Choosing A Perfume
Wear the Right Perfume
Wearing the right perfume is just as important as wearing a colour that suits you!,many people will just squirt on a scent just because they think it smells nice from the bottle or on the sample paper that you find on many fragrance counters. When making this choice you need to give the notes time to develop,this can be up to an hour.The initial spray which contains the top notes is the first thing that you will smell,sometimes you can be immediately put off or can think this is nice,these normally fade between 5-30 minutes after spraying and you are then presented with the middle or heart note which forms the main basis of the fragrance and will often define the type,these often appear 10-30 mins from spraying,following these you have the base notes which is the foundation of the fragrance,Do you, after a few hours when your fragrance seems to have disappeared get this lovely aroma?these are the base notes and depending on the fragrance strength these can last for hours.
Where will you wear it and what for?
When choosing s fragrance,firstly decide where you will be wearing it, be it work or daytime wear you may want to choose something light and fresh, For evening wear a heavier oriental fragrance is good.But at the end of the day it is down to personal choice. We can often be swayed by the glossy advert in magazine or the wonderful display at the fragrance counter or the great special offer with ££s off the RRP and end up with an expensive mistake. When seeking out a new fragrance get into the habit of having a spray of a tester fragrance,dont spray on the sample card spray it on your wrists, leave it a while and see what you think.
Buying fragrance for others
Choosing a perfume can seem daunting,buying for someone else is another story,gentlemen always remember one thing!, the lovely Chantilly fragrance that smelt so good on your mother/gran/aunt may not be well received by your wife/girlfriend or intended.Find out what types of smells she likes,are they floral or fresh etc?,Knowing that can help you find something suitable and that will hopefully be well received.
