The selection
Affinessence Bergamot Racines
Affinessence Bergamot Racines, by Affinessence, comes without a recorded note list on our pages. Give it time to settle before you judge it.
Affinessence Bergamot Roots

Affinessence Musc Ambre Gris
Affinessence Musc Ambre Gris by Affinessence: no note list is on record with us, so the sample page sticks to name and house. Do not judge it next to other perfumes on the same arm, as they blur each other.
Affinessence Vanille Benjoin
Affinessence Vanille Benjoin, by Affinessence, comes without a recorded note list on our pages. Your own nose gets used to a scent quickly, so ask someone near you what they notice.
Affinessence Patchouli Oud
No notes are on record for Affinessence Patchouli Oud from Affinessence; the sample is the way to find out. The opening is the loudest part and the shortest, so let it pass before deciding.
Affinessence Cuir Curcuma
Affinessence also has Affinessence Cuir Curcuma. We have no pyramid on file for it. Try it on a normal day, not only on a special one, to see whether it fits your routine.
Affinessence Combava Cedrat
Affinessence Combava Cedrat, by Affinessence, comes without a recorded note list on our pages. Warm skin and cool skin can bring out different sides, so try both if you can.
Affinessence Musc Patchouli Oud
Affinessence Musc Patchouli Oud is on the list from Affinessence. Its notes are not on record here, and we do not guess them. A paper strip shows the outline, skin shows the detail.
Also in this selection: Affinessence Gingembre Latte, Affinessence Safran-Neroli, Affinessence Santal Basmati, Affinessence Rose-Reglisse, Affinessence Cedre Iris.
How to test them
Test it on skin and not only on paper. Wear it on at least three different days before you decide. Try it once at home and once outdoors, since air and temperature change the impression. Spray it on the inside of your wrist or elbow and do not rub.
Skin, weather and habit change how any perfume comes across, and a sample shows you your version of it. Two or three samples at a time is plenty; more than that and the impressions blur. With 2, 5 or 10 ml in a glass spray vial you can find out how it behaves on your skin, at your own pace.

Questions
How were these samples chosen?
By the tags and note lists on record for each perfume. Nothing was added from memory, the order is not a ranking, and perfumes without recorded notes are described without notes.
How many samples should I try at once?
Two or three is a good number. Wear one per day, on clean skin, and write down what you notice in the morning and in the evening before you move to the next.
What is a decant?
Perfume moved from the original bottle into a smaller vial. Ours are filled by FragranceGems into glass spray vials and labelled by us, so you can wear a perfume before you decide on a bottle.
