One of the nice things about returning to Vietnam is that you can purchase Duty Free items at the Saigon Duty Free Shop for 5 working days. You will be amazed at how cheap items there are compared to Citimart or Coop Supermarket. I made two visits with friends to the Saigon Duty Free Shop this week in District 1.
Your Vietnamese friends will love you if you take them with you. There are a good collection of duty free cologne and perfume there, a far cry from the fake perfume and cologne that are sold at Diamond Plaza, Parkson or Zen Plaza.

I can’t believe people are allowed to come back inside to shop for Duty Free after they leave the airport?! what kind of security is that? I’m glad to see that Chanel is in there. How about Dior, Yves saint Laurant , and Shiseido make- up? in case when I go to Vietnam, I can get some there.
Hi,
Just for the sake of fairness – Diamond and Parkson do (should) not sell fake perfumes, all retailers are official representatives of the brands.

Sumimasen. : )
When you said Saigon Duty free shop, I assumed that it was inside the airport like all major airports around the world.
You must have baby skin to need baby oil. 🙂 Can I call you ” em be “???
I hope you don’t buy anything from that Vietnamese business friend of your. Maybe, I have been living in the US too long, but it still doesn’t make it right. That is just wrong! This is one of the reason why I’m an anti- social person.
FYI, DP and Parkson work with turnover share mainly (with not too high minimal rental), only the shop-in-shops might pay sqm rental…
cool, thanks for the info Kevin.
There’s a Shiseido store in District 1. Even Clea de Peau (spelling?) I forgot the name of the street though. It’s opposite the big hotel. I forgot the name too 🙂 Sorry!!!
