An Art

We consider layering fragrances a form of art; it allows individuals to express themselves by creating a unique scent tailored to their personality. By using a combination of multiple scents, you can effortlessly enhance the depth and longevity of your fragrances, and in turn, create a distinctive scents that help you express your unique style.

The Prep

Before beginning the process of layering perfumes, it is imperative that you start with a clear idea of what you would like the outcome to turn out like. To help you decide, important factors to consider are the occasion, mood, and your personal preferences. We recommend sampling perfumes and taking notes on what kind of scents you resonate with most. Do you lean more towards musky scents with depth or more delicate floral scents? 

The Process

We recommend choosing two to three fragrances to layer. Opt for fragrances that complement each other by experimenting with different scent combinations. It is important to layer fragrances beginning with lighter more delicate scents as a base and then following with more intense scents.
