How to test them
Note what you think each time, and read your notes back at the end of the week. Leave other perfumes off that day, so nothing interferes. Test it on skin and not only on paper. Wear it on at least three different days before you decide.
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 sample is the sensible first step: a perfume on paper and a perfume on skin are rarely the same thing.

Questions
Are these samples made by the brands?
No. They are decants: FragranceGems fills each one from the original bottle into a glass spray vial and labels it. They are not official brand samples.
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.
