How to Choose a Perfume

How to Choose a Perfume

Keep it simple


Avoid overextending yourself. When you try to smell too many scents at once, your olfactory senses will go into overdrive and they will all blend together. They only do two to three tests at most before taking a break.

 

At-Home Fragrance Testing



Test the fragrance at home if you're looking for a signature perfume that you'll be happy to wear every day. I mentioned to previously how a smell can take some time to expose its notes and how it basically goes through layers outside of just in-store.

Because of this, it's crucial to apply the scent to your skin and wear it for a short while. So that you can really experience the scent rather than rapidly making an opinion in-store. You can receive an initial impression of a fragrance using those tiny paper testers that are available in stores.

 

Don't Feel Pressed.

 

Don't feel it necessary to find a fragrance that will act differently from season to season because your body reacts differently from season to season. Lighter scents can appear more trustworthy in the summer because your body is warmer than it is in the winter. It will take a little longer to reveal all of the notes.
So you may have a couple of go twos that you rotate throughout the year, which is fine.

 

How and where to apply your fragrance for the best results

When your skin is warm and moist, it is the best time to apply a fragrance. After a morning shower is ideal.

This will help to intensify the fragrance and even extend its longevity. You've probably heard this before, but you should spray your perfume on your pulse points. The reason for this is that this is where warmth emanates from your body, and this is also where you can feel your pulse.

 

So, which option should you take? Are you the type who does not want to change? If so, use what you've always used, which will no longer provide you with the pleasure you once had. However, if you are open-minded, broaden your horizons and try something new from another group or different perfumes from the same time-tested category.
