Choosing Your Wedding Day Perfume

Wear perfume wherever you want to be kissed!

Know your vibe

Now, before we dive headfirst into the fragrant frenzy, let’s take a moment to acknowledge the importance of choosing a perfume that reflects your unique personality.

Your wedding day is all about celebrating your love story, and your scent should be a delightful chapter in that tale.

Are you the “classic and elegant” bride, or more of a “wildflower in the wind” type?

Or maybe you’re aiming for something bold and spicy.

Your wedding scent should match your personality and the feel of your big day.

Are you a romantic at heart, swooning over delicate floral notes?

Are you dreaming of a whimsical garden wedding, surrounded by blooming blossoms and dew-kissed greens?

In that case, seek out a fragrance that captures the essence of a sun-drenched garden, with notes of freshly cut grass, vibrant petals, and a touch of citrus zest to invigorate the senses.

A beach wedding? Something fresh and citrusy.

If you’re planning a glamorous affair under the starry night sky, opt for a perfume that exudes elegance and sophistication, with velvety accords of amber, sensual musk, and a dash of sparkling champagne.

Whatever your inclination, there’s a scent out there that will leave a trail as you walk down the aisle.

Avoid perfumes that make you smell like dessert. You don’t want bees chasing you down the aisle.

Is this the right one for me?

Timing is everything when it comes to choosing your wedding day perfume.

Perfume shopping can be a little like a speed-dating session—exciting at first, but quickly overwhelming.

You’ll start with a few dabs on your wrist, feeling sophisticated and chic. By the fifth tester, you’re sneezing, your partner is begging to go for coffee, and everything smells vaguely like vanilla.

So pace yourself.

Test a maximum of three perfumes at a time. And don’t make the rookie mistake of spraying one on top of another—you’re choosing a signature scent, not concocting a potion to ward off guests.

Make sure to test fragrances well in advance, allowing you time to fall head over heels in love with it (or, if necessary, to swiftly move on to the next contender).

Perfumes can evolve and develop differently on different skin types, and over time and even depending on the time of the month.

You don’t want to choose a perfume weeks before the event and not try it on again until the big day.

Buy it early and wear it now and again around the house, let it settle and make sure you still like the smell once it’s been on your skin for a few hours.

On the day

If it’s a hot day, go easy on the application. You want to waft elegance, not suffocate your guests.

Keep a small sample bottle near you on the day for touch-ups—you’ll want to stay fresh from your vows to your very last dance.

Remember, that choosing your wedding day perfume should be an enjoyable experience.

So, make sure you don’t write a fragrance off until you’ve tried it, you might get a nice surprise.

Explore all the different fragrances.

Take the time to savour each scent and trust your instincts to lead you to the one that resonates with your heart and soul.

The one that is perfect as your wedding day perfume.

Your perfume is that final touch of allure and elegance.

A spritz of the right scent, and you’ll be walking down the aisle feeling like an absolute goddess.

And years from now, when you’re cuddled on the couch and catch a whiff of that perfume again, you’ll be transported back to your wedding day.

So go forth, spray wisely, and let your scent be as unforgettable as your love story.
