#10 - Finding the Right Perfume for You and Why Perfume Smells Different on Different People.

Beauty includes all senses, so today we want to share how you can find the perfume that suit you the best. But lets start with a tiny bit of education from NSTperfume.com. They state that the reason why perfume smells different on different people is because: "Your own body chemistry affects how differerent notes react on your skin. Anything that affects the "natural" smell of your skin, such as stress, hormonal changes, your current diet or medications, might change how a perfume smells on you."

Here are some catogories of smells to consider when chosing your personal fragrance:

1. Floral - Often includes different flowers of different kinds such as rose and lavender. It is often characterised as feminine and romantic.

2. Oriental - Often made with a base of different spices such as vanilla and cinnamon.

3. Wood - Think forest and an outdoors smell

4. Fresh - This includes Citrus and green scents that give

a refreshing smell.

Bearing all this in mind this could also mean that the fragrance you liked when you were younger no longer smells good to you. As for me I used to LOVE Lacoste Pink (if anyone remembers it) but now i cannot stand to wear that smell. Maybe you've experienced something like that?

Instead I've turned to Femme by Hugo Boss which has been my favorite for the past 5 years and I don't know how many times I've got compliments on this perfume from women and men!!. And my latest smell-angel is Dior's Miss Dior Cherie. These two I have to have in my beauty storage but I also like combining them with some Victoria's secret Body mists.
