"A woman who does not use perfume has no future." PAUL VALERY, FRENCH POET AND WRITER.
Most perfume counter consultants have received extensive training in helping customers make perfume purchases. This involves making suggestions and offering advice according to their preferences.
However, the following guidelines can help you select a perfume that complements your olfactory taste. To fully enjoy the aroma of a perfume, wear it for at least an hour to enable the top, middle, and base notes to emerge. Then, assess the perfume's suitability based on your lifestyle, the time of day, and the situations you may wear it.
When trying on perfumes, especially lighter ones like Eau de Cologne, you should apply them to your wrists' pulse points rather than rubbing them in.
It is generally not advised to try a perfume right after engaging in strenuous exercise or when you are sick with a fever because these conditions would most likely cause your body temperature to rise and alter how the perfume behaves on your skin.
It will be challenging for you to distinguish between two smells worn simultaneously when evaluating perfumes with comparable kinds or from the same fragrance family.
You will find it simpler to evaluate up to six fragrances if they are from distinct families. The test will go better if you wear less. It's also a good idea to arrange the samples apart from one another. Testing different perfumes is best done on opposite wrists and upper arms.
Your choice of perfume should be enticing, enjoyable, and dramatic. In the day, milder fragrances are more appropriate for wearing, while heavier perfumes are better for wearing in the evening. Fragrances with flowery and fresh notes are popular in the summer and other warm seasons. Richer and more subdued fragrances work better in the winter and other colder months.
A perfume's happiness and pleasure are incredibly individualized. Every perfume wearer is different and special, so what works better for one person might not work for another.
