In a world of fragrances it can be bewildering to decide on the right scent for you. A huge variety of manufacturers from traditional brands to newer glossy and celebrity backed scents now invest heavily in marketing to the fragrance consumer. In this article I will give some tips and techniques to employ so you can decide which fragrance is right for you.

If you are in a fragrance store deciding on a number of perfumes then try not to test more than a few fragrances at one time. It may seem obvious, but it is very difficult to maintain an independent and impartial opinion of the fragrances you are evaluating if you allow too many to mix. Furthermore, fragrances should often be allowed to develop over time. Elements within the perfume react differently to being exposed to the air, if they are allowed to ‘breath’ over time their full aroma will be allowed to develop. For this reason, testing a number of perfumes at one time can colour or taint your impression of a fragrance as you wear it. Its best not to rush evaluating fragrances, cramming your decision into a single afternoon could lead you invest in a fragrance not quite right for you.

You may notice a friend or colleagues fragrance with envy and enquire about its origins with a view to buying it for yourself – but a word of warning. Fragrances will react differently for different people, just because a perfume works for one person does not mean it will be perfect for you. Use the same testing approach you would for any other fragrance.

Decide on what type of fragrance you want before browsing – are you intending to wear this around the office or for going out socialising? You want to ensure you perfume projects the right message at the right time.

Once you have decided on your fragrance then buy from a reputable fragrance dealer. The last thing you want is to in invest what you believe to be the fragrance you selected, only for it to be a cheap imitation. Buying from a reputable, well known retailer will give you confidence in your purchase.

Choosing a perfume can be an exciting and gripping experience. With the right approach you can select a fragrance that will accompany you over many years. Selecting the right perfume will be one decision you know is right every day.
