Choosing The Right Perfume For You By John Squires At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

Choosing the right perfume can be tough. But don't worry, it can also be fun!

First, you need to take a long deep look at yourself. Are you the fun-loving type? Then you need a fun loving perfume. Are you intorspective? Then a more sensible perfume is the one for you. It just has to match your personality.

Next, you need to examine your bank balance. If you are not so well off, you need to adjust your horizons so that you are purchasing perfumes that fit your budget.

Thirdly, you should test as many as possible. Fortunately this is a fun and free experience. All major stores have perfume testing areas where you can test as many as you like. Test them on your skin, not on that silly piece of paper they give you, because they will smell very different on your skin. Rub the perfume in and leave it a while. Now take a brief sniff at it. Does it make you feel great? Does it enhance your skin's natural aroma? You are looking for something that smells totally natural, yet enhances your well-being.

At this point you will need to decide whether to buy an eau de toillette or an eau de parfum. The parfum is the stronger, but more expensive of the two. Expect it to last longer. If you just want to try things for a while and see how they go, buy the eau de toilette.

My last piece of advice is to have different perfumes for different times of the year. No sense using a thick heavy warming perfume in the summer months. Have at least two that you are comfortable with. Also, try to get one that is suitable for all-day wear, and one just for those special evenings. You will find that some fragrances last a long time on your skin, and these are good for all-day wear. Others start out very strongly but diminish after a few hours. Use these for evening wear.

So, to summarise, you need to experiment, and take other people's advice if you are going to find exactly the right perfumes for you. Spend plenty of time in the local department store fragrance section, try them all out, and pick the ones that you like best.
