FRAGRANCE TIPS FOR SPRING 2012~

Regarding what goes into making a perfume.

Here are some tips and ideas I follow when I create Custom Perfumes for clients:

We determine your lifestyle – are you outdoorsy, casual, or sophisticated? It’s important to know one’s lifestyle in order to determine the fragrance category you like…

  • Our Strongest sense is our Sense of Smell – but it’s the most ignored – so it’s important to smell often and ‘train’ your nose to explore the magic and mystery of different aromas.
  • The four MAIN fragrance familites/categories are Fresh, Floral, Woodsy and Oriental – know which categories you like so that you can find scents that you like.
  • Don’t be afraid to explore new ideas – so many people say that they think Florals are old fashioned – but if you have an open mind, explore them!You might just fall in love with a spicy floral fragrance1
  • Don’t buy a fragrance because it smells great on your friend – try it first on you. All fragrances react differently because of one’s own body chemistry.
  • There is nothing nicer than having the opportunity to reflect one’s own individuality and personality by having your Own fragrance! Today there are fairly reasonable ways in which to create your own perfume that don’t have to cost thousands of dollars. Design Your Own Kits are available from $85.00
  • Don’t just spritz perfume at the nape of your neck – apply it from the bottom up! Fragrance rises, and the body heat warms it up. So apply it at the pulse points – at the ankles, behind the knees, inbetween the thighs, at the bosom, the wrist and the nape of the neck- the more it warms up the more the fragrance diffuses and it ‘envelops’ you!
  • Store fragrance in a cool place
  • WEAR FRAGRANCE OFTEN and LET IT’S BEAUTY ENVELOP YOU!

We would love to hear from you!
