| My fave perfume |
It’s good to have a number of fragrances from which you can choose to suit an occasion or mood.
The tip that I want to share, is not for choosing ‘the best’ perfume or a good perfume to add to your collection. it is a handy way of choosing the right everyday perfume for YOU.
I like to have a “staple” everyday perfume and I'm guessing I'm not the only one. After a year or so of wearing an everyday perfume, i like to find a new one and so the cycle goes.

| Current everyday perfume |
Whatever you pick as your everyday perfume, it has to compliment who you are and it should also lift your spirits everyday. So, finding your perfect everyday perfume can be a difficult task. But it doesn’t have to be. Try this...
- Go to your local department store/drugstore fragrance counter and ask for samples and cardboard swatches of the latest/recommended perfumes and samples and swatches of perfumes which are similar to your current everyday perfume.
- Make sure you label the cardboard swatches.
- Put all of the tiny spray samples in your cosmetics bag that goes inside your handbag.
- Put each cardboard swatch in a different place e.g. handbag front pocket, wallet, other handbag.

| Cosmetic bag with 4 spray samples! |
For the next few weeks, every time you open the front pocket of your hand bag or your wallet a scent will hit you. So on any one day you may be hit my 2 to 3 different scents that you have purposely placed in these pockets/ wallets. Every time you use a public bathroom or whenever you remember to do so, spray on one of the spray bottle perfumes and make a mental note of which one it was.
After doing tis for a couple of weeks YOU WILL KNOW which perfume you will like best as an everyday perfume.
Give it a try and let me know how it goes :)
