ALL ABOUT PERFUME: WHAT MAKES SCENT TO YOU?

A friend requested that I write about perfume, so here goes one of my favorite subjects that's never been written about.

Perfume, one of the oldest beauty products, is also one of the most popular modern-day. While some women wear perfume on special occasions, others identify by their special bottle of scent. However, now, there are so many different perfume out there, it's hard for any woman to choose a smell that fits her best.
When perfume shopping, it's important for her to try out her choices before purchase. Here are some things to remember:

1. Go perfume shopping with clean skin.
2. Don't try on too many perfume. Otherwise you will confuse the smells.
3. When you try on perfume, leave it on your skin for a while. Test out how long it lasts. Sometimes the mixture in the perfume repels your skin and doesn't last as long as it should.
4. Just remember, when it comes to perfume, it's like a wedding dress. When you have found it, you know it. Don't let all those brand names confuse you. When you stumble into the right one, it becomes yours.
To further help you out, here are a few suggestions that I've tried:
Classical: No. 5 by Channel



Sensual: Irresistible by Lancome


Fresh: Aqua de Gio by Armani



Sporty: Liz Sport by Claiborne



And of course, my all time love: Pleasures by Estee Lauder
