Summer is in full swing and everything is lighter and brighter. Our natural sense of well-being has been renewed, and winter wardrobes are long since tucked away. All that’s left to do now is to select a signature fragrance for the summer months.
A person’s mood, vibe, and confidence are all overwhelmingly affected by the warmer months, just like they’re positively affected by a beautiful scent. A good fragrance is an invisible, magic accessory that makes the wearer feel instantly elevated and his or her company feel instantly attracted.
Here are five tips to assist in choosing your ideal summer fragrance:
What do you like?
Before you ‘add to cart’ consider what type of fragrances you like. Do you enjoy the aroma of recently cut grass and the fresh air? Or are you the one who favours floral, earthy, and blooming fragrances? It’s important to first decide on which notes you prefer, and then look for those in fragrances that you sample.
Hit the right notes
On warm days, people prefer floral, beachy, and exotic aromas over darker notes like leather and velvet. Try searching for scents that are uplifting, soothing, and relaxing. Look for scents that are formulated using floral and/or citrus: Orange blossom, mandarin, and grapefruit are common notes in perfumes.
Go outside
A scent often translates very differently in the heat, so after you’ve sampled a scent in-store, take a walk and let the fragrance intermingle with your skin. After a couple of minutes, take another whiff and make sure you’re 100% satisfied.
Summer nights
If your budget allows, consider having a separate fragrance for night and day. In contrast to the light, floral scents that are usually appropriate for the daytime, you’ll need something a little stronger for your evening adventures.
You don’t have to break the bank to have a separate fragrance for day and night. Finding the best price on fragrances you will love can be tricky, but it’s not impossible. Take a look at the Playgirl range, specifically Playgirl VIP London Glam, which is underpinned by sandalwood and creamy vanilla, it is the perfect fragrance for anything from a dinner out to an exclusive red-carpet event. There are lots of options when it comes to men’s fragrances too, Playboy VIP New York with its citrus elements is edgy and on-trend.
Create a cloud
If you’re serious about accentuating your fragrance then why not dress for the occasion too? Natural summer garments like cotton, and linen can be excellent scent conductors. When it’s hot outside, try spritzing some fragrance, so it lands gently on your clothing. Spray into the air, then move through the fragrant cloud for the best effect.
