For many it's time to switch out our wardrobes, put away the shorts and t-shirts, and bundle up with cozy sweaters and layers. And just like you layer your clothing to stay warm, for the final touch, don’t forget to layer your fragrance too. Our guide will walk you through how to do the process of blending two or more scents with the expertise of a perfumer.
Getting Started with Layering
First of all, get in your experimental mood. This is about having fun, playing around, and creating a unique scent, your very own olfactory masterpiece.
You can always start with a sheet of paper and mix pairs of your favorite scents on it until you find one that tickles your senses in the best way.
If you’re not quite sure about mixing scents you can always apply one of your favorites to one wrist and another to your other wrist, so that you can enjoy both at the same time, perfect for our indecisive friends.
Tips and Tricks
- Make sure your fragrances are linear, meaning the fragrance stays consistent from the first spritz to the end of your day. You don’t have to worry about CLEAN CLASSIC and CLEAN RESERVE as they are designed to be linear and layered!
- Start with a base fragrance that is woodier, this will anchor your scent and provide a stable foundation on which to build your personalized fragrance masterpiece
- Remember to dab your fragrances, rather than rubbing them. Letting a fragrance breathe will allow for the top, middle, and base notes to shine through.
