Choosing a fragrance

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 upto 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.

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.
