Understand attars, fragrance families and simple ways to choose and apply a fragrance that fits your everyday style.
Attar is a type of concentrated fragrance traditionally applied directly to the skin. Today, attar-style fragrances are available in many different scent profiles, from floral and fresh notes to woody, musky and sweet fragrances.
Unlike choosing a fragrance only by its name, understanding its scent character can make it easier to find something that suits your personal preference.
Think about the kind of fragrance you naturally enjoy: fresh, floral, musky, woody, sweet or something deeper.
A small amount is usually enough. Apply the fragrance to suitable pulse points and allow it to settle naturally.
Roll or apply a small amount to pulse points such as the wrists or behind the ears.
Give the fragrance some time to settle on the skin instead of immediately rubbing it.
Wear the fragrance naturally and discover how its character works with your personal style.
