Just like your outfit and make up can reveal a lot about your personality similarly, a fragrance is that hidden accessory that can exude a sense of you. In fact, it is a physiological fact that people associate you through your fragrance and perceive you by it.
And since people associate you through your fragrance, how can you go wrong with it? But having a plethora of options to choose from, it definitely is quite difficult to choose your signature fragrance.
But don’t worry we are here to help!
Hi guys, welcome to India.com, my name is simian keswani and today in this video, i will be telling you how to find your signature scent.
1.Try, Test and Buy :
With a wide range of perfumes to choose from, finding your signature perfume is quite a tedious task and what’s amusing
Is that the scent you would fall in love at first sight or smell should I say? Wouldn’t be the scent that that could have the potential for being married to you. What I mean is that fragrances have three notes : Top note, mid note and base note, the top note is the one that you smell at the test strip and are the ones that makes you buy the perfume. However, it only stays for maximum 20 mins and over time, the scent would totally smell different after mixing with your body chemistry. So instead of straight away buying the fragrance you like, spend some time with it, move around and come back and hour or so to decide, if you still like it. Always remember that finding your signature scent is only possible by going through to that journey, so don’t be in a rush, keep some patience, you will surely reach there.
2. Consider your personality :
Very much like your outfit exudes your personality; the fragrance also has the potential to portray a sense of you. Make sure that your perfume aligns to who you are, especially because a lot of people are going to associate you through your signature scent.
For example : If are an introvert and you choose a scent that is s bold and spicy, it might not reflect your personality and instead of you wearing it, it might wear you out.
3. Consider the weather :
it is important to keep in mind that while you are out on a hunt for signature scent, some fragrances’ would work well in colder days and some in summers! While in summer, you would lean more towards something fresh and light as the fragrances notes would be stronger due to heat. In winters, a darker, muskier scent would be a better choice as they take longer to evaporate and take time to build up! Choosing something that can work well in all the temperatures would be your best bet. Also don’t feel pressurise to get married to one fragrance, something that can work well
4. Longevity :
Even if other factors are in place but your perfume doesn’t last long than the entire factors are also irrelevant. There are different types of fragrance in the market, predominantly, EDP, EDC and EDF Eua De Cologne has 2 to 6 % fragrance concentration and lasts up to 2 hours, eua de parfum has up to 15-20% Concentration and lastly the most which is 5 to 8 hours, eau de toilette has concentration of – 5-15% and lasts up to 3 hours and eua Fraiche 1-3% and lasts the least, which is one hour.
