Have you ever been somewhere when someone enters the room and without even saying a word she has everyone’s attention as her fragrance lingers in the air. The girl with the signature scent that has heads turning and sends you straight into a perfume frenzy.
Since early civilization, people have been wearing scented oils, perfumes and other fragrances. There are a number reasons as to why people wear perfumes.
Pheromones:
Pheromones are scent triggered hormones which stimulate ones sexual appetite.
Memory:
There is a very strong connection between fragrance and memory.
Some like to connect ourselves to these memories by finding a fragrance that reminds us of something or someone.
Escape:
In this busy world we are in one feels the need to escape for a while from time to time. Fragrances can take us to a place of serenity. They are even capable of rejuvenating and energizing us.
Individuality:
In todays time I feel that this is the biggest reason one wears fragrance.
With all the trends out there it is important for most of us to show off our individuality. And with so many frangrances to choose from one can be original in the fragrance they choose.
Perfume is just one of the many faces of fashion, and it has its phases and fads, too.
I have been on a mission to find the hottest fragrances for spring.
This Spring the trend for fragrances has focused on Floral, Citrus and Oriental fragrances.
