Tips for Choosing the Right Summer Perfume

When choosing the perfect summer scent, there are a few important things to consider. Ask yourself: How long do I want this scent to last? What type of strength works best for me? How strong is the sillage, or how far will the fragrance travel?

The concentration of a fragrance refers to how much essential oil was used in creating it. The higher the concentration, the more intense and longer-lasting the perfume will be. Parfums and extraits have the highest concentrations, followed by eaux de parfum (EDP). Eaux de toilettes are often chosen for daytime wear because their lighter consistency can be worn without overpowering one’s environment or becoming too cloying.

Summer fragrances should be light and fruity with elements such as citrus, green notes, and woody undertones. These scents are generally perfect for all activities during summertime and help keep you feeling cool – even when temperatures soar! Sweet smells such as vanilla, pineapple, gardenia, and jasmine can also provide an enjoyable scent for all-day wearability in warmer months.

Before settling on a new signature smell for your summer wardrobe change, it’s important to do some testing first! It’s best to spritz a few test fragrances onto cards or blotters at specialty stores before making your decision so you can take away samples over several days and confirm that you like them before committing to purchase an entire bottle.

How to Make Your Perfume Last Longer

Nothing is worse than spending a lot of money on a summer fragrance only to have it fade away too quickly. To help you get the most out of your summer perfumes, here are some tips to make them last longer.

First, consider layering your summer fragrance. This means selecting two fragrances (probably one with a stronger base note and one with top notes) that blend together nicely and wearing them both at the same time. The combination of two fragrances creates a unique scent that’s more lasting and holds aromas longer than either one on its own.

Second, keep your perfume bottle in a cool place that isn’t exposed to direct sunlight or high temperatures — the heat can cause evaporation and thus reduce the potency of your scent over time.

Third, be sure to apply it in the right places on your body — warm spots, such as pulse points behind ears, wrist or neck allow your body heat to help release the scent and make it last longer. When applying spray-on perfumes, you should spritz them onto clothing rather than directly onto the skin as this will lock in the scent for longer periods of time. Spraying after-shaves on clothing works less well due to their alcohol content vaporizing quickly when heated by body warmth, so they are better applied directly onto the skin for optimum effect.

Lastly try hydrating your skin prior to applying perfume as this will form a protective barrier between you and evaporating elements around you making your fragrance last for hours!

Conclusion

Summer is the season for fun and fruity fragrances. With so many fresh, fun options available, you are sure to find the perfect scent that represents your individual style. Whether you prefer light florals or bold citrus notes, there’s a summer-inspired perfume that will make you feel refreshed on warm days.

So go ahead and explore your options, and let your signature scent transport you to beaches, sunsets, and gardens where summer vibes are in bloom.
