Fragrance Testing and Selection
Fragrance selection depends on your preference for scent notes and intended wearing duration. Testing on skin or blotter strips helps you assess how a fragrance develops over time.
Ask what testing options are available during your visit. Explain the scents you already wear and the occasions you have in mind, then note the names of any fragrances you want to compare. Do not assume that samples are free.
Preparing Your Visit
Arrive with a sense of fragrance families you enjoy—woody, citrus, aromatic, oriental, or fresh. Bring a notebook to record names and impressions of fragrances you test.
Plan to spend adequate time at the shop without rushing. Allow several minutes between tests to assess each fragrance. Perfume is not gender-restricted; prioritize your personal response over marketing categories.
