If you are unsure of what kind of perfume to buy, you may want to visit your nearest fragrances outlet to give you an idea of the fragrances that will suit your character and the season. If you are looking for your signature fragrance, you may want to shop first and try on some fragrances on yourself. There is a misconception that if a perfume smells good on somebody, it also smells good on you.
There are four major categories from which you can choose your scent from. You can choose from fresh, woody, floral or oriental. Fresh scents are of citrus, green or grass leaves and marine. Woody notes are those of woods and moss while florals are of flower scents like gardenia, rose, jasmine and the like. For starters, you may try the Ghost perfume which has a very feminine casual scent. Orientals are more of the spices like vanilla, nutmeg and patchouli. There are also other scents that may add a unique scent to your perfume like tobacco or old books.
Getting your signature fragrance is very cruel as this is the scent by which you will be associated with. This is your everyday scent for work or even for dinner with friends. When choosing your perfume from fragrances outlets, bringing someone along with you. Aside from your smell and that of the attendant, you may want to ask opinions from your friends who would smell it on you most of the time. Allow the perfume to stay on you for a few minutes to allow the base notes to dry down.
Looking for fragments which are rare and are difficult to find are best searched on the internet or specialty stores. There are packages from online fragrances outlets when you buy a certain brand or fragrance. Vials for samples are provided if you have purchased perfumes for a certain amount on one website. There are even auctions for hard to find fragrances, especially vintages. Collecting these rare finds may prove to be difficult in the process but is sure to be a treat for your senses.
Every season requires different scents and you may shop your fragrances outlet every season to check on their new offerings. Fragrances for spring are usually floral and woody. For summer, light tropical or citrus scents are recommended while fall and winter seasons require a stronger scent that does not overpowered with the cold weather.
Whatever notes and scents that you may choose, it is important that you try it on yourself first. You may also check on independent perfume makers or fragrances outlets online for more information.
