Tips for Picking the Right Perfume
What to Consider When You Shop for Perfume
Every woman should have her own fragrance – a signature of sorts that offers a subtle suggestion as to who you are. Are you an earth mother, deserving of a musk scent? Or, are roses more your style? Perhaps a blend of vanilla suits you. Fruity, floral or spicy, whatever your personality is, there’s a fragrance that complements it. The question is how do you find it? How do you shop for the right perfume?
As you search for the newest women’s fragrances, keep in mind that experts say flower-based scents of jasmine and orange remain popular, but spicier fragrances, such as those that are single-flower focused, create a bolder fragrance that suggests confidence.
As you shop fragrance options, try to match your personality with what the scent suggests. Are you the playful type? Try one of the whimsically packaged scents from Vera Wang, such as Lovestruck, or Prada’s Candy. The fun bottles, names and even the ad campaigns dictate the experience when wearing one of these brands. “Happiness” is among the fragrance trends these scents address.
If you are searching for perfume for a younger woman, she may prefer a more sugary scent, as the name of one of the most popular fragrances for teens suggests: Pink Sugar. It combines musk with raspberry and strawberry for a sweet scent that claims it’s fun and flirtatious to wear. Dior perfumes, in particular Miss Dior Cherie, has feminine notes of caramel popcorn and strawberry sorbet. Sweet and a bit sexy, it suits a playful woman.
For the optimist, there is 18 La Lune, in the d&g perfume line by Dolce & Gabbana. Described by the manufacturer as a “cosmic fresh and dazzling” fragrance, it’s for the dreamer in all of us.
A Classic scent like Chanel No. 5 never disappoints. Timeless and memorable, it evokes images of class and style.
If you exude femininity and sexual energy, Carolina Herrera has created 212 Sexy just for you. A sensuous blend of sandalwood, pepper, gardenias and more, it’s a hot fragrance that makes a statement about you. Also in this category is the Beyonce perfume line. Coty for Women has created Beyonce Heat, which it claims has an intoxicating blend of Sequoia, Caribbean Magnolia and other exotic scents.
Have fun trying out all these fragrances as you find the right perfume for you.
