How to choose a fragrance

Choosing a fragrance is a personal decision. Here is a simple method for finding the one that suits you.

Know your preferences

Ask yourself which smells attract you naturally: flowers, citrus, woods, spices, sweetness? Your scent memories are a good guide. Note the fragrances you have liked.

Test on skin

Never judge a fragrance on the bottle or on a blotter alone. Spray on your wrist, wait thirty minutes, then smell. A fragrance reacts to your chemistry and may be different on you.

Think about use

What will you wear it for? At work, a discreet, fresh fragrance sits more easily. For the evening, an oriental or a more intense woody scent finds its place. In Kinshasa, citrus and light florals are appreciated during the day.

Ask for guidance

If you are unsure, use our online consultation. A few questions about your taste, and we suggest fragrances from our selection, with no obligation.

Take your time

Live with a fragrance for a day before deciding. A scent chosen too quickly is rarely worn for long.
