obsolession

A fanatical interest in outdated items and/or technology.

Truth be told, obsolession isn't necessarily always an invalid/unwise practice --- if you "keep an eye on the trends" and then wait till some item you want is no longer "current", you may be able to purchase it for pennies on the dollar, or perhaps even get it for free if a retailer or company is simply tossing all its old stock.

Refers to when da basics or aromas of a particular concept or substance are so very yesterday.

Perfumes are notorious for planned obsolessence as new scents are created in da labs.
