How to choose perfume for the woman you love?
Nowadays, it is quite difficult to make the right choice: consultants in perfume stores are trying to sell new products, without being at all puzzled by whether a fashionable fragrance will suit you or your beloved or not.
How to make the right choice?
Method one. Find out the name of your girlfriend's favorite scent. By the name of a perfume it is quite easy to find its perfume pyramid.
The perfume pyramid is a diagram that allows the consumer to understand the stages of the life of a fragrance or, as perfumers say, its notes.
General view of the perfume pyramid: top notes - a large number of small and volatile aromatic molecules; middle notes are composed of medium-sized molecules with medium volatility; base note molecules have the lowest volatility
How does the scent change over time?
For example, Miss Dior (new) Christian Dior has the following scheme
Miss Dior (new) Christian Dior
Scheme of the Miss Dior (new) Christian Dior fragrance: on the left is the official composition pyramid declared by the manufacturing company; on the right is a pyramid defined by perfume consumers
Having studied the perfume pyramid, you can easily figure out which fragrant notes your loved one prefers.
In this case, we are talking about
- Italian mandarin
- Egyptian jasmine
- rose
- patchouli
- musk
Fragrances with a similar composition:
- Coco Mademoiselle Chanel
- Miss Dior Cherie Eau de Parfum Christian Dior
- Miss Dior Cherie Christian Dior
- Stardust Oriflame, etc.
If comparing perfume pyramids seems too difficult for you, there is another way to find a new favorite scent for your beloved.
Find the name of the perfumer who created the fragrance. The fact is that perfumers, unlike fashion designers, work for different houses. That is why the perfumes of famous perfume masters can be found under different brands.
Fragrance creators often mark their works with an olfactive signature - a specific perfume code unique to that creator. Accordingly, your girlfriend may also like other scents from this perfumer. By the way, the author of Miss Dior (new) Christian Dior, Francois Demachy, works not only with the House of Dior, but also with the Italian perfume house Acqua di Parma and the French brand Bourjois.
The ingredients in a perfume can be from 10 to infinity. But for a person, the main accord is important: 2-3 compounds that create the DNA of the fragrance
