You already know I’m all about that perfume life and in this blog I’m spilling the tea on my top picks for spring scents and how to expertly pair notes. Let’s find your signature fragrance for the upcoming spring/summer season!
One of my secret weapons is fragrance layering. Fragrance layering allows me to create a unique scent that no one else will have. Lately, I’ve been adding a splash of perfume oil to my body butter, and let me tell you; it’s a game-changer!
Quick Tip: Using oils as a base enhances the longevity and intensity of the scent, especially for those spicy or autumnal fragrances that I adore.
To layer fragrances you want to mix and match perfumes with contrasting notes for a unique and captivating scent profile. Pair musky, amber, or woody fragrances with fruity or citrusy ones for an unexpected twist. Just remember to find that sweet spot of balance by ensuring there’s at least one common note between them.
If you’re just looking for a new spring perfume I have a collection for you!
