Perfume is an integral part of the image of a stylish person. Memory for smells is one of the most persistent varieties of memories. Sometimes we can forget the visual image, but a fragrance from the past can awaken it again. If you get lost in the realm of smells, then when choosing perfumes you can even start from your own horoscope. This article will tell you how to choose the perfume fragrance according to the zodiac sign, in accordance with the tastes and preferences of each of them.
On the selection of flavors according to the zodiac signs
We are all very different: it is impossible to predict in advance which perfume someone will like, just as it is impossible to work out a unified classification of smells depending on character traits. Recommendations on the selection of the aroma of perfume according to the zodiac signs are based on the generally accepted characteristics of each of the signs and help to create an image inherent in a particular sign. If you do not agree with this characteristic and, conversely, want to get rid of the stereotype, then choose for yourself an example that you want to imitate, and "try on" its smells.
The classification of aromas itself is also quite subjective. In the world of perfumery, there are several generally accepted families of aromas, and then, some experts attribute certain aromas to one or another family, and sometimes even single out individual types or subtypes.
The best advice is to go straight to the perfume store and consult with a specialist. And if you do not like to talk with consultants in stores and want to pick up perfumes by the zodiac sign yourself, then pay attention to the packaging and shape of the bottle: you should like them. After all, the accompanying elements of fragrance marketing are specially created on the basis of certain associations. After all, how else can you convey the mood of the fragrance to the buyer? There is a rule even for advertising such products - if you like it, then you will probably like the smell itself.
Below are recommendations for the selection of perfumes according to the signs of the zodiac with examples of certain aromas. You can take them as a basis, but still do not order perfumes blindly: be sure to “try on” the chosen fragrance for yourself. It will be best if you walk with him for several hours to find out what it will become in combination with your skin specifically. Also, after such an experiment, you can find out exactly how the aroma behaves after a few hours - remains the same, reveals new facets or even disappears?
