Tips for trying & layering perfume                                                                                                                                


Always test on Skin

Scents can smell different on paper and on your body due to body chemistry. 

Spray on Pulse Point

Apply on wrists, behind the ears, collarbone, or inside elbows for a long-lasting effect. 

Do not rub

Let the scent settle naturally. Rubbing breaks down the notes.

Layer Smartly

Use matching body lotion or shower gel to make your scent last longer.

Time it Right

Light Scents work better for daytimes, richer scents for evenings. 

Seasonal and Occasion-Based Recommendations

Winter

  • Try: Deep, Sensual perfumes with musk and Vanilla
  • Why: Cold weather pairs well with richer notes
