I don't know if you're like me, but I'm always disappointed in duty free purchase. Prices are not that low (except for cigarettes), your tax savings are often compensated by the mark-up of the store and since you have 30 minutes to kill (23 minutes exactly according to CDG airport (Paris airport)) you tend to buy anything, just to keep yourself busy, even if you need and extra perfume... I photographed this outlet on my way to Nice, where I am at the moment, but of course within France there is no such thing as Duty Free. Anyway, it still makes a good photo...
The lines of the entrance do make for an interesting reflection of sorts in the floor.
ReplyDeleteLet's see... I don't drink, smoke, or have any need for perfume, so that takes care of a substantial amount of what's in a duty free shop...
I like the reflection too. I admit that I do buy Cuban cigars for two guys who are pretty happy to get them. As for perfume, I can order my YSL Paris for much less online!
