Frequently Asked Questions

How much should I expect to spend on an entry-level perfume?

Entry-level women's perfumes typically range from $20-80 for a standard bottle, with many quality options available in the $30-50 range. Higher prices don't always indicate better quality for beginners, so focus on scents you enjoy rather than price alone.

How do I know if a fragrance will work with my body chemistry?

Test perfumes on your skin rather than on paper strips, as fragrances react differently with individual skin chemistry. Apply to your wrist, wait 15-30 minutes for the scent to develop, then evaluate. Many stores offer sample sizes or return policies for online purchases.

Should I choose seasonal fragrances or year-round options?

For beginners, versatile year-round fragrances offer better value and simplicity. Light florals, fresh citrus, and soft fruity scents typically work across seasons, while you can explore seasonal specialties once you're more comfortable with fragrance wearing.

How should I apply perfume as a beginner?

Start with less than you think you need - one spray on each wrist or one spray on your neck is sufficient for entry-level concentrations. You can always add more, but over-application is difficult to correct and may overwhelm others in your environment.
