Let's see some Tips and Tricks for choosing a perfume.

In Etiquette Mall you can refine your taste, get the best recommendations, the best deals for a Christmas gift for someone close to you. All stores deliver designer perfumes worldwide.

Choosing a perfume that suits you is not easy. First of all we need to know ourselves a bit. We have to be honest and not just following trends and fashions and just because everyone's wearing it, it doesn't mean it's right for you.

Fist of all, could you recognize the ingredients from a perfume? This is not about smell 'gorgeous' or 'sweet'. The perfume express your personality just like the clothes or hairstyle. Try to understand scents and my skin chemistry better.

What are fragrance notes?

Different plant oils break down at different rates; light molecules evaporate quickly, heavy ones slower. The composition of a perfume is called an accord where there are three set of 'notes' that appear gradually on top of each other thus creating an olfactive harmony.

Top notes (head)

The compounds that make up the top notes are usually sharp and volatile. When you spray the perfume on, you get the impression of these notes first. This note will last for about 10 - 20 minutes before it evaporates.

Middle notes (heart)

These scents appear just before the top notes die down and are usually rounded and soft. Rose, jasmine and lily scents are typical middle notes. The 'heart' gives the perfume its main character together with the base notes. The middle notes can start appear a few minutes after application and will last about 3 - 6 hours on the skin.

Base notes (dry-down)

These scents are heavy and large molecules that evaporate slowly. They emerge last and have a rich and deep character. They are also used to give lasting power to the perfume. You'll probably detect the first base notes between half an hour to an hour and they can last up to 24 hours on the skin.

How to choose your perfume?

Each individual will have a different preference when choosing a perfume. Why?

Firstly, perfumes are a mixture of essential oils and aromas. The smell of a particular perfume will vary slightly from person to person, as each person's individual skin chemistry and body temperature will react slightly differently to a given scent.

Which group my perfume belongs to?

Fragrances are put into 8 main olfactory families or groups. I added another one, aromatic, which is a group made up of aromatic plants. Widely used in aromatherapy and herbal medicine their popularity has lately increased in high-end perfumery as well. Perfumes rarely belong to a single olfactory group nowadays. You'll see that often 2 or 3 names of these groups are combined when classifying a particular fragrance e.g oriental woody, floral fruity, floral aquatic.

An aldehydic perfume contains chemicals from the aldehyde group. Character: pure and fresh. Example: ( Chanel Chance)

An aromatic perfume is made up of various herbs e.g. rosemary, basil or thyme. Character: rustic and fresh. Example:  ( L'Instant de Guerlain)

An aquatic perfume will have a base of synthetic ingredients that give the sensation of the sea, mountain air or fresh linen. Character: clean and modern. Example:(Issey Miyake L'Eau D'Issey Noir Absolu)

A citrus / fruity group includes bergamot, grapefruit, lemon, mandarin and sweet orange and fruits such as peach, red berries, watermelon. Character: fresh and light. Example:(Dior)

A floral perfume will contain extracts of flowers such as rose, lily or jasmine. Character: sweet and delicate. Example:  ( I Love Dior)

A green perfume formerly known as chypre is made up of bergamot, labdanum, patchouli and oakmoss. Character: woody and floral. Example (Chanel)

A gourmand perfume contains notes like vanilla and tonka bean, chocolate or caramel. Character: sweet and edible. Example:(Cartier Delices de Cartier)

An oriental perfume will have a base of amber, musks, vanilla and other exotic plants. Character: warm and sensual. Example: (Laura Biagiotti Roma)

A woody perfume is made up of woods such as cedar, patchouli, sandalwood and vetiver. Character: earthy and masculine. Example:(Elizabeth Arden Arden Beauty)

How to try a perfume?

Recommended is not to ware parfume when you try a new frangrance and try this at home, not in the store where are many perfumes in the air.

Don't rub your skin after spraying the pefume, all the molecules  will be destroyed.

Where can you find fragrances in Etiquette Mall?

Go to the elevator panel and choose the 26th floor, or simply search for designer or the name of the perfume in search box.This second method is not so good unless you know exactly the name of the perfume.

On the 26th floor choose shops and here you can find Parfume Emporium, one of our adertisers.

Ema recommends you:

In Winter as you now, Citrus and other fruity scents reflect the winter season and the holidays it brings, such as Christmas and Passover.

Select a fragrance that is reminiscent of these holiday scents, such as pomegranate and vanilla bean, lemon, or orange.

Spicy scents bring a warmth to the crisp winter air.

Try a scent with notes of spicy cinnamon or cardamom.

My recommendations

Gucci

Women's 2.5 oz EDT Spray (Tester). A modernized Chypre Frida Gianinni's first fragrance creation combines classical perfumery with her unique flair for innovation. The fragrance smolders with a striking patchouli base which makes its entrance early and like the Gucci woman leaves a lasting impression. At the same time the top of the fragrance emerges with an unexpected and exotic blend of guava and pear bringing uniqueness and modernity.

Perfume Etiquette

Choose the perfume with care, depending on the occasion.

A cocktail party,a meeing with one or two people, a day at the office, a corporate event, these events demand a little sophistication. Choose something subtle.

If you want to make a splash at a wedding, a party or a night out of clubbing, go in for something stronger, but not to" loud".

As your attitude, shape, body language and clothes, perfume should compliment what you stand for.

Don't rub your wrists together after spraying on perfume, this reduces the effect of the top layer of perfume.

If you like a little flambooyance, spraying into the air and walk through it,you are soaking in your favourite scent.

Why ou should by a tester? It's cheaper, because the producer did not invest in packaging.
