Let’s go!
Select your notes
The summer is full of sunshine, warmth, freshness, and a happy feeling. You’ll want to look for uplifting notes that evoke lightness and vibrancy. Summertime favorites include citrus, floral, aquatic, and fruity scents. Choose scents that don’t overwhelm you.
- Citrus notes such as Bergamot, Lemon, or Grapefruit are refreshing.
- Floral notes like Jasmine or Lily of the Valley are playful, feminine, and fun.
- Fruity Notes, such as Watermelon or Pineapple, give off a tropical feel
- Marine or aquatic notes can create a feeling of freshness and beachiness
Go light
Keep it light. The same is true of fragrances. Opt for more lightweight formulas such as Eau De Toilette and Cologne. These products have less aromatic oils, are lighter and fresher, and are better suited to warmer weather.
Longevity & sillage
The summer is all about beaches, cycling, and holidays. You may be looking for a fragrance to last throughout the day without being too overwhelming since summers are spent outside, and the temperatures will only get hotter. Choose scents with moderate to good lasting power and a balanced sillage.
Sample
Test different fragrances on your body and allow them to rest for a few minutes. Due to the chemistry of our bodies, fragrances can smell differently on everyone. It is essential to test them out on your skin and see how they react. Note how the scent changes, as the top notes can differ from the dry down. You can choose a scent that you like as it develops.
Know Your Preference
Choose a scent that matches your style, your preferences, and the occasion you will be wearing it. Citrusy aromas are great for those who like light, breezy scents. Look for scents that have prominent floral notes if you want floral scents. You can find unique perfumes at artisanal shops.
Take the occasion
Consider the occasions for which you will be wearing your fragrance. Choose a fresh and light fragrance if you want a scent for the day. A beach day is perfect for an oceanic scent. You could opt for a sophisticated, sensual fragrance by attending an evening event. It would help if you considered the fragrance’s versatility and whether or not it suits your summer lifestyle.
