When it comes to perfumes, it feels like navigating the open sea, guided only by a confused cloud of stars (forget GPS because there's no single route to follow!). Just as we must learn to read and decipher the bright points that will lead us home, the same must happen when buying a perfume: we must understand where we want to go and what is the right way to reach our destination.
It may seem like a trivial question, but whether you're buying for yourself or looking for a gift, it's not easy at all (we know!). To navigate through pages and pages of perfumes. But fear not: we have gathered some information that will help you select the perfect fragrance for you.
It's all (or almost) about... concentration! Yes indeed: the fundamental difference lies precisely in the concentration of the ingredients. This, at least, as a general rule: when it comes to perfumes, other factors also come into play, such as intrinsic intensity (Oud will always be more persistent than Tiaré) or the quality of the ingredient in question.
As a general rule, however, remember that:
Let's start with a fundamental premise: clear distinctions are always approximations. The world of perfumery is too special, subjective, and rich to be divided into stagnant compartments. It's better to keep an open mind and let yourself be guided by what you really like, rather than refrain from trying something just because it's classified as "for men" or "for women."
However, a review of the fundamental distinctions can be helpful in making a choice. Let's start from the basics: in perfumery, we generally talk about women's perfumes, men's perfumes, children's perfumes, and unisex, and each of these categories has specific characteristics:
Have you ever wondered why perfumes change on your skin within a few minutes after application and then throughout the day? The reason is simple: you have to imagine the composition of fragrances like the pyramid of Cheops: the bricks at the base have a different function and composition from those at the top!
Each part of the olfactory pyramid is fundamental for the final result of the perfume, but it has a different function and persistence, which is why, when choosing a fragrance, it is important to pay attention to its composition and identify the most persistent notes:
N.B! Most perfumes are built according to the scheme of the olfactory pyramid, but there are also linear fragrances that do not change over the hours: think of molecular compositions, for example, made up of a single (or two) ingredient(s) that blend perfectly with the skin's pH.
We like to call it "the Bible of perfumes": we are talking about the "Wheel of Fragrances" devised by Michael Edwards. It is one of the most authoritative classifications of olfactory families and subfamilies, extremely useful to start orienting yourself in the world of perfumes.
The four fundamental families are: floral, oriental, woody and fresh.
They are further divided into subfamilies: e.g., delicate orientals, intense orientals, woody orientals, woody, musky, dry wood, aromatic, citrus, marine, green, fruity, intense florals, delicate florals, oriental florals. By using the filters on the 50 ml website, you can easily select the fundamental families and start narrowing down your search!
There are indeed very popular olfactory notes, such as jasmine, rose, iris, oud, vanilla, and violet, but even when you have a favorite ingredient in mind, you need to pay attention because the composition of perfumes plays a decisive role in bringing out certain olfactory notes more or less intensely: there is not just one rose, but hundreds of facets!
So how do you proceed? Read the olfactory pyramid carefully, paying attention to the position occupied by the ingredient you are interested in: if it is present at the base, it will probably be very perceptible and persistent. Also, observe the other ingredients: if there are very persistent notes in the base that risk overshadowing the one you are interested in, it is advisable to opt for another fragrance!

Let's start with some general rules on how to test the desired perfume:
The two golden rules for keeping your perfume intact like the first day are: no humid places and no direct light. Contrary to common usage norms, the bathroom is not the ideal place to store your perfumes: it's better to opt for a dry place, at a stable temperature and not exposed to direct sunlight, such as a closet, a sheltered pantry, or the bedroom.
In this case too, talking about real rules would be a bit excessive, but, in fact, there are points on the body where you can wear perfume to enhance it at its best. All particularly warm areas, as they are irrigated by blood flow, will help your fragrance spread evenly. So choose the neck, wrists, inside of elbows or knees, behind the ears.
For an even more intense effect, we recommend applying a moisturizer (better yet, vaseline) on the points where you will then apply the perfume. For a more delicate effect, spray your fragrance in the air and walk through the perfume cloud. Also, try to intensify your perfume by matching creams, essential oils, or hair perfume with the same fragrance.
If your favorite perfume doesn't have a satisfactory duration, try carrying a rechargeable atomizer or a sample of the same fragrance with you to reapply it wherever necessary.
There are fragrances more suitable for a specific moment of the day or a particular season: this does not mean that you cannot choose to wear oud in August with forty degrees in the shade, but let's say that there are good rules that can be useful for you to always feel with the right fragrance at the right time (and save you some headache).
