Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

This Form 8-K/A is being filed to supplement the disclosure that Perfumania Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) provided in its Form 8-K filed on July 20, 2010 with respect to a change in the Company’s certifying accountant.

On July 15, 2010, the Company engaged J.H. Cohn, LLP to be the Company’s principal accountant to audit the Company’s financial statements and dismissed Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company’s principal accountant. The change in accountants was approved by the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors.

Deloitte & Touche LLP’s audit reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended January 30, 2010 and January 31, 2009 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and through the date hereof, there was no disagreement between the Company and Deloitte & Touche LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Deloitte & Touche LLP, would have caused Deloitte & Touche LLP to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in its audit report; and there were no reportable events, as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Company provided Deloitte & Touche LLP with a copy of the foregoing disclosures and requested that Deloitte & Touche LLP furnish the Company a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with them. A copy of Deloitte & Touche LLP’s response is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K/A.
