The selection
Widian Gold I
No notes are on record for Widian Gold I from Widian; the sample is the way to find out. Clothes hold a scent differently from skin, which makes a scarf or sleeve a useful second test.
Widian Al Wasl
Widian also has Widian Al Wasl. We have no pyramid on file for it. Pay attention to what is still there by the evening, since that is the part you live with longest.
Widian Rose Arabia Lily
Widian Rose Arabia Lily is on the list from Widian. Its notes are not on record here, and we do not guess them. What reads as sweet on one person can read as dry on another.
Widian Gold II Sahara
No notes are on record for Widian Gold II Sahara from Widian; the sample is the way to find out. Notice how close it stays to the skin and how much of it others pick up.
Widian Rose Arabia White

How to test them
Wear it on at least three different days before you decide. Leave other perfumes off that day, so nothing interferes. Try it once at home and once outdoors, since air and temperature change the impression. Note what you think each time, and read your notes back at the end of the week.
Trying it as a sample first means your decision rests on wearing it, not on a description. Two or three samples at a time is plenty; more than that and the impressions blur. The small size, 2, 5 or 10 ml, is meant for exactly that: a few honest wearings before anything bigger.

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.
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.
