subject: Choosing The Right Designer Perfume [print this page] When it comes to choosing a designer perfume, there are certain things that you will need to keep in mind. Remember that you do not just pick a bottle of perfume randomly. It requires deep thinking and good decision-making skills. Money is of the essence, so spending your hard-earned cash to buy something expensive such as a perfume made by a famous designer is something that you will need to think about. Choosing can be a daunting experience especially if this is your first time. You will probably feel a bit shy at first once you enter the shop and ask the seller for the right perfume.
First and foremost, remember that you are your own boss. You have your own tastes when it comes to scents and fragrances. Know what scent best suits you. Trust your nose when it tells you that a certain scent is the right one for you. When shopping either online or in a department store, keep in mind that it is your right as a customer to try out a certain perfume. Ask the saleslady if they have a few samples which they can spray on you.
When taking a sample, it is ideal to spray on your wrist where the scent can best be smelled. Remember that the real scene of a perfume can be recognized only after a few minutes, so do not judge a perfume based on your initial impression upon smelling. Wait for the scent to completely become absorbed on your wrist before drawing a conclusion. A single spray does the trick.
Another thing you need to remember is that the smell of a designer perfume differs depending on the person. It may be hard to believe, but the chemistry of a person's body heavily contributes to how the fragrance would register on one's nose. When in doubt, take a friend with you when you are going to buy a bottle and let him or her do the smelling. The scent of a perfume sprayed on sample test strips are not the final scents that you will smell once it is applied on your body.
In order to be safe in the long run, do not judge a brand based on the appearance of the bottle or the celebrity who is endorsing it. As they say, do not judge a book based on its cover. In this scenario, do not judge a perfume brand based on its packaging. Take time to read the ingredients listed down on its box. Keep an eye out for any harmful chemicals that you might be allergic to. When in doubt, ask your doctor if your body reacts negatively to certain chemicals.
The things listed above are only some of the steps you must follow in order to buy a designer perfume. The bottom line is that not all perfumes are the same, and you as a consumer must be responsible enough to choose a brand that suits you and your body. Have a great time shopping for those perfumes.
