10/24/2021

 
​More often than not, purchasing a gift can be so tempting rather than personalizing one due to the tempting appeal of convenience.
However, personalizing a gift could mean something special to your mother, it could also help to satisfy her love for fragrance and concurrently showing your sincerity to her through this gift!

Include Her Personality

​Perfume creation can include the individual’s personality as well, making the gift more memorable and more meaningful as compared to the other gifts.
Furthermore, everyone has their own unique set of personality traits and likewise, every loving mother. Hence, perfume formulation can be varied, having thousands of different unique creations, each unique and different.
In this perfume workshop, the provided personality quiz will guide you to fit the perfume based on your mother’s personality, giving the creation a personal touch to the gift – unique and unlike the other gifts.

Factor in Her Lifestyle

Lifestyle of mothers shows a lot in how they would prefer their perfumes as well. A mom who likes to lead the high life where she often visits fancy restaurants could prefer a perfume with elegance and sophistication as compared to a mom who leads an active and sporty lifestyle.
On the other hand, a mom who stays at home and take care of the house could like a cleaner, milder and simple scent as compared to other moms. Therefore, looking at your mother’s lifestyle could give you an insight on what fragrance your mother would prefer.

Win with Her Preference

​This is also a very important factor in perfume selection and creation. If we are purchasing or personalizing a perfume for someone else, we have to first recognize and know what the other’s likes and dislikes are in scents.
Whenever, in doubt stick to safer options. Go for perfume strength that has mild to moderate fragrance intensity. A safe choice for perfume profiles be musk, vanilla, florals or fragrances with tones of aqua.

Chemistry of Human Body Interaction with Fragrances

10/4/2021

 
Attraction towards a perfume can happen upon the first sight, or more accurately, first sniff! However, love at first sniff is not a good reference for most perfumes, as no matter how good the scent was perceived, it will smell different when applied on your skin and as compared to when it is sprayed on perfume strips!
Therefore, before you judge how suited you are to a perfume, let’s find out more about what chemistry reaction perfume can have on our body and how it can influence the perfume profile and character of your perfume.

Skin Types
​

Different skin types will have different chemistry on your body. Let’s discuss the differences between dry, normal, oily and combination skin types.
For people who has dry skin, the perfume will evaporate fastest on your skin. This is because the skin does not have sufficient sebum or oil to confine the scent. A good solution is to apply unscented lotion or creams on your skin, allowing the fragrances of the perfumes to adhere to your lotion and creams you have applied.
On the other hand, people with normal skin type may have an easier time trapping the perfume on their skin, as their body generates more oil than people with dry skins.
Likewise, it is also similar for people with oily and combination skin types. Hence, perfumes can last longer on the people who has these skin types as compared to people who has drier skins.
The lasting perfume power on these skin type can be most distinctly differentiated while using Eau De Toilettes (EDT) or colognes (EDC). EDT and EDC have the least concentration as compared to other perfumes and thus, can easily test the long-lastingness of a perfume within a short amount of time.

​You may also have also heard or experienced how our perspiration can affect the perfume character. Different people will also have different body odour and are often influenced by our diet, lifestyle, culture and climate as well.
Some may not have expected this, but certain fragrances do complement us when mixed with perspiration. Scents capable of this include fragrances from citrus and fresh category such as oranges, grapefruit and cut-grass scent.
However, fragrances such as wood and musk do not complement our skin and are more suited to use to enhance elegance and sophistication in mild and less intense activities.

Eating Habits
​

​Have you heard before this phrase, “We are what we eat”? As mentioned before, our diet and lifestyle can affect the body chemistry interaction we have when in contact with perfumes.
The body odour exuded from a vegetarian, and a person who eats mainly meat, can fascinatingly produce varying scent due to their diet differences. Mysteriously, a person who frequently eats spicy food can also undertake a spicier body odour. Likewise, a person under regular medication, can smell differently from before they started eating those medications.

Chemical of Attraction
​

​Do you believe that we all exude pheromones? Some says that our pheromones are released at the erogenous sites in our bodies such as our necks. The different amount and erogenous is claimed to be contribute to the contrasting body scent each individual may have.
Despite the need for more intensive research to prove its credibility, some products are also marketed in such a way to attract customers who believed in the effects of pheromones.
