i think a great way to try out a bunch of scents is through arab oil perfumes usually any like arab home goods store will have them (if ur near chicago i can tell u exactly where to go) but they have a wide range of scents, super long lasting and don’t break the bank if u just get the roll ons 😝

Arabian perfume shops

I LOVE going to the Arabian perfume shop near me and stocking up on some the the most intoxicating body oils in exsistenice. You can buy them in viles or by the ML, the prices are super affordable and they have such a dizzying array or options and dupes of expensive perfumes that will probably stay on your body longer than the real thing. I like using them after I shower and the scents last a solid 8-12 hours, so I’m constantly smelling good. My favorite spot is Muhammad Place on Bedford, but if I’m in the area Monir Attar in Flatbush is worth the trek. Its fun to make a solo date out of it. If your have a few base notes in mind, they can usually guide you to what you would like right away. But also, you can just ask to smell a bunch of different scents and kind of stumble into the ones you like. In my experience, it helps to start with a base and then ask for something sweeter, stronger, more musky, ect

perfume samples

le labo, ds & durga, and plenty of the other indie perfumers sell samples of their perfumes for like $3 a sample! luckyscent.com also has decants of like any scent you could want. buy a sample pack and try different scents out till you find one or two you really like. then think about what aspect of the scent you like, and buy other perfumes samples with similar notes. once you find one you really love, buy a bottle!
you may find that some scents work best during the night but feel overwhelming for work, or maybe they smell great in the summer but are a little too floral and fresh for winter… half the fun of perfumes :)

Perfume samples

a low-cost low-commitment way to smell wonderful scents and discover new brands. i order them from brand websites or big online warehouses like luckyscents or twisted lily. i also keep samples in all my purses, my car, my makeup bag, my bf’s house, everywhere. they’re tiny and perfectly portable so you can always have them on hand in case of emergency. you’d also be surprised how long some of them can last, which is great if you don’t have like $200+ to drop on a full size fragrance. and if i don’t like one i just give it to a friend!
