Perfumes I Die For

I love perfumes, they are the finishing accessory to any outfit. Most of the perfumes that I like smell like candy, sweet florals, fruit or fresh green, or aqua scents. The perfume tip that I gave in my last perfume post was to not rub your wrists together after spraying your perfume on, the tip that I am giving you today is about how the scents can change depending on who is wearing them. The oils in the perfume (the different notes) will mix with the unique oils on your skin and will either stay true to what the perfume smelled like in the bottle, change for the worse, or change for the better into your own personal scent. Try on the perfume before you buy it to make sure that it smells how you would like it to smell.
