Jo Malone Paper Bag

Try…before you buy.  Sample, sample, sample and figure out what you really like. Why? It’s best to try it, but don’t buy it…right away.  Because it takes a few hours for the true scent to work with your body.

Ask A Friend….what they think.  Getting a second opinion can help you break it off or help you make a decision to buy it! Get your friends or a family member to smell the scent on you for that second opinion.

Shop Online…why pay full price when you can pay a fraction of the retail cost? Seriously, we have gotten some great buys and bargains for the same perfume for way less. Plus, shopping from home. Well nothing beats convenience and huge savings.

Spritz generously onto your wrists, neck and pulse points – your body heat will help to diffuse the fragrance as the day goes on.

Do not rub the fragrance into skin as this will alter how the fragrance develops.

Have a separate scent for everyday and special occasions

Use lighter mixes like cologne or eau de toilette for daily use and save eau de parfums or parfums for select occasions when you want to feel extra special and want to stand out. Wearing lighter, fresher or fruity notes come across as more approachable rather than an intimidating musk or spicy notes.
