Why are perfumes discontinued?

There are several reasons why a perfume is discontinued, but usually, there are two cases:

Decreased sales: A perfume is discontinued when its sales decrease because it is no longer profitable and, therefore, production ceases.
Out of fashion: The world of perfumery evolves (like everything else in life). Trends come and go, and although there are still a number of classic perfumes considered timeless and that never go out of style; many of them eventually disappear because they no longer generate interest among most of the public.
