Your wedding is one of the most significant days of your life, so you’ll want to remember every minute. Incidentally, memory retention is directly related to the sense of smell. Therefore, the perfume you select for your wedding day can potentially transport you back in time back to your special day any time you wear it. But the world of fragrances is vast and complex, and so is planning a wedding in immense detail. So how do you find your perfect fragrance soul mate?
Try Something A Little Different
It may seem like an obvious choice to wear your favourite perfume on your wedding day, but we encourage you to switch it up a little. Choosing a fragrance that is distinctly different from your usual favourites can encapsulate the memory in a very distinct way.
Alternatively, you may want to think about picking a scent or fragrance category that you already love and often use but tweaking slightly to make it more unique to your wedding. This way, you’ll smell familiar to your partner but with the promise and hope for something brand new as well.
Think Practically
It’s easy to become overwhelmed by the number of fragrances available on the market. But categorising them to eliminate some options may help refine your decision making. The “Eau de Parfum” and “Eau de Toilette.” olfactive categories are decidedly different in their properties. This is because the oil percentage for each is different, resulting in a different fragrance retention capability.
Eau de Parfum is slightly more exclusive as it is longer-lasting and dispersed throughout the day by movement. Selecting an Eau de Parfum category fragrance is the perfect choice for your wedding day to ensure your fragrance is present throughout the day without the need for constant reapplication. There will be enough to focus on on the big day as it is.
Stay True To You
The most important point, perhaps, is to pick a fragrance that tells your story and matches your personality. For someone who is softer natured, light floral and powdery blends work perfectly. For someone with a bright and bubbly personality, summery citrus compositions work perfectly. For someone a bit more down to earth, green and woody earthy tones are more suited. And for strong and bold personality types, something distinct with leathery or oriental overtones may bring that aspect of their personality across.
The key here is to trust your intuition and stay true to yourself and your tastes. You want to be comfortable most of all.
Tell Your Love Story
Lastly, for a more intimate and romantic take on your wedding day fragrance, consider choosing a neutral fragrance that both you and your partner could wear on the day. You could make it special, taking time to select your signature fragrance together and making beautiful memories in the process. It could be a fragrance reminiscent of your first date, engagement, favourite vacation memories, or something that signifies your new life together.
