How to shortlist a perfume for yourself?
Perfumes can cost a crazy lot and it is thus important to first decide on a particular price point before selecting a family of preferred fragrances. Yes, there is a family of perfumes too, like floral, natural, wooden, and citrus. There may also be some subtypes, but that’s beyond the scope of this article.
We also recommend checking for a preset concentration level. The ones with lighter concentrations may vaporize in a few hours, while those with higher concentrations can stay longer. Selecting Eau de parfum, for example, will keep you smelling nice for only a couple of hours, post which it will melt away. Applying a rich floral fragrance can keep you smelling fresh for hours after application.
Note: Please mind that we are talking about the concentration of the fragrant ingredients, and not of alcohol. The latter will make the application smoother but also cause easy vaporization of the perfume itself.
Set aside some time and space for shopping. You can’t just go on a shopping spree while buying perfumes because smelling a lot of fragrances will make the olfactory nerves in your nose desensitized. Once that happens, you can be sure that you won’t get the best combination even if you come across it.
Tag a friend along who knows what your preferences would be. You should also go to a specialty store that sells such perfumes in a large stock, this will help you have a lot more options. Be sure to try out the fragrances some time apart so you may make the best decision.
It would also be better to check for the notes- top, middle, and base- in the perfume you intend to buy next. Notes define the time duration a fragrance wears itself out or gets vaporized. The top notes stay for 15 minutes at max, the middle notes stay on for about half an hour, while the base notes last through the duration of the perfume or the deo. The last one should last eight to twelve hours for a better experience.
Some good-quality perfumes you may try
We recommend opting for deodorants and Eau de Parfums if you are starting up. They are more easily available and would help you get a better understanding of your choices. We also recommend that you go with the ones that are offered by reputable brands. Opting for cheaper options might not give you the best experience, especially over a time period.
You may opt for Mamaearth’s Me Oud Deodorant. Offering up to eight hours of a fragrant stay, this toxin-free deodorant is meant for both men and women. It has a natural fragrance and is Made Safe certified. This nice and easy deo stays with you through the day because it comprises three notes- Top, Middle, and Base made of flowery and woody essences.

Next up on the list of perfumes is Mamaearth’s ME First Rain Eau de Parfum For A Trip Down The Memory Lane. Like the Oud Deo, it is toxin-free and well-optimized for men and women alike. It stays on for 12 hours on a trot and thus keeps you smelling fresh through the day. It features three notes- Top, Middle, and Base comprising Aqua, Jasmine, Patchouli, Amber, and Musk respectively.

Being cruelty-free makes these deos and perfumes quite the most obvious choice.
Summing up!
Perfumes make us who we are, they help us define ourselves in the outside world and help others perceive our presence more subtly. If we smell nice and pleasant, it may also unlock doors that we had once thought closed. People flock to those who dress nice and smell nicer, and perfumes are the closest thing to helping us present ourselves perfectly. We thus recommend you opt for a matching and long-lasting perfume or deodorant that matches your style statement nicely.
