Perfumes Pointers Part 2

Guide to Buying a Fragrance

Don't Over-Sample: Try not to test out too many fragrances at one shot. Your nose will end up confused.

Spray On Blotters: When sampling perfumes, request for the perfume to be sprayed onto blotting strips.

Smell Like A Pro!: Hold the blotter until the scent end is about two inches below your nostrils. Gently tap the blotter to dissipate the fragrance so you can smell it better.

Test Spray: Once you've found something you like from the blotter samples, ask for a test spray on your body.

Take Your Time: To determine whether you love the fragrance, take a walk around and give time for the scent to develop on you. Don't buy a perfume just because you like its top notes.
