What are the different types of perfume?

Perfume comes in different concentrations which can affect the intensity of their scent. The most common perfume types are eau de toilette and eau de parfum. Eau de toilette is typically a lighter style fragrance where as eau de parfum has a higher concentration of fragrance oil which gives it a stronger scent.

How should I apply perfume?

Perfume is best applied to clean, dry skin and applied directly to the pulse points which include the inside of the wrists, the neck, and the backs of the knees. Only apply a small amount of perfume to avoid over-doing it.

Should I use a different perfume in the Summer and Winter?

The perfume you use in each season depends entirely on personal preference — but you may like to use a lighter and fresher perfume in the summer and a warm, rich, or musky scent in the winter.

What notes are in perfumes?

Each perfume has a different collection of notes which make up your perfume. Some popular notes include Vanilla, Wood, Rose, Musk, Oud, Amber, and Citrus. These typically fall into a category like Fresh, Fruity, Floral, Warm, or Spicy.
