How to test them

Try it once at home and once outdoors, since air and temperature change the impression. Apply one or two sprays to clean skin, without other scented products nearby. Leave other perfumes off that day, so nothing interferes. Test it on skin and not only on paper.

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. Skin, weather and habit change how any perfume comes across, and a sample shows you your version of it.

Where to go next

Questions

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.

Why do some perfumes show no notes?

Because we only print notes we can trace to a source. Where no note list is on record, the page says so and leaves the judging to your own skin.

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.
