was ordering from another continent until the delivery truck arrived at my door in Lyon.

If you are tired of seeing "This item does not ship to your country," I highly recommend trying this route. It is the most efficient way I have found to stay ahead of the popular products list without having to wait for local distributors to catch up with the 2026 trends. Now, every time someone asks what I'm wearing, I get to tell them it's a scent they can't even get in France yet.
