The Best Fragrance for Every Occasion


The Best Fragrance for Every Occasion



Im not a fashion queen but I do understand that you should dress for the occasion. No sweats on date night, no evening gown for a lunch date.  So it only stands to reason that there is a fragrance for every occasion.  So I put together a few examples of what scents work with some common scenarios.  

Avon Femme Eau de Parfum - 2

Date Night

Is it your first date with the hot new guy?  Is it date night with your husband? You have to lit you need a dress that keeps their attention,  a great lipstick, and a scent that is ultra feminine and super sexy.  This scent has to be captivating, a sultry touch of a woodsy spice, and a few floral notes

My pick: Avon Femme:  opens with sweet florals of jasmine petals and magnolia. Rich amberwoods round out the fragrance, turning it into a sexy scent he won’t be able to resist!

Dinner with Mom

When having dinner with mom a scent that radiates  LOVE  needs to light up the room.  start with a bouquet of romantic floral notes. Add a dose of positivity with uplifting citrus, then round it all out with a warm, comforting base.

My pick:  Today Tomorrow Forever Absolute, which, at first, blooms with lush orange flower absolute. Next comes crisp bergamot, adding a bright twist, followed by a spicy hit of sandalwood.

Brunch With Friends

You want to think soft when you’re going to be hanging out in a crowd—too-strong fragrances can be polarizing. Instead, go for a light scent with pretty, crowd-pleasing notes of fruits, citrus, and soft woods and florals. 
My pick: Avon Prima, a delicate floral-chypre, makes a statement that’s gorgeous, but never overpowering. It starts with juicy plum and zingy bergamot, reveals a whisper-light heart of rose, then finishes with warms notes of clearwood, patchouli, and oakmoss.

Little Red Dress Eau de Parfum - 2Girl’s Night

 A fragrance that’s evening-ready, but still fun and playful. For that, look for a mix of florals, deep, woody notes, and juicy fruits.

My pick: You can’t go wrong with Little Red Dress. Bulgarian rose makes it feminine and pretty, while rich red sandalwood renders it sultry and evening-appropriate. A burst of red raspberry adds a surprising, effervescent twist.
