How to Find the Signature Scent This Spring?
Did you know that there are different groups of fragrances with distinct personalities that can help you choose the right fragrance?
Knowing what you like overall and how best to get them to the forefront on your skin makes all the difference when shopping for your perfect spring scent.
Here are the Four Main Families of Fragrances;
Musk:
This may sound like a college wrestler’s under the washed armpit, but musk is in fact a scent for clean-laundry.
Smoky:
It may smell like a burning campfire, scented cedar chips, or a blunted match.
Citrusy:
Lime, lemon, oranges. It often feels a bit like a spa with a beautiful yoga studio.
Woody:
These scents can range from a sweet nutty taste (like pralines-and-cream ice cream), to sandalwood, spicy and dank like a musky old wardrobe (patchouli), to an old pencil No. 2 (cedarwood).
Green:
Includes the chalky aftertaste of a shot of wheatgrass on a spring morning as well as a dewy moss.
Floral:
Floral is all about white florals (gardenia, lilies, ylang, etc.), roses, violets, peonies.
Aquatic:
Where 7 Up meets bubble bath. These were initially aimed at the sporty, outdoor man, which consisted of new and marine-like aromas but quickly gained mass appeal.
Oriental:
Incense sticks. It may be mildly powdery with a touch of sugar or spice. it can be quite intense in aroma, but you can find some gorgeously light perfumes that give you an oriental hit.
The realm of smell is an emotional world. Smells are interwoven with your past memories and life’s emotional journey.
Similar to the songs that you heard when you were young those smelled can invoke memories of days gone by.
But while many people have a basic feel for the soundtrack of their lives, very few consciously think about something you might smell that can touch you emotionally
Shopping for the Right Scent
To create their own unique bouquet, fragrances are composed of three layers of the scent known as Top, Middle and Base note.
Each one has a different rate of evaporation so when you get home, what you smell at the beauty counter changes.
Top notes are the most variable florals, and usually citrus and white. These will evaporate first on your skin.
Heavier florals are the middle notes and spices and woods are the base notes.
Tip: The key to making no snap decisions when shopping for a new fragrance.
Since all the perfume interacts differently with each person’s body chemistry, it’s a good idea to try it first and then wait a few hours before you buy the fragrance.
Apply the scent to pulse points, like your wrist and the elbow inside the neck.
You’ll be able to smell the perfume ‘s top notes within the first two to five minutes.
The middle scent notes after 30 minutes, and the base notes after two hours.
How the fragrance can compliment you, and become your unique spring fling, will soon become evident.
Why Do you Need a Signature Scent?
Don’t forget that humans are connected to the world by their scenes, and the sense of smell is a particularly powerful one.
In our present day, the senses of vision and hearing take center stage but the subconscious power of the art of perfumery is something that you shouldn’t underestimate especially…
when it comes to creating a well-rounded image of yourself it is part of your journey of self-exploration and known who you want to be.
