The art of layering: wearing scents together
How to build a signature of your own by combining fragrances that flatter one another.
Layering — wearing several fragrances at once — is a refined way of composing a scent that is truly your own. The practice comes from Eastern traditions and is enjoying a revival among perfume lovers.
Where to start
Successful layering rests on understanding the olfactory families and how they meet. As a rule, begin with the lighter fragrance and add the more intense notes on top.
What we suggest
To begin, try our Eau de Cologne Fleur d'Oranger under our Eau de Parfum Néroli Blanc. The first brings freshness and lightness; the second adds depth and sensuality.
Try things
Do experiment. Layering is above all a matter of personal taste: take your time and find the combinations that suit you.
