Many beauty gurus will say that someone’s
outfit can never be fully complete without the perfect scent. Much like style,
scent is a very personal thing and can also be interchangeable when it comes to
different moods, looks, and occasions.
This piece will guide the reader through
how to pick an ideal perfume based on scent preferences and suitable for any
occasion.
Why Wear Perfume?
Wearing perfume has many benefits
from boosting confidence to
enhancing mood. Originally, perfume was used to keep unpleasant body odors at
bay, but now perfume has a much more aesthetic contribution and is used to tie
in the role that someone is playing for the day. For example, there could be a
specific scent that gets someone in the mindset for work and a different scent
that prepares someone for a date. Perfumes now complement a lot of daily life,
and can also, simply make people feel good.
Find Individual Scents that Encourage a Feel-Good Mood
Depending on what event the perfume is
being used for, it is important to find individual scents that can be used as a
guide when trying out perfumes. For example, if someone absolutely adores the
smell of roses, this might be an excellent component for a favorable perfume.
Maybe mint makes another feel energized, or
the smell of chopped herbs is invigorating, which would indicate that herb
components to a perfume might be an ideal note to a personalized perfume.
Whatever scent it is, take some time to find out the scents that really appeals
and what emotions they evoke. This is good base research for choosing a perfume
for any occasion.
Perfume and Different Occasions
There is a widely held notion that there is
a perfect perfume for any occasion.
For example, something light and fresh is often hailed as a daytime perfume.
Something fruity and floral is often classed as a great, flirty date perfume
and for the evening. A heady woody, spiced perfume mimics the depth of the
night.
Because different scents can evoke
different moods, this is also worth considering in making the right choice for
the occasion, as universal scents could have a similar effect on everyone — i.e.
vanilla is soothing, grapefruit is uplifting.
Sometimes choosing a perfume can just be as
easy as following instinct, but it can get a bit expensive if someone has to
purchase a full bottle to see how it makes them feel throughout the day. This
is where scentmagic.com is a fantastic option – a
perfume subscription service that allows perfume lovers to try the most famous
scents for a fraction of the price.
Wait for Scent to Settle on the Skin
Something important about picking the perfect
perfume is patience. Seeing how a perfume wears on the skin throughout the day
is vital to finding the perfect match, as the notes all blend together and then
fade throughout the day.
Another tip is to dab the perfume on the
wrist and do not rub it together, as this can bruise the notes. Simply dab and
wait, then smell all the notes unfurl.
