A perfume is like a signature. It can qualify a person, his character, and make it remembered forever. For some people, the years pass and it is always the same perfume that accompanies them! While others need renewal… All these ideas around a unique perfume have changed a lot: the perfumery offer has grown and the trend is no longer the same.
Today, there are an incredible number of different fragrances that make you want to try them all (or almost). Thus, it has become common to change your perfume regularly , whether for an event, a gift, a change of season, etc. In the latter case, it is true that in winter, we do not always have the same desires as in summer! Heat and perspiration can also modify and alter the scent , causing us to turn to other scents. Be careful though, because not all perfumes are suitable for exposure to the sun…
Here are some tips for choosing the Eau de Parfum for your summer!
Lightness!
In summer, with the heat and perspiration, the perfume evaporates more quickly. As the day goes on, only the heaviest and most pronounced notes, which are the base notes, remain on the skin. So be careful not to have your hand too heavy because the intensity of your fragrance can increase and perhaps eventually make you sick.
Freshness!
The heat of summer often makes us want thirst- quenching, tonic and sunny notes , which remind us of holidays by the sea, the smell of hot sand… To stay in cooler scents, we recommend top notes citrus or aquatic. However, to prevent these fragrances from evaporating too quickly, you can lengthen the hold a little by starting with floral heart notes and fruity or musky base notes. A perfect combination for a delicately scented summer!
Safely!
Beware of the harmful effects of the sun if you must expose yourself to it. Indeed, certain molecules used in the production of perfumes can create skin reactions to exposure to the sun. To avoid this kind of reaction, choose non-photo-sensitizing perfumes, which will not react with UV rays. For this, you can turn to our Scented Mists , which do not contain phthalates, chemical fixatives or nitro musk. A good alternative to Eau de Parfum if you have planned a day at the beach! If you are more of a walker, apply your favorite Eau de Parfum to your clothes or your hair : your skin will be safe!
