The cliché that states, "You can't tell a book by its cover", is so true. Just looking at the cover of any product isn't the best way to make a decision whether to buy. You've got to exercise due diligence and take a closer look before your final decision is made. This is so true when making a major purchase like a home, car, or any large purchase item. You wouldn't look at the front of a house and say, "That's all I need to see". Such an abrupt method would cause many to scratch their heads and question your decision making process. They would suggest you go inside and check out the houses' nook and crannies. The facade of a house doesn't reveal its many secrets and unique charm. The same can be said for a new or used car. At the very least you pop the hood, take a close look at the body and get inside and check out the interior. Just stepping back and looking at the vehicle close up or doing a walk around won't tell you anything. It's important to get close, put your hand on the body, and see the scratches and minor bumps and bruises.
When shopping for a personal item such as a fragrance folks can use a variety of methods such as the 'spray on tissue', spray a small shot of fragrance in front of you and walk into it, or spray a small shot on your wrist. Unfortunately spraying a cologne or perfume's fragrance notes on a tissue or walking into a mist of the fragrance won't tell the person how that fragrance interacts with their body chemistry. The fragrance needs to come in contact with the body and the 'spray on the wrist' method is usually the best. Your body's chemistry will interact as you let your nose take in the scent. Remembering there are four fragrance classifications and fragrances like Boss, Calvin or Kenneth Cole Black may represent one or all four of these classifications. The same can be said for Casual, Cool Water, or Opium. It's the function of your nose to know the difference.
Yes there are some creative ways to engage your olfactory senses. However, until the fragrance comes in contact with your body you really don't know. You've got to let your body's chemistry bring the fragrance notes out so you'll know if that scent is right for you. Of course it always helps if someone is with you to serve as an impartial judge.
Once your nose and wrist have done their job then it's time to head for your home computer, or any computer with online access, and do some online shopping. There's no reason to spend gas money and have to pay department store prices, as opposed to saving 40% or more with just a click of your mouse. And should your nose and wrist find more fragrances, not to worry, the savings you'll realize will allow you to spend less and start your own signature fragrance collection.
