There is an opinion that a man falls in love with a woman only when she successfully picked up the perfume. So it or not - difficult to say, but dear ladies should definitely be more attentive to their spirits and not miss the "same" perfect perfume. And they can be picked up only by completely revealing all its secrets and subtleties.
Tips for choosing the perfect perfume
In acquaintance with the scents, everything as with men - some can be repelled, others - become lovers "for one evening", and still others - companions of life. Some of the candidates for "perfect perfume" you immediately reject, and to some look closely ...
What is it worth to start off by choosing the "same" smell?
- Time of day . For the first meeting with the fragrant "candidates" for your sympathy, leave in the morning, as by the evening the sense of smell is dulled and the sensitivity to aromas is reduced. In addition, do not buy perfume during menstruation or a few days before their onset, because it is proved that during this period, the sense of smell changes somewhat due to a change in the hormonal background, and the spirits that you liked during menstruation after finishing it may get you disappoint. Therefore, it is best to buy perfume or immediately after the end of the critical days, or in the middle of the cycle - then the sense of smell will not play a cruel joke with you.
- The right place. If a blotter is used, do not hold it to the nose immediately after applying perfume to it. Also, in any case, do not smell the flavors of vials or lids. Almost all modern perfumes contain alcohol, which has a sharp odor and is eroding the first. It irritates the receptors of the nasal mucosa and so when you inhale it you will not be able to appreciate the fragrant bouquet of perfume. Therefore, putting perfume on the blotter, wait at least five minutes to allow the alcohol to evaporate, and only then proceed to tasting the smell.
- Own feelings. There is a well-established opinion that unobtrusive light fruit and floral scents are suitable only for young girls, and deep ones are meant for mature ladies.
But remember that everything is relative, and do not limit yourself to age canons, if you liked the spirits, but supposedly "out of age". Do not follow stereotypes, focus only on your own preferences. In addition, if you liked the male fragrance, feel free to take it. In our time, the distinction between "male" and "female" smells has become conditional, and more and more brands produce unisex spirits. - Season. According to observations of perfumers, in winter the warming smells of wood, spices, leather, and also sweet aromas - oriental, fruit, sound best. In summer, it is best to give preference to fresh green, citrus, floral, sea fragrances.
- Comparison. Do not rush when choosing a perfume, compare your favorite fragrances, and do not limit yourself to only the first smell you like. All is known in comparison - this rule is true and in relation to spirits. Ideally, go back to all the smells you liked again in half an hour after the first tasting. You may be surprised at how your preferences change when the fragrances "unfold". If you chose several perfumes, apply each of them to the skin, see how the smell will "sound" on you. And if notes and chords of aroma captivate and fascinate both on the blotter, and on your skin - this is exactly your ideal perfume.
Secrets of applying fragrances
- If it is important for you that the aroma lasts for you for a long time, prefer spirits to perfume water. The perfumes are firm and stay on the skin for about 15 hours, and the perfume water is completely eroded after 2 hours after application. Spirits are more concentrated and therefore cost more than toilet water, but in the end they are much more economical.
- Perfumers give off about 16 active points on the body, which are best used to apply perfume, so that they "sounded" as long as possible and more intensively. Among the perfume-active zones are the wrist,
whiskey, neck, elbow bend, center of the chest, patches at the ankles and under the knees. - If you do not like to put perfume on yourself, sprinkle them in front of you, and then enter the fragrant cloud. But this method is suitable only for saturated spirits, but the lungs should be applied only to the skin.
- Please note that dry skin does not hold perfumes, even the most persistent ones, as it quickly absorbs fragrant oils. Therefore, always moisturize the skin, regardless of its type , if you want to keep the aroma on it longer. It is best to apply perfume after shower.
