Perfume, deodorants and regular hygiene have a great impact on your scent and appearance. There are therefore numerous perfumes and fragrance-enhancing products on the market. We help you select the ones that suit you best.
Why perfume?
As I said, scents and smells have a huge impact on the impression you leave on others. It is an intimate and personal thing, which to such an extent has a decisive role in how other people perceive you. Therefore, your perfume has more to say than just a fancy slogan and interesting packaging. Do yourself a favor and find out what your favorite scents are before you buy a perfume.
What does a perfume consist of?
Perfumes are built up with different notes of scents and there can be a difference in when they are brought into play. First we have the top notes, which the nose picks up first, but they evaporate already just a few minutes later.
Next we have the heart notes, which the nose picks up a few minutes later and finally, the base notes come. They have the longest effect and only become really obvious half an hour after you have applied your perfume.
This is also the scent that will make the expression of your entire perfume. Now that we have talked a little about the structure of various men's perfumes, let's dive into which fragrance notes are the most popular among men.
Which fragrance notes are the most used for men's perfumes?
Fragrant notes such as musk, wood and citrus you can't go wrong with in the city. As mentioned earlier, perfume is something personal, therefore you have to decide what you like and ask for perfumes that contain these fragrance notes from where you buy your perfumes. In addition, it is also important to find out whether you want a discreet or strong fragrance.
If you have your preferences in place, from here it is more about the interplay of your favorite scent note with other scent notes. If you really want to stand out, then you should go for the so-called niche perfumes.
They come from brands that have spent more energy on putting together some unique and different fragrance notes than on branding and marketing, however the price will probably also reflect this.
Of course, you should also pay attention to allergies and other ailments. It would be a shame to come home with a perfume that contains something the skin cannot tolerate. Therefore, make sure to examine the perfume in question for ingredients that could potentially pose a risk to you. Furthermore, you can always go for the Swan-labelled products.
When it comes to selection, you are wise to take your time. Also make sure you try it on your body, rather than a paper, as it will not reveal all the notes and the exact effect on your own body. If possible, try a perfume, wear it for a whole day and then make the decision whether you like it or not.
How to get the most out of your perfume?
Then of course you must also use it correctly! This means that you don't just have to spray it on your wrists, you also have to rub it into the skin. It actually smashes the fragrance notes. Instead, spray it on and leave it on, let it dry into the skin.
Spraying the perfume on the warm areas of the body is also a really good idea and combine it with using perfume after the bath when the body is moist. If the skin is dry, a lot more perfume will be needed, but this is also sure to drain your perfume somewhat faster. Also try to avoid spraying perfume directly on the clothes as it will not give the same effect.
The best thing you can do is to have several perfumes to choose from. Find the perfume you would most like to use for festive events, one for everyday life and then make sure you use certain perfumes in the summer.
