How to choose the perfect perfume fragrance for you: tips

Scents have the power to evoke emotions, bring back memories, and create impressions. They can also become an integral part of your personality, reflect your mood, or emphasize your style.

However, choosing a perfume can seem like a daunting task, as the market offers many options. That's why Hypebeast has shared some tips to help you find your perfect fragrance.

Test kits

Before you buy a big bottle of perfume, get yourself a test set that has several small bottles of different scents.

Apply the perfume to the skin

In any case, you'll have to try a few perfumes before you find one that works for you. Also, remember that often fragrances don't smell the same on test strips as they do on your skin, so spray it on your wrist and smell it again after an hour.

Analyze your current perfume collection

If you're looking to expand your fragrance collection or try something new, try looking through your own bottles and finding patterns between them that will help you understand your overall preferences.

Refine your preferences

Before looking for the perfect perfume, it's worth identifying which scent families you are naturally drawn to. Maybe you like sweet scents, or more sour, floral, etc.

Also, understand what notes you don't like. This will allow you to avoid wasting time testing a range of fragrances.

Focus on mood or atmosphere

Oddly enough, scents can create moods, and so they can be categorized as cheerful, optimistic, mysterious, moody, etc. Choosing fragrances by notes can be tricky, as most scents we smell have many odors mixed in them. However, if you focus on the atmosphere, it can narrow down the range of perfumes significantly.

Find out more about your favorite brand or perfumer's signature style

When you start researching the topic of perfume, you will see that every brand has a signature style, just like every perfumer. Read reviews and descriptions of their most famous perfumes to see if their atmosphere suits you.
