Finding a fragrance that fits who you are is fantastic. It becomes as integral to your getting ready routine as brushing your hair and putting clothes on. Your perfume should be the pièce de résistance — the finishing touch — that helps you feel pulled together every day, regardless of what side of the bed you woke up on.
But whether you’re hell-bent on finding a new signature scent or just want to freshen up your fragrance wardrobe, knowing which perfume to pick is the hard part. It’s one of those decisions that sounds like it should be a lot more straightforward than it is. And, with all the options out there, it can get pretty overwhelming.
Studies have shown that the scent you wear can affect how you feel, and how others perceive you. With that in mind, we’ve narrowed down a few of our favorite fragrances according to whatever mood or mindset you desire.
1. Sophisticated
If you’re looking for a luxe perfume that will turn heads wherever you go, the aroma of Maroma Perfume Oil Jasmine Night is as mysteriously beautiful as it is memorable. Its heady notes of ylang ylang, rose absolute, and night blooming jasmine are reminiscent of a moonlit evening in some far off destination. Combining rich essential oils with European methodology, this elegant floral fragrance will stay with you long into the after hours. Its fairtrade formulation is handcrafted in India and is free of alcohol, phthalates, propylene glycol, or other harmful chemicals.
2. Self-assured
If you want to conquer the corner office (or feel like you could), go for the bold with Maroma Perfume Oil in Rose Attar. The scintillating scent of rose attar will bolster your confidence and make you feel ready to take on the world. A few dabs of this essential oil-based fragrance on your pulse points lets everyone know you mean business, whether you’re headed for the boardroom, bedroom, or anywhere in between. The highly concentrated European formula lasts much longer than regular perfumes, working overtime to ensure you smell beautiful from nine to five — and beyond!
3. Spirited
Want your perfume to perk up your senses? Just a spritz or two of Pacifica Beauty French Lilac Spray Perfume is the perfect plant-powered pick-me-up. With its happy-go-lucky blend of lilac, hyacinth, heliotrope, ylang-ylang, magnolia leaves and invigorating notes of nectarine, this radiant fragrance is sure to brighten your day and put a spring in your step — naturally! Its carefully crafted formula is made in small batches with the highest quality skin-loving ingredients and nothing more. And just in case you needed any more reasons to love it, it’s also vegan and cruelty-free.
4. Sultry
Pacifica Island Vanilla Perfume Spray merges the sweetly sensual scent of warm island vanilla with subtle notes of honeyed jasmine and exotic fruit. This flirtatious fragrance is equal parts sexy, fun, and easy to wear, making it a perfect pick for day or night. (Close your eyes, and you’ll swear you’re sitting on a tropical beach at sunset drinking mai tais.) Made with a blend of aromatic essential oils and denatured corn-based grain alcohol, it’s also 100% vegan and contains no parabens, artificial colors, or gluten.
