The selection
Ggema Instinct
Ggema Instinct is on the list from Ggema. Its notes are not on record here, and we do not guess them. Give it time to settle before you judge it.
Ggema Secret Ruby
Ggema Secret Ruby, by Ggema, 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.
Ggema Ruby Rouge
For Ggema Ruby Rouge from Ggema we hold no notes; wear it and judge. Do not judge it next to other perfumes on the same arm, as they blur each other.
Ggema Lucky Moon
No notes are on record for Ggema Lucky Moon from Ggema; the sample is the way to find out. Wear it on more than one day before you make up your mind.
Ggema Royal Sapphire
Ggema Royal Sapphire is on the list from Ggema. Its notes are not on record here, and we do not guess them. The opening is the loudest part and the shortest, so let it pass before deciding.
Ggema Crown
Ggema Crown, by Ggema, comes without a recorded note list on our pages. Notes on a list are a map, and what you notice on your own skin is the territory.
Ggema Blue Velvet
No notes are on record for Ggema Blue Velvet from Ggema; the sample is the way to find out. A paper strip shows the outline, skin shows the detail.
Ggema King
Ggema also has Ggema King. We have no pyramid on file for it. Smell it right after applying and again later in the day, because the first minutes rarely tell the whole story.
Also in this selection: Ggema Love's Divine, Ggema Charm, Ggema Lady Ruby, Ggema Diva, Ggema Duke, Ggema Céleste, Ggema Soul, Ggema Séléné, Ggema Luna, Ggema Moonlight.
How to test them
Note what you think each time, and read your notes back at the end of the week. 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. Start light; you can always add a spray on the next wearing.
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. Two or three samples at a time is plenty; more than that and the impressions blur. A decant of 2, 5 or 10 ml lets you wear it on several days before you decide about a full bottle.

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.
