There are many reasons why you might want to start layering fragrances. The most common would be to create something fresh and new if you like to experiment with different scents. Or you can make your fragrance last longer throughout the day by layering . How to Layer Fragrances If you are just starting out, approach layering fragrances as a fun science experiment and be patient with the process. Not every combo is going to work together. To help guide you, look at the fragrance notes of each perfume and consider the fragrance wheel we shared in our last blog. Certain fragrance notes are going to work well together, while some may enhance or hinder different elements of the perfume. And our noses are all unique so what may work for one person may not be attractive to another. If the idea of being your own perfumery is exciting, it’s time to go wild with your vegan perfumes at home to see what kind of new scents you can create. You can always start by combining scents on a piece of paper or cloth but remember it will be slightly different when it hits your skin. Here are a few fragrance layering tips to get you started: Remember what top, middle, and base notes are all about – light top notes will fade faster while base notes hold their own when layering. Floral notes go well with most notes and also do well combined with other floral notes. Notes in the same olfactory category can be used to enhance each other. i.e. within amber, wood, fresh and floral use the subcategories together when layering. Combine a single-note perfume with a mixed fragrance that has that note to bring out the scent more or add depth. Try combining perfumes with notes that are opposite on the fragrance wheel as an experiment. Perfumes with musk, amber and woody notes go well with fruity and citrus perfumes. Don’t combine two heavy or strong perfumes together. Combine scents that have at least one common note between the two.
