Choosing A Fragrance


C. Jasmine - Sensual And Exotic:
Jasmine is definitely a scent for the night. A favoured scent for many centuries, it was much in demand in the Egyptian, Middle Eastern and Asian civilisations. A light yet captivating and powerful scent that creates an impact. Jasmine's prohibitively high price limits use. It's a scent that exudes confidence and an extroverted personality - perfect for the woman of today. It complements contemporary Western Formal or party wear in solid colors such as red and black. While some may feel it is ideal for those in their 20s or 30s, but in actuality age is considered to be a state of mind. So go ahead, feel younger, put on some jasmine.
Popular Brands Include: 5th Avenue after five by Elizabeth Arden, Eternity by Calvin Klein, Ferre For Women by Gianfranco, Kenneth Cole by Kenneth Cole, Boucheron by Boucheron.

D. Orange - A Great Pep Up:
This sharp tangy scent is great to use in dreary weather, be it in winter or a muggy, summer day. Either on its own or together with lemon, it makes for a citrusy combination that's young, refreshing, attention grabbing and sometimes daring and tends to be overwhelming in smaller spaces - so be careful. This scent combines well with casual wear or semi-formal wear in both pastels and bright hues. Citrusy scents are associated with a personality that's young, adventurous, outdoorsy and is direct and unpretentious in social relations. It's the perfect choice for teenagers and young adults. Good to have handy when going outdoors for work or on adventure trips.
Popular Brands Include: Fahrenheit by Christian Dior, One Summer by Calvin Klein, Banana Republic by Banana Republic, Rocking Rio by Escada, Safari by Ralph Lauren.

E. Musk - Dramatic And Untamed:
Musk has traditionally been associated with masculinity but is increasingly finding its way into feminine cosmetics. The feminine version is usually derived from the musk flower and is often combined with other floral or food scents such as vanilla to tone it down a little. Musk is definitely a scent for the go-getting, extroverted contemporary woman. It goes well with party wear or formal evening wear that's both bold and daring in colors that command attention without being garish. Blood red, orange and black is best suited with stronger musk perfumes. Definitely a night or glamorous evening must-have perfume.
Popular Brands Include: Cool by Ralph Lauren, Surreal by Avon, Cinema by Yves Saint Laurent, Jovan White for women.
