Find the Right Valentine’s Day Fragrance Sets
for Loved Ones
Perfume is a perfect and particularly thoughtful Valentine’s Day gift but finding something to suit everyone isn’t always as easy as you’d think. Searching for Valentine’s Day fragrance gift sets online is definitely a good place to start but how do you decide which scent or gift set is best?
Gifts should be about the recipient, so finding the right scent or Valentine’s Day perfume gift set relies upon you knowing them quite well. Here we’ve got some basic tips to help ensure you make the right choice. We hope to answer the question ‘How do I choose a fragrance for someone else?’ and make it easy for you to find the right scent to give this Valentine’s Day.
Find Out What They Wear
Buying a fragrance for someone should begin with understanding and recognising their tastes. If you can have a look at their perfume collection that’s perfect but if not, ask. While you probably don’t want to just buy their favourite scent, it allows you to do a bit of research and choose another scent in the same family. They might prefer citrus scents over floral or woody over musk, and one way to find this out and not give it away that you’re planning on buying perfume is to do some research on their favourite scents.
Black Opium by Yves Saint Laurent is a warm, floral gourmand scent for example, while Fame by Paco Rabanne is a sweeter, more intense option.
Match their Personality
When buying women’s perfume or men’s aftershave for someone you know well, you can get a little playful and choose a scent that matches them. Common pitfalls to remember include buying a strong statement scent for someone who usually wears a subtler choice. Extroverted personalities are usually much more suited to oriental scents with woody and spicy gourmand fragrances. More introverted souls may prefer a lighter scent, with gentle floral notes and fresh citrus.
VIKTOR&ROLF bestseller Flowerbomb is an explosion of floral fragrances, immediately making a statement while diamond-bright Lady Million by Rabanne offers something more seductive ending in woody warmth.
Valentine’s Day Fragrance Gift Sets for Your Loved Ones
Many of the most recognisable brands and popular fragrance houses bring out exclusive gift sets for the season of love. You will also find gift sets with small samples of different scents, ideal if you want to give a loved one different options to choose from. Perfumes remain one of the most thoughtful and meaningful gifts for Valentine’s Day, just ensure you spend some time considering the individual you’re buying for and choose a fragrance that suits them.
