The benefits of wearing perfume
In this article, I want to find out from you, the reader if you wear perfume and to also share with you the benefits of wearing perfume.
It’s no surprise that the perfume industry is huge. Valued at 50.85 billion USD in 2022, its annual growth rate of 5.9% is expected from this year (2023) to 2030.
Every other person is wearing a fragrance, whether it be a celebrity endorsed perfume or aftershave, cheap copies of the designer fragrances or ones bought from companies that sell designer inspired fragrances such as FM WORLD.

The benefits of wearing perfume
There is a long list why many of us will wear a fragrance from giving confidence to going for a job interview so let’s take a look at the benefits of wearing the perfect scent.
Confidence
Everyone needs confidence at some point in their lives, and whilst some almost have it naturally built into them, some need a little extra help to give them the positive boost that anything is possible.
Confidence does come from within and often from an early age.
Those around us can have a huge impact on how we feel whether it be negative or positive.
As we get older, we grow in confidence as things that were once difficult seem to become easier as we age.
A Spritz of your favourite perfume at the start of the day is almost like putting on your best clothes and doing your hair.
We always feel more confident when we look smart and wearing a gorgeous scent helps to tweak that confidence enough to get through the day.
Memories
Life is full of memories, good and bad and wearing a perfume that perhaps reminds you of a place that you loved visiting or a loved one that’s passed away or a happy time in your life.
Such perfume can bring back those memories that can also assist with how we feel inside and our confidence as mentioned earlier.
Date night
Whether it’s a first date with someone new or a partner who you’ve been married to for 20 years, that extra boost of your favourite perfume works wonders.
Even better if you know the kind of fragrance that they enjoy on you can set the scene for a lovely evening for two.
Job interview:
Over the years, many job interviews have been conducted by telephone but at some point, we still need to see an employer face-to-face.
It’s not just about the smart clothing, clean-shaven and tidy hairstyle that counts and makes a good impression.
By wearing your favourite perfume or aftershave to a job interview isn’t 100% guarantee that you’ll get the job by any means, but the employer will certainly remember you for the scent you’re wearing.
It goes without saying that less is more so a light spray of a delicate fragrance is most suited.
Uplifting:
For many of us that wear a fragrance on a daily basis, will know that it becomes part of our daily routine.
Just like showering and spraying on deodorant, adding a touch of our favourite scent is uplifting and puts us in a better mood.
Some, like myself, will wear perfume as a daily occurrence, no matter what we’re doing.
Whether it’s going straight to work or a little spritz on a Sunday just for chilling around the home, it’s a part of us and there are so many fragrances that are suitable when the occasion doesn’t require anything too strong.
Body sprays are also a very good choice. If perfume seems a little too much for that particular day.

Freshen clothes
With the cost of living nowadays, sometimes we are encouraged to wear the same pair of jeans or the same jumper for more than one day so that the washing machine isn’t on longer than needed.
Some people will therefore spray their clothes with perfume to give them that fresh feel to wear on the second day.
I would recommend spraying the perfume into the air and walking through with your clothes on rather than spraying your clothes directly, just to make sure that the mist doesn’t damage any of the fabric.
Personal hygiene
There are lots of products on the market today and layering fragrances has become popular too.
Sometimes just spraying a deodorant isn’t enough before we set off for the day so little spritz of perfume or aftershave can make us smell even cleaner and fresher.
Signature scent
Lots of men and women have a signature scent, which they will wear every day without fail. There are, of course benefits to this.
Having a familiar smell to those around makes you more recognisable.
I would always say if you do have a signature scent, be mindful of how much you spray.
If you are wearing it every day you are likely to be very used to the scent yourself and therefore won’t smell its strength.
This can lead to more of the perfume being sprayed and becoming a little overwhelming for others around you.
Aromatherapy
The benefits of aromatherapy are huge. From skincare issues to health to our well-being.
Lots of perfumes are built up with fragrance notes that we use in aromatherapy too.
So for example, if you need a fragrance that is calming, then choose a perfume with lavender Ylang -Ylang or bergamot.

Desirability
I remember the days of being young and single and going out to nightclubs and pubs with my friends and carefully choosing a nice fragrance that could potentially enchant the opposite sex.
Something soft, and not too overpowering, yet a fragrance that would last the whole evening so that I didn’t feel the need to reapply.
The use of pheromone fragrances is also popular to increase desirability, and these sense work with your natural body odour.
Use Pheromones to attract the opposite sex
Similar to hormones, pheromones work outside of the body. They increase sexual arousal in individuals.
A better nights sleep
Some people are known to wear a fragrance in bed to help with a restful nights sleep.
Perfumes with lavender, frankincense, and Ylang Ylang can help to reduce stress, switch off the mind, provide relief from mental health conditions, and therefore let your mind switch off and your body relax to get a good nights rest.
Advertising:
If, like myself, you work within the perfume industry, wearing a fragrance and a different one every day can help to sell a product.
Someone could comment on what perfume you are wearing and this gives you the opportunity to let them try a sample if you have one or a spray of the bottle if you have one in your handbag.
I always recommend trying a perfume before you purchase, no matter how much the perfume costs as not all scents are suitable on everybody’s skin.
Eliminate odours
Smokers that may have cigarette smoke lingering on their clothes, may feel that spraying perfume regularly on their skin, will omit such odours.
Perfume can indeed mask unwanted smells as long as the fragrance is not sprayed too heavily.
This can sometimes lead to the worst mixture of scents so be careful if you try this.
You don’t even need to be a smoker to catch the smell of nicotine on your clothes and hair either.
A short visit to a customers home recently where they were both heavy smokers, left my clothes, coat and hair smelling of tobacco.
Not a pleasant aroma and one that I have to quickly fix. I used a few sprays of FM World’s body spray into the air and I walked through the mist.

Smell gorgeous
It’s as simple as that. To smell gorgeous. Many people wear a fragrance just because they like to smell feminine or masculine and it takes them to a happy place.
Especially when those around them complement their choice of fragrance and say “you smell nice. What are you wearing “?
Express individuality
We all like to be unique in many ways, so by having a certain fragrance or choice of fragrances, puts us in that bubble of individuality.
A place where we can feel uplifted, confident, sensual and glamorous, just from a spritz of a bottle.
Everyone loves a compliment too and if you happen to be wearing a popular scent the others recognize, and you receive a compliment, it can only be a good thing.

Wearing perfume for health and wellness
It’s a well-known fact that wearing our favourite fragrance can lift our mood but can wearing perfume for health and wellness be such a thing ?
We know how good we feel when we’ve woken up, getting ready for the day and we reach for our favourite scent to match our outfit or plans for the day.
Lifting the mood with perfume
That first spritz of your favourite brand, the one fragrance you always reach for that lifts the mood, gets you ready for the challenges of the day and reminds you of happy times.
Travelling abroad, sitting on the plane, going out for a meal to your favourite restaurant with friends can have a huge impact on our wellness and health, more than we realise.
We certainly don’t apply a scent to have the opposite effect to dampen the mood.
Fragrances today have a wonderful ability to lift our spirits, get us in the right frame of mind for what the day ahead has in store and genuinely make us feel happy, loved and content.
We all have a choice of which perfume or aftershave to wear. We are all unique and wear what suits us best.
So what about when a company create perfumes specifically infused with healing energy to bring out the best in all of us?
The perfume world has always been popular and very competitive.
Designer perfumes
Designer fragrances have taken the world by storm and over the years with the global perfume market size being valued at USD 31.4 billion in 2018 and expected to expand at a CAGR ( compound annual growth rate) of 3.9% by 2025. Incredible !
It’s a very lucrative business and we have seen many celebrities at the forefront of creating their own perfume line and signature fragrances.
With such a competitive market, it can be very difficult to stand out from the rest. New ideas are constantly being created, in order to keep the perfume industry at the top.
Over the years we have seen ‘copies ‘ of designer fragrances and cheaper versions.
We have also seen unique perfumes and aftershaves that carry similar scents to that of the designers, with their own style by FM World.
Whatever fragrance that we have purchased over the years, whether it be a signature scent or a different one every day, the pure whiff of delicate fragrance notes in our chosen bottle always lifts the mood.
When health and wellness are mentioned, we automatically think of eating healthy, carrying out regular exercise and taking supplements to give us the uplift and help we need.
Many of us don’t compare feeling happy, loved and content with using a bottle of our favourite spritz. Why would we? We simply spray and get on with the day ahead.
Perhaps when someone comments on how lovely we smell it gives us that confidence boost but generally we forget about what we’re wearing and the day passes.
Companies find it extremely difficult to come up with something unique in such a busy space in the fragrance world.
Many of the designers have previously come from the fashion world such as Chanel who created the most iconic perfume, Chanel no.5.
Vyrao- The world’s first energy-infused perfume brand
Fast forward to 2022 and we now have a new fragrance line which is unique to all the other brands that we currently have on the market.
Fragrances created by a lady called Yasmin Sewell who has gone one step further in the art of creating unique fragrances
She has created a brand that not only smell gorgeous but each perfume has healing and wellness properties.
On top of this, the fragrances have been created as unisex.
In a world where both men and women take pride in their appearance and the products they use, it’s refreshing that gender-neutral scents have become so popular.
Who would have thought that such a creation would be so successful ?
Yasmin has been in the fashion industry over the past few decades as an influential role and has come up with the idea that perfumes can be created not just for their scent but also for fusing healing and wellness benefits in a bottle too.
Her brand name Vyrao was created.
A selection of five natural fragrances that use organic plant and flower essences to bring out positive emotions and well-being.
Each bottle contains its own Herkimer diamond crystal, known to raise, clear and amplify energy.
Clever ingredients such as lemon, mandarin, vanilla, musk and waterlily give an uplifting mood, a sense of clarity and help in reducing anxiety.
The passion behind creating an energy-infused brand is a simple one
Yasmin created Vyrao because she wanted to deliver a product that channels energy.
Scents are a powerful thing.
When we wear our favourite perfume that we know others are going to comment on, it lifts our mood, creates wonderful memories and gives us the feel-good factor that we all desire.
Perfume scents are so powerful and creating bottles that shift our mood positively can only be a good thing.
Approaching such a creation from a different angle to what we are used to, gave Yasmin Sewell a new perspective on the perfume industry and opened up a new opportunity.
Yasmin has previously been involved in different forms of energetic healing including reiki.
Moving her skills to a different sector whilst still using her healing skills gave her the chance to create perfume with wellness at its forefront.
The scents we are already used to in our perfumes and aftershaves are led by mixing a blended combination of scents that work well and compliment one another.
Creating a brand that has well-being as its main target means that the creator is following a different strategy.
The ingredients are different for a product that requires a perfume that gives us a healing benefit as apposed to a floral, oriental or fruity base purely for a beautiful smell.
The packaging alone already gives off calm but also energetic vibes.
Bold, solid and vibrant colours are used to give a degree of calmness and solidarity. The simplistic shaped bottles are eye -catching to say the least.
The vibrancy in very bottle gives an instant lift to the mood 
Every glass bottle connects the buyer in some way
Not only do the bottles have bold colours that catch the eye but the names of the perfumes such as Witchy Woo, have a uniqueness about them as well.
We already know that a popular scent gets people’s heads turning so having one that has the benefits of wellness and feeling good, is bound to be just as popular.
Alongside creating unique fragrances, Yasmin Sewell has also combined candles and incense sticks.
Take yourself onto a new journey with a fragrance created to enhance your wellness and feel the difference with this enchanting creation that is Vyrao.
The use of bold colours is a clever way to enhance the well being in us Affiliate disclosure
