6 Significant Factors to Consider When Scent Shopping

6 Significant Factors to Consider When Scent Shopping

Whether you're looking for a new signature scent or just want to experiment with something different, shopping for diffuser oils can be a daunting task. With so many options, it's hard to know where to start. There are some things to consider while attempting to pick the perfect scent to diffuse and spread throughout the home.

When trying to find the right scent, there are many factors to consider. Here are the six significant factors to think about when scent shopping:

1) Ingredients

When looking for the perfect scent, it is necessary to consider the ingredients in the diffuser oil. The top, middle, and base notes all play a role in determining the overall smell of the fragrance. Many people have different sensitivities to certain ingredients, so it is important to know what you are allergic to before purchasing a diffuser oil.

2) Packaging

Another important aspect to consider when scent shopping is the packaging. The bottle and the box can both affect the overall look and feel of the scent. Many people prefer to buy fragrances that come in simple, elegant packaging. Others may prefer more elaborate packaging that reflects the personality of the smell, using it as a display on their vanity.

3) Preferences 

One of the most important factors is a person's preference. What smells good to someone may not smell good to another. It is important to find a scent that appeals to your own personal taste. There is no right or wrong answer when figuring out your personal preferences for the perfect diffuser oil.

4) Lifestyle

One's lifestyle is another important factor to consider when choosing a diffuser oil. If you are someone who is always on the go, you may want to select a calming scent that won't be too overwhelming once you diffuse it upon arriving at home. On the other hand, if you lead a more relaxed lifestyle, you may want to pick a heavier scent that will last longer.

5) Fragrance Oil Concentration

The concentration of fragrance oil in a certain scent is another important factor to consider when choosing a scent. The higher the concentration, the more potent the smell will be. This is something to keep in mind when choosing a diffuser oil, as you may want to opt for a stronger fragrance if you're looking for something that will last throughout the day.

6) Body Chemistry

The last thing to consider for a future fragrance is how it works with your body upon being exposed to it. Everyone's body chemistry is different, and that can affect how a scent smells on you. Depending on your natural body odour, the diffuser oil’s scent may be altered slightly. Remember this when shopping to get the added benefit of smelling great when diffusing.

Conclusion

Scent shopping can be tricky, but if you keep these six factors in mind, you can narrow down your options and find a scent that's perfect for you. Moreover, don't be afraid to experiment. With plenty of scents to choose from, it's impossible to know which one is right for you until you try it.
