	The condensed consolidated balance sheet of Perfumania Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company") as of January 31, 2015, which has been derived from our audited financial statements as of and for the year ended January 31, 2015, and the accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements, prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. The financial information presented herein, which is not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full current fiscal year, reflects all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2015.
	Due to the seasonality of the Company’s business, with the most significant activity occurring from September through December each year, the results of operations for the thirteen weeks ended May 2, 2015 (also referred to as the "first quarter of fiscal 2015") are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year.
	The Company is an independent, national, vertically integrated wholesale distributor and specialty retailer of perfumes and fragrances that conducts business through six wholly-owned operating subsidiaries; Perfumania, Inc. (“Perfumania”), Quality King Fragrance, Inc. (“QFG”), Scents of Worth, Inc. ("SOW"), Perfumania.com, Inc. (“Perfumania.com”), Parlux Fragrances, LLC ("Parlux") and Five Star Fragrance Company, Inc. (“Five Star”). We operate in two industry segments, wholesale distribution and specialty retail sales of designer fragrances and related products.
	Our wholesale businesses include QFG, Parlux and Five Star. QFG distributes designer fragrances to mass market retailers, drug and other chain stores, retail wholesale clubs, traditional wholesalers, and other distributors throughout the United States. It sells principally to retailers such as Kohl's, Marshalls, Nordstrom Rack, Ross Stores, Sears, Wal-Mart and Walgreens. The Company’s manufacturing divisions, Parlux and Five Star, own and license designer and other fragrance brands that are sold to regional and national department stores, including Belk, Bon Ton, Boscovs, Dillards, Macy's, Nordstrom and Stage Stores, international distributors, on military bases throughout the United States, by QFG and through the Company's retail business which is discussed below. Parlux also fulfills a selection of fragrances for several online retailers, shipping directly to their customers and billing the retailers. Five Star also manufactures, on behalf of Perfumania, the Jerome Privee product line, which includes bath and body products and which is sold exclusively in Perfumania's retail stores. All manufacturing operations of Parlux and Five Star are outsourced.
	Our retail business is conducted through the following subsidiaries:
	•Perfumania, a specialty retailer of fragrances and related products,
	•SOW, which sells fragrances in retail stores on a consignment basis, and
	•Perfumania.com, an Internet retailer of fragrances and other specialty items.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS [Abstract]
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
	In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, intended to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs. The guidance requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with the presentation for debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this ASU. The guidance is effective fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2015, and must be applied on a retrospective basis with early adoption permitted. This guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
	In May 2014, the FASB issued ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC Topic 605 Revenue Recognition, including most industry-specific revenue recognition guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. This guidance requires that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services, and expands the related disclosure requirements. The new standard was originally scheduled to be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. In April 2015, the FASB proposed an update to this rule which would defer its effective date for one year. The proposed update stipulates the new standard would be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods therein, with an option to adopt the standard on the originally scheduled effective date. In April 2015, the FASB issued an exposure draft deferring the effective date for public companies to years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early application permitted.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this new guidance may have on its consolidated financial statements.

	The following table provides information related to goodwill and intangible assets (in thousands). Intangible assets are included in intangible and other assets, net on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of May 2, 2015 and January 31, 2015:

	In accordance with US GAAP, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized, but rather tested for impairment at least annually by comparing the estimated fair values to their carrying values.
	Trademarks, including tradenames and owned licenses having finite lives, are amortized over their respective lives to their estimated residual values and are also reviewed for impairment in accordance with accounting standards when changes in circumstances indicate the assets’ values may be impaired. Customer relationships are amortized over the expected period of benefit and license agreements are amortized over the remaining contractual term. Impairment testing is based on a review of forecasted operating cash flows and the profitability of the related brand to determine its fair value. There were no triggering events during the thirteen weeks ended May 2, 2015 that would indicate potential impairment and the requirement to review the carrying value of goodwill and intangible assets.
	Amortization expense associated with intangible assets subject to amortization is included in depreciation and amortization on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. Amortization expense for intangible assets subject to amortization was $1.1 million for the thirteen weeks ended May 2, 2015 and May 3, 2014. As of May 2, 2015, estimated future amortization expense associated with intangible assets subject to amortization is as follows (in thousands):
	Fiscal Year		Amortization

	The 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2010 Plan”) provides for equity-based awards to the Company’s employees, directors and consultants. Under the 2010 Plan, the Company initially reserved 1,000,000 shares of common stock for issuance. This number automatically increases on the first trading day of each fiscal year beginning with fiscal 2011, by an amount equal to 1.5% of the shares of common stock outstanding as of the last trading day of the immediately preceding fiscal year; accordingly, 1,961,898 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance as of May 2, 2015. The Company previously had two stock option plans which expired on October 31, 2010. No further awards will be granted under these plans, although all options previously granted and outstanding will remain outstanding until they are either exercised or forfeited. As of May 2, 2015, 920,000 stock options have been granted pursuant to the 2010 Plan.

	The Company has a revolving Senior Credit Facility with a syndicate of banks that is used for the Company’s general corporate purposes and those of its subsidiaries, including working capital and capital expenditures. The maximum borrowing amount under the Senior Credit Facility is $175 million and the termination date is April 2019. Under this facility, which does not require amortization of principal, revolving loans may be drawn, repaid and reborrowed up to the amount available under a borrowing base calculated with reference to specified percentages of the Company’s credit card and trade receivables and inventory, which may be reduced by the lender in its reasonable discretion. The Company must maintain excess availability under the facility of at least $10 million. As of May 2, 2015, the Company had $66.5 million of net availability which includes $25 million for letters of credit.
	Interest under the Senior Credit Facility is at variable rates plus specified margins that are determined based upon the Company’s excess availability from time to time. The Company is also required to pay monthly commitment fees based on the unused amount of the Senior Credit Facility and a monthly fee with respect to outstanding letters of credit. As of May 2, 2015, the interest rate on LIBOR Rate borrowings was 2.2% and the interest rate on base rate borrowings was 4.3%.
	All obligations of the Company related to the Senior Credit Facility are secured by first priority perfected security interests in all personal and real property owned by the Company, including without limitation 100% (or, in the case of excluded foreign subsidiaries, 66%) of the outstanding equity interests in the subsidiaries. The Company is subject to customary limitations on its ability to, among other things, pay dividends and make distributions, make investments and enter into joint ventures, and dispose of assets. The Company was in compliance with all financial and operating covenants as of May 2, 2015.
	In addition, the Company has outstanding unsecured debt obligations as follows:
	(i)a promissory note in the principal amount of $35 million, (the “QKD Note”) held by Quality King Distributors, Inc. ("Quality King"), which provides for payment of principal in quarterly installments between July 31, 2019 and October 31, 2022, with a final installment on October 31, 2022 of the remaining balance, and payment of interest in quarterly installments commencing on January 31, 2011 at the then current senior debt rate, as defined in the Senior Credit Facility, plus 1% per annum;
	(ii)promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $85.4 million held by six estate trusts established by Glenn, Stephen and Arlene Nussdorf (the “Nussdorf Trust Notes”), which provide for payment of the principal in full on July 31, 2019 and payments of interest in quarterly installments commencing on July 31, 2012 at the then current senior debt rate plus 2% per annum; and
	(iii)    a promissory note in the principal amount of $5 million held by Glenn and Stephen Nussdorf (the “2004 Note”), which provided for payment in January 2009 and is currently in default because of the restrictions on payment described below, resulting in an increase of 2% in the nominal interest rate, which is the prime rate plus 1%.
	These notes are subordinated to the Senior Credit Facility. No principal may be paid on any of them until three months after the Senior Credit Facility terminates and is paid in full, and payment of interest is subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, including the Company’s maintaining excess availability under the Senior Credit Facility of the greater of $17.5 million or 17.5% of the borrowing base certificate after giving effect to the payment, and a fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined in the credit agreement, of 1.1:1.0. Interest expense on these notes was approximately $1.3 million and $1.6 million for the thirteen weeks ended May 2, 2015 and May 3, 2014, respectively, and is included in interest expense on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. No payments of principal or interest have been made on the QKD Note or the Nussdorf Trust Notes. On the 2004 Note, no payments of principal have been made and no interest payments have been made since October 2008. Accrued interest payable due at May 2, 2015 and January 31, 2015 on the Nussdorf Trust Notes, the QKD Note, and the 2004 Note was approximately $40.8 million and $39.5 million, respectively, and is included in other long-term liabilities on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of May 2, 2015 and January 31, 2015, respectively.

ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES [Abstract]
Accounting for Income Taxes	ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES
	The Company conducts business throughout the United States, Puerto Rico and the United States Virgin Islands and, as a result, files income tax returns in the U.S. Federal and various state jurisdictions, Puerto Rico and the United States Virgin Islands. In the normal course of business the Company is subject to examinations in these jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. Federal, state, local or Puerto Rico income tax examinations for fiscal years prior to 2008. State and foreign income tax returns are generally subject to examination for a period of three to five years after filing of the respective return. The state impact of any Federal changes remains subject to examination by various states for a period of up to one year after formal notification to the states.
	The Company continues to provide a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty as to when business conditions will improve sufficiently to enable it to utilize its deferred tax assets. As a result, the Company did not record a Federal or state tax benefit on its operating loss for the thirteen weeks ended May 2, 2015.
	During the thirteen weeks ended May 2, 2015, there were no changes to the liability for income tax associated with uncertain tax positions. The Company accrues interest related to unrecognized tax benefits as well as any related penalties in the income tax provision in its condensed consolidated statements of operations, which is consistent with the recognition of these items in prior reporting periods. The accrual for interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as of May 2, 2015 and January 31, 2015 was not significant.
	The Company does not anticipate any material adjustments relating to unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months; however, the ultimate outcome of tax matters is uncertain and unforeseen results can occur.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Common Share	BASIC AND DILUTED NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
	Basic net loss per common share has been computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
	Diluted net loss per common share includes, in periods in which they are dilutive, the effect of those potentially dilutive securities where the average market price of the common stock exceeds the exercise prices for the respective periods.
	During the thirteen weeks ended May 2, 2015 and May 3, 2014 there were 7,516,492 and 7,507,267, respectively, potential shares of common stock related to stock options and warrants which were excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation because the effect of including these potential shares was antidilutive.

	The Company applies authoritative accounting guidance regarding fair value and disclosures as it applies to financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. The guidance defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability on the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:
	Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets (the fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to
	Level 1 inputs);
	Level 2: Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
	Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data and require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions
	As of May 2, 2015, the Company had no material financial assets or liabilities measured on a recurring basis at fair value. The Company measures certain assets at fair value on a non-recurring basis, specifically long-lived assets evaluated for impairment. No such impairments were recorded during the thirteen weeks ended May 2, 2015 and May 3, 2014.
	The fair values of the Company’s assets and liabilities that qualify as financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, short-term debt, and accrued expenses, are carried at cost, which approximates fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The reported amounts of long-term obligations approximate fair value, given management’s evaluation of the instruments’ current rates compared to market rates of interest and other factors.

Segment Information	SEGMENT INFORMATION
	The Company operates in two industry segments, wholesale distribution and specialty retail sales of designer fragrance and related products. Management reviews segment information by segment and on a consolidated basis each month. Retail sales include sales through Perfumania retail stores, the SOW consignment business and the Company’s internet site, Perfumania.com. Wholesale sales include sales through QFG, Parlux and Five Star to unrelated customers. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2015. The Company’s chief operating decision maker, who is its Chief Executive Officer, assesses segment performance by reference to gross profit. Each of the segments has its own assets, liabilities, revenues and cost of goods sold. While each segment has certain unallocated operating expenses, these expenses are not reviewed by the chief operating decision maker on a segment basis, but rather on a consolidated basis. Financial information for these segments is summarized in the following table:

	The 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2010 Plan”) provides for equity-based awards to the Company’s employees, directors and consultants. Under the 2010 Plan, the Company initially reserved 1,000,000 shares of common stock for issuance. This number automatically increases on the first trading day of each fiscal year beginning with fiscal 2011, by an amount equal to 1.5% of the shares of common stock outstanding as of the last trading day of the immediately preceding fiscal year; accordingly, 1,961,898 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance as of May 2, 2015. The Company previously had two stock option plans which expired on October 31, 2010. No further awards will be granted under these plans, although all options previously granted and outstanding will remain outstanding until they are either exercised or forfeited. As of May 2, 2015, 920,000 stock options have been granted pursuant to the 2010 Plan.
