The selection
Puredistance White
Puredistance White by Puredistance: no note list is on record with us, so the sample page sticks to name and house. Clothes hold a scent differently from skin, which makes a scarf or sleeve a useful second test.
Puredistance Rubikona
Puredistance Rubikona, by Puredistance, 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.
Puredistance Gold
For Puredistance Gold from Puredistance we hold no notes; wear it and judge. Warm skin and cool skin can bring out different sides, so try both if you can.
Puredistance M V2q
No notes are on record for Puredistance M V2q from Puredistance; the sample is the way to find out. A paper strip shows the outline, skin shows the detail.
Puredistance White No. 06
For Puredistance White No. 06 from Puredistance we hold no notes; wear it and judge. Notice how close it stays to the skin and how much of it others pick up.
Puredistance Aenotus

How to test them
Wear it on at least three different days before you decide. Apply one or two sprays to clean skin, without other scented products nearby. Try it once at home and once outdoors, since air and temperature change the impression. Test it on skin and not only on paper.
Skin, weather and habit change how any perfume comes across, and a sample shows you your version of it. Keep short notes per perfume; after a week the choice usually makes itself. The small size, 2, 5 or 10 ml, is meant for exactly that: a few honest wearings before anything bigger.

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.
