Travel perfume atomiser
We all look forward to a holiday each year and sometimes we want to take our favourite perfume or aftershave with us. A travel perfume atomiser is the perfect solution for carrying our chosen scent. We often add a spritz during the evening, or a top up during the daytime if we have a lighter scent to wear.
Perfume has been around for thousands years and there are so many benefits to wearing your favourite scent.
Whilst many will purchase perfumes that come in fancy designer bottles, these can be very heavy when taking out for an evening or whilst travelling.
There is also the risk of spillage if a bottle accidentally breaks in your luggage or hand bag.
We try aiming for travelling light these days, especially with the cost of booking and enjoying a holiday.
Everything has to fit perfectly in the suitcase, and the last thing we need are heavy bottles of perfume adding to the weight restrictions.
We know that there are limits to taking liquids aboard an aircraft, (no more than 100ml )
If travelling away for a couple of weeks or even a month, our usual bottles will be too bulky for the journey.
Some may like to take more than one perfume so that we have a different scent for different days and whilst this is a nice idea, it also means taking several bottles.
Whilst the duty-free section at the airport is very tempting and it’s a great way of purchasing your favourite scent and save yourself some money, such bottles can be too heavy.
Larger perfume bottles and packaging can be too bulky to fit in the hand luggage.
At best, we all try to travel as light as possible when it comes to packing, just enough clothes for the duration of the holiday and not taking every pair of shoes in the wardrobe to match every outfit.
Something that I used to do quite often, until my husband complained that there wasn’t enough room in the suitcase for his clothes!
Apart from clothing, we have enough to take with us when it’s hair products, sun lotion, cosmetics etc. even more so when travelling with children.
That’s half the house packed up! If we can reduce the bulk of the weight, it’s a great idea to have your favourite perfume decanted into an atomiser for guaranteed space-saving.
Travel perfume atomiser
It’s worth investing in a travel perfume atomiser and the perfect accessory to take if you are travelling light, perhaps for a weekend away.
There’s no risk of the glass bottle of your favourite perfume accidentally smashing during travels.
There’s also the option of taking two or three on holiday with different fragrances in if you are going away for a few weeks.
These items are a reasonable price to purchase too so they’re an affordable option.
I think these are a wonderful idea when you can just take a small amount of your favourite scent without worrying about securely packaging a glass bottle in your suitcase.
We all know how rough some airlines treat our luggage! The clothes would smell divine but a costly scent isn’t cheap to replace. Another option too is taking a few samples of your favourite scent.
At FM WORLD, a perfume company that sell over 150 fragrances for both men and women, they’ve already thought about the need for perfume atomisers to decant your favourite scent.
They have a selection of three different colours:
■ Black
■ Green
■ Ecru
They are suitable for both men and women to use.
Ecru 
Green 
Black Product description
Your favourite perfume can always be with you, even if you’re travelling with a small amount of luggage. The twist-up atomiser with a glass refill keeps your favourite fragrance safe while travelling. They come in an elegant, matt aluminium 10ml container.
The clear container also allows customs at the airport to check the liquid contained inside the atomizer. They may spray a small amount or put the bottle into a specialized machine to detect the contents inside.
Compact
The compact atomiser fits perfectly inside your handbag or hand luggage so that it can be easily reached and applied throughout your journey. The gentle mist that is sprayed from the atomiser means that it sprays directly where you want it, without any wastage.
Leak proof
There is no worry about any of your favourite fragrance being distributed onto your holiday clothes or scenting every item in your hand luggage with a leak proof canister.
Capacity
When you slide the cover up, you can see exactly how much perfume you have in the container, unlike some perfume bottles that are not always clear glass.
Refillable
Unlike a bottle of perfume, these little canisters can be refilled with either the same perfume or a different fragrance.
Mixing scents
If you enjoy creating your own individual scent then the atomiser gives you the opposite to mix your own perfume. No one else will smell the same as you when you spritz your unique creation.
Other benefits
Another benefit of using a perfume atomiser is that they enable a very gentle spray and a small amount, which can be useful if you like to wear strong, perfumes or aftershave. The mist is distributed evenly without overloading the skin with fragrance.
The atomisers have been available to buy in shops and online for some time now and are becoming more popular.
Buy good quality
Try to choose atomisers that have glass vials as this helps to preserve the fragrance and reduces any chemical reaction with its container that could affect the strength and quality of its perfume.
FM WORLD atomisers are encased in aluminium, so this helps to make them more durable.
How to refill
The perfume atomisers from FM WORLD require a refill/dispenser syringe or nozzle to decant from one bottle to another.

Transfer your favourite perfume to a more suitable container for travelling or pop in your handbag for convenience. Other atomiser styles have a hole at its base where you can place it on top of your desired perfume nozzle after removing the spray cap and pumping the perfume directly into the canister. Some will also have an indicator on the side to show when it’s tank is full.
Take a look at the following article for how to clean your atomiser.
Conclusion
A travel perfume atomizer is an essential accessory for fragrance enthusiasts on the go. By allowing users to carry their favourite scents in a compact and spill-proof container, these atomizers offer a portable solution for maintaining a fresh and captivating fragrance throughout the day.
Whether it’s a business trip, holiday, or simply a daily commute, a travel perfume atomizer ensures that you can indulge in your preferred scent anytime, anywhere.
With a wide range of options available on the market, individuals can find the perfect atomizer to suit their needs and style.
Embracing the convenience and versatility of a travel perfume atomizer enables fragrance lovers to enhance their travel experiences and express their unique personalities through the power of scent.
So, pack your favourite fragrances in a travel perfume atomizer and embark on your next adventure with confidence and elegance.

FM World perfumes 2023
Working in the perfume world has its perks. Every other person I speak to loves fragrances. It’s one of those accessories that many of us don’t leave the home without. A little spritz on your way to work or your favourite for a night out completes an outfit as well as lifting our spirits.
With the latest release of their new catalogue on 1st April this year, let’s take a look at FM World perfumes for 2023.
We have 12 new fragrances from the Pure Royal collection to enjoy from the new releases.
What are Pure and Pure Royal perfumes?
Our Pure Royal range are an Eau de parfum that contain the highest quality of perfume oils and therefore they are slightly more expensive than the Pure range. That being said, they are still more affordable than many of the celebrity designer fragrances. The Pure Royal range come in a more expensive bottle, packaging and perfume oils to the Pure range.
■ 4 female – PURE ROYAL
■ 1 female – PURE
■ 3 unisex- PURE ROYAL
■ 2 male- PURE
■ 2 male Golden Edition PURE ROYAL
The GOLDEN EDITION PURE ROYAL perfumes
The FM Golden Edition fragrances come elegantly packaged in the same way as the Pure Royals selection. However, these selected perfumes have even more luxury, high class fragrance, oils and quality ingredients for a longer lasting perfume.
A brief insight into FM World
FM World began their journey in 2004 in Warsaw, Poland, by a man named Artur Trawinski, who I have had the pleasure of meeting during my time with the company. They started their MLM business selling perfumes and over the years have expanded to many other products, including cosmetics, health, vitamins, beverages, skincare, and more.
They are worldwide and have a passion for helping others with their everyday products at affordable prices.
One of the reasons that FM World is so popular is that anyone can sign up if they are over 16 and create a FREE account (UK) For other countries get in touch for your personal link.
You can sign up for a FREE account in the following countries:
Qatar, Georgia, Australia, Turkey, Ukraine, Lithuania, Latvia, United States of America, United Arab Emirates,Bulgaria, Greece,United Kingdom and Kazakhstan.
FM World gives everyone the opportunity to not only purchase their own products at cost price, but also to sell to others and earn an extra income.
They sell high quality, unique perfumes that are inspired by some of the most popular designer perfumes we see today. Some will compare our scents to the designer perfumes but It’s important to point out that FM perfumes are not copies of designer perfumes.
Fm have created affordable fragrances by using the same fragrance wheel as the designer companies use but unlike designer scents that use around 16% perfume oil, FM use 20%.
The reason they can afford to do this is that they don’t have celebrity endorsers, TV adverts, or sales representatives in shops to advertise their brand. This keeps their costs down and they have distributors like myself, who sell to friends, family and customers.
Why buy from the company ?
There are many men and women who have a designer scent or two sitting on their bedside cabinet. Many will only use that fragrance for a special occasion because of its price tag. We don’t want to be spraying a £70 bottle of Chanel no.5 when we are going to work.
Such fragrances get used for weddings or a night out and are used sparingly. When you purchase an FM perfume, you can spray it on daily wherever you might be going.
Even if you’re sitting at home on a Sunday, with no plans to go anywhere. Fm perfume’s give you the freedom to be able to spray your favourite scent no matter what you are doing.
All the fragrances apart from the INTENSE range, contain 20% pure perfume oil. When you look at celebrity perfumes, the majority will only have 16% perfume oil. By having a higher concentration of perfume oil means that the fragrance will last on your skin much longer, usually around 6 hours.
The INTENSE range consists of 30% pure perfume oil in the women’s scents. There is 24% oil in the men’s range. Being a stronger fragrance means that it will last around 8 hours and is suitable for those that don’t want to reapply during the day. An ideal solution for those attending a wedding or travelling on a long haul flight.

FM World consistently want to help the customer to save money on their fragrances, which is why they have created such a unique range. With over 150 scents to choose from, you really are spoilt for choice.

FM perfume 359 review
If you love sweet fragrances that have a touch of vanilla and jasmine, our FM perfume 359 review will cover all you need to know about this fragrance.
This was one of my very first fragrances that I purchased from Fm World and is still one of my favourites today.
It has a sweet and feminine scent on its first spray and the notes of jasmine are noticeable as soon as the scent settles on the skin.
The ideal scent to wear during any season I feel and most suitable for the spring/summer with its citrus based fragrance family.
With FM perfumes, they choose simplicity over anything fancy in order to keep the cost down for their customers.
This fragrance is suitable for a night out with the girls on a summer’s evening.
What does FM 359 smell like?
For those who are familiar with our scents, will already know that the fragrance notes are very similar to that of the designer fragrances.
Some will that they struggle to smell any difference between the designer scents and our perfumes.
This perfume has very similar notes to Alien Essence Absolue, a fragrance that was released in 2012 by Thierry Mugler.
Jasmine plant 
Vanilla scent It is a very popular scent, even today and FM have created a wonderful alternative without compromising quality and cost.
Of course, there will be many that will only buy the original of any product, especially when it comes to perfumes.
If you can step aside from the celebrity endorsed fragrances and try a sample of FM 359, I believe you will be pleasantly surprised.
FM 359 perfume sample Their bottles are simplistic and this one comes within the Pure Royal range.
Pure Royal Range
The pure royal perfumes contain 20% pure perfume oil. They use a more expensive oil than those of the Pure Range and the scent will last around 6 hours.
Not bad for a perfume that we can all afford and not worry about wasting the bottle or keeping it locked away in the cupboard for a suitable day.
Every day is special so we should be allowed to wear whatever scent we wish without feeling guilty that its price tag is a little high.
FM perfume 359 review
I love the instant whiff of jasmine as soon as I sprayed this on my skin and although it has notes of vanilla- a scent that I avoid as it’s far too sweet for my skin- I was pleasantly surprised with this one.
The vanilla base note isn’t overpowering and sits beautifully within the rest of the notes.
I find vanilla scents give me a headache so by choosing those that have this scent as their base, I know that I am not going to smell the sickly scent.
One that I experience commonly with heavily scented vanilla fragrances.
Although the base notes are what we need to be looking for when finding a perfume, having a touch of vanilla that balanced well with the rest of the notes made me realise that we do need to try a scent first.

Even if it contains a note or two that we don’t particularly like.
The beautiful floral and woody notes are just as popular with the males too. Many men like this scent on their partners as it is flirty, sweet and playful on the skin and awakens the senses.
When I first started to wear FM 359, I had a few of my friends commenting on my perfume and were asking what I had sprayed.
Some liked it so much that they ordered a bottle for themselves once they had tried a sample.
I always believe that a perfume scent should be noticeable but not overwhelming for the wearer or for those around.
This perfume does just that. It’s very much a delicate, gentle and feminine scent that captures the art of a woman beautifully.
Delightfully, this scent also comes in a 15ml slim bottle. Perfect for your handbag or holiday.
FM 359 15ml bottle Many men and women will buy fragrances for their fancy bottle design as well as the scent or will be influenced by the celebrity who wears it.
Whilst there is nothing wrong with this, when we learn how much of what we pay goes where, it can change our way of thinking.
■ Celebrity endorser
■ Packaging/bottle design
■ TV Advertising
We can all save so much money, especially nowadays when everything costs so much more and the prices keep on rising.
No one sees the bottle we purchase. They only ever smell the scent as it drifts passed.
After having this perfume on my skin for almost 30 minutes, I could instantly smell the ambergris and cashmere wood.
All the notes compliment one another and the feminine scent is a beautiful one to wear for any occasion.
FM359 is one of FM World’s most popular fragrances and its easy to see why.
FM 359 50ml perfume All the Pure Royal bottles have the same design and each comes with their own number to identify the scent.
Price: £34.00
Where to buy: FM World
Size of bottle : 50ml ( also available in 15ml )
My rating: 9.5 out of 10.
You can be assured that you are purchasing quality and genuine bottles when you buy from the company.
My favourite scent. FM 359 in its elegant yet simplistic bottle. For those who don’t like sweet notes and prefer a more sandalwood or tonka bean kind of scent, this perfume isn’t for you. Try FM 900 instead.
The smell gives the feel that summer is on its way and the BBQ s are within touching distance.
Floral dresses, summer sunshine and family sitting in the garden, fit perfectly with such an elegant and classic scent.
For those who wear it for an evening out, it will definitely have heads turning as the floral notes linger in the air.
Type: magnetic and intense
Fragrance notes:
Head: jasmine, heliotrope
Heart: iris root, cashmere wood
Base: ambergris, vanilla
Conclusion:
FM Perfume 359 is an exquisite fragrance that captivates the senses with its alluring blend of notes. Its opening bursts with refreshing citrus, while the heart reveals a floral symphony that evokes elegance and femininity.
The base notes provide a warm and sensual embrace, leaving a lasting impression on those who encounter it.
The longevity and sillage of FM Perfume 359 are commendable, making it a reliable companion for day or night. Whether you’re seeking a signature scent or looking to expand your fragrance collection, FM Perfume 359 offers a timeless and enchanting experience.
With its high-quality ingredients and affordable price tag, this fragrance truly exemplifies the concept of luxury without breaking the bank.
If the fragrance notes of Alien Essence Absolue are one of your favourite perfume scents, then try a sample of FM 359.
With very similar perfume notes, you will experience a wonderful scent that is kinder on the purse strings and will still get heads turning.

Rihanna’s favourite perfume
We don’t have to look very far to search for Rihanna’s favourite perfume or latest performance.
Google anything to do with the superstar and of late, the first video that pops up is her incredible performance on the Super Bowl on 12th February 2023.
Looking absolutely stunning in a pillar box red jumpsuit and heavily pregnant with her second child, we watch the hugely successful performance by the Barbadian singer.
Every social platform you visit will show the performer strutting her stuff to a mash up selection of her most successful tunes to date.
Watch Rihanna at the Super Bowl
var jtrack = “6cd6c12f”;
There won’t be many artists who can get away with such a performance on the Super Bowl as Rihanna has pulled off.
Being away from the limelight for the past four years, she certainly made an amazing return to the stage during the halftime show.
As she began her performance, suspended on a high platform, Rihanna started the show with a medley of hits such as We Found Love and Rude Boy.
With more than 100 back up dancers, wearing white hooded jumpsuits and sunglasses, the dancers themselves were superb.
Every dancer was in unison, every move showcasing every line of the song that she was singing, and it was near impossible to not watch over and over again, just to revisit such a unique performance.
Even the deaf sign language interpreter, Justina Miles, got recognition as she danced and signed her way through the chart topping tunes and went viral on social media with her own enthusiastic performance.
Rihanna would be forgiven for not jumping about the stage as she would normally do and still managed to look elegant, sexy and sophisticated with her subtle dance moves and powerful vocals.
Her back up dancers left no room for anyone to notice that the singing sensation’s moves were more subtle.
A 13 minute fast paced dancing and top 10 hits, gave the performance a world record for the most watched Super Bowl performance in history as it reached 118.7 million views.
That’ll take some beating!
The Queen of pop’s performance actually had more viewers than the game itself.
Her performance has been recreated in many forms by young and old on platforms such as TikTok and Instagram reels and are just as entertaining to watch and admire the skill of copying such fast moves and sultry vibes from the pop legend.
The unique dance moves, created by choreographer, Parris Goebel, A New Zealand singer, director and actress was seen being rehearsed by over 14 million people on TikTok with Rihanna’s backup dancers the Royal family Dance Crew.
A brief insight into the singers history
Rihanna, born Robin Rihanna Fenty on February 20th 1988, is a singer, songwriter, fashion designer, and actress.
The pop singer is one of the bestselling female artist of all time, selling over 215 million records around the world.
Rihanna has also launched the cosmetics brand Fenty beauty, has appeared in several major acting roles and the fashion world, that saw her design clothing from lingerie, to sports wear and leather goods.
Rihanna-Reb’l Fleur
In August 2011, the superstar released her first fragrance called Reb’l Fleur to the United Kingdom.
With the very fitting tagline of ‘Bad Feels So Good‘, Rihanna creates a beautiful scent in a uniquely designed bottle.
According to online sources, her grandmother used to call her ‘Rebel Flower‘ and so she began layering fragrance notes to create a scent that spoke a thousand words and said “Rihanna was here”.

With a beautiful selection of fragrance notes, the bottle design alone reminds me of the Eiffel Tower as it tapers inwards to form a vertical shaped bottle.
RIHANNA REB’L FLEUR 30ML EAU DE PARFUM SPRAY BRAND NEW & SEALED
Top notes : plum, berries, peach
Middle notes: Hawaiian hibiscus flower, coconut water, violet, tuberose
Base notes: Vanilla, amber, musk
“Very long-lasting” said one purchaser.
“A beautiful exotic scent ” said another.
Rihanna’s favourite perfume
More and more celebrities are creating their own fragrances, as well as endorsing other brands.
It may come as a surprise though but there are many celebrities who don’t actually wear the perfume they endorse.
Some will go for a reasonably priced scent whilst others have more of an expensive taste.
Kilian-Love, Don’t Be Shy
Besides endorsing her own fragrance, Rihanna has another favourite scent that she loves to wear and get heads turning.
Love by Kilian with a tagline ‘Don’t Be Shy‘ seems to fit perfectly for such a carefree, creative and talented star.
If you ever wanted to smell as good as a pop star, then this is the fragrance for you.
Launched in 2007, it may not be a fragrance that you have heard of before, but it certainly packs a punch when other celebrities comment on how good Rihanna smells when wearing it.
It possibly goes without saying that it is not the most affordable perfume on the market, but do you expect anything less from Rihanna’s taste in designer perfume ?
Fragrance notes
Top notes: pink pepper, bergamot, neroli and coriander
Middle notes: jasmine, orange blossom, honeysuckle, Iris, rose.
Base notes: vanilla, sugar, musk, caramel, civet, and labdanum
The French perfume is very sweet for those that love this type of fragrance and has a feminine but simplistic bottle with a gold top and is also refillable.
Something that Kilian wanted to introduce and sustain with his belief that “True luxury should last forever”.
Kilian Hennessy wanted to launch a brand that lifted the perfume industry back to how it first began in the late 19th and early 20th century.
He added his own twist and bought his own memories to life in each bottle.
Other Kilian perfumes available on eBay
The master of such scents believes that perfume isn’t only for those who wear it to be noticed or seduced, but also as a protective layer that we can wear to shield us from the outside world.
Over the years, he has created a simplistic line of fragrances that are strong, long-lasting, noticeable and speak power on their first spray.
Conclusion:
Rihanna’s favourite perfume is a testament to her exceptional taste and keen sense of style.
As a multifaceted artist and influential figure in the fashion and beauty industry, Rihanna has effortlessly crafted a fragrance that embodies her essence.
Through her brand, Fenty Beauty, she has created a perfume that captivates the senses, evoking a sense of confidence, empowerment, and femininity.
With its unique blend of notes and its elegant packaging, Rihanna’s favourite perfume truly stands out as a representation of her artistic vision and enduring legacy.
For fragrance enthusiasts and fans alike, experiencing Rihanna’s favourite perfume is an opportunity to immerse oneself in the essence of her extraordinary journey and be inspired by her unwavering commitment to self-expression and creativity.
If you want to smell like a superstar and have heads turning like Rihanna, try a sample of the perfume before you purchase a bottle.
It’s a great way to know if the scent will suit your skin without committing to a 50ml fragrance that could sit in the cupboard for years.

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.

Julia Roberts’ favourite perfume
Whenever we hear someone mention Julia Roberts, we perhaps think of some of her most iconic films that she has played the leading role.
I personally always think of Pretty Woman. The iconic film that had us all believing that fairy tales do come true.
The American actress has been the face of Lancôme since 2012 and is a wearer of the famous La Vie Est Belle alongside another favourite perfume, Spring Flower by Creed.
A brief insight into the actors’ history
Born in 1967, to parents who had both worked in showbiz and were talented actors, with Julia Roberts’ mother being an acting coach and the couple met during their performance in the play George Washington Slept Here back in 1955.
Although the Hollywood actor started her career in the late 80s, she became a household name when she headlined alongside her co-star Richard Gere in the worldwide box office hit Pretty Woman.
Since then, she has starred in many successful box office hits such as My Best Friend’s Wedding and Notting Hill. Another two fantastic films that have us laughing and crying.
The list is endless for her lucrative appearances in many films and has seen her play a variety of characters within her role of comedy and drama films.
Julia Roberts signed a deal with Lancôme in 2010 which began with her being the face of their cosmetics line.
The fresh-faced beauty has caught the eye of both men and women over the years as her gorgeous looks never seem to age.She has been Lancôme’s global ambassador ever since.

Zendaya’s favourite perfume
With so many celebrities endorsing perfumes, it’s one of the reasons why such products sell so well. The fragrance world is growing each year and another celebrity that we’re keen to learn about is Zendaya.
Zendaya’s favourite fragrance is Lancôme Idole and it’s easy to see why, so who is she?
A brief insight into the actress/singers’ history
The world is full of beautiful women, and this American actress, dancer and singer is no exception.
At the age of 27,( born in 1996) she has the world at her feet. She has received Golden Globe awards and two Primetime Emmy awards. Zendaya Marée Stoermer Coleman began her career as a back – up dancer and a child model for Macy’s Melvyn’s and Old Navy.
She went on and made her television debut in 2010, starring in the Disney Channel sitcom Shake It Up and has featured in several films since then.
Her feature film debut came in 2017 playing alongside her current partner, Tom Holland in the film Spider-Man : homecoming.
Just one of the fantastic Marvel films that both myself and my two sons have enjoyed watching. She also starred in the films’ sequels.
Marvel film-Spiderman Another popular film, based on a true story,The Greatest Showman sees Zendaya portraying a trapeze artist who falls in love.
The film was a massive hit when it was released in 2017 and is still very much watched today.
Zendaya’s talent doesn’t stop there though. She has also taken the journey into the music world with her delicate vocals on the hit record Rewrite The Stars from the same film/musical.
Her biggest success as a musician, collaborating with Zac Efron. A song that reached the top 20 charts.
Zendaya’s favourite perfume
Lancôme Idole
This is a popular scent from the Lancôme range of fragrances. Being a fairly strong eau de parfum that lasts for around eight hours, a light spray is recommended so as not to overwhelm.
Any fragrance should be subtle on the skin.
Lancôme Idole was created in 2019 with a bottle that shows femininity, class and simplicity.
This female scent doesn’t necessarily need lots of sparkle and glamour to be popular.
After all, we don’t wear the bottle. It’s the scent that matters.
On its first spray, this fragrance gives an instant hit of rose, musk and fruit notes.
It is a very womanly fragrance and has a strong kick to it. As the fragrance settles, there’s a definite scent of Pink Pepper and Bergamont.
The White Mask and Cedar are very noticeable as the base notes come through later on.
It has a very clean scent with such popular fragrance notes.I’m sure it will be a hit for many women who like to make a statement yet still have that touch of class and summer vibe.
As the name suggests ‘Idole‘ brings the fresh fragrance to life for any women who dares to be outspoken, strong and empowered.
I personally would say that it is a more suitable scent for an evening out as opposed to daytime perfume.
It might be a little too heavy for perhaps an office or retail shop working environment.
Lancôme know how to create a variety of scents. When we compare this one with La Vie Est Belle, there is a noticeable difference as the latter is a much sweeter and more versatile fragrance.
related article: The best perfume for a wedding day
That said, there are plenty of women who love strong scents and can carry them off well without being overpowering.
There are lots of positive reviews online from customers who have bought this classic scent.
“Beautiful, long-lasting and elegant ” says one. “Perfect for the confident women”
” Lasts all day and smells so fresh and sexy” said another.
This fragrance also comes in a refillable bottle that can be taken to selected refill points of sale so you will never have to throw your bottle away.
Zendaya is Lancôme’s youngest endorser for the company and is not only a wearer of their fragrance but also the face of Lancôme Lash Idole mascara.
Fragrance notes in Lancôme Idole
Top notes: pear, bergamot, pink pepper.
Middle notes: rose, Jasmine.
Bass notes: white musk, vanilla, patchouli, cedar
Bergamot 
Cedar 
Jasmine With such a wonderful selection of fragrance notes, Lancôme has captured the perfect scent and combined the perfect ingredients that gives this perfume its uniqueness.

Johnny Depp fragrance
Whenever we see an advert for Sauvage by Christian Dior, we instantly know without even looking up at the TV screen, that it’s a Johnny Depp fragrance.
Dior and Depp teamed up back in 2015, when Sauvage was first launched. It was a huge fragrance back then and still is to this day.
Watch the advert on You tube
With a heavy-metal theme, as soon as the advert for this fragrance starts and Johnny Depp playing the guitar, the music sets the scene for a dusty and solitary drive to the dry heat and barren surroundings of the desert.
Depp’s husky voice can be heard over the scene as he tells the story of looking for something that he cannot see but can feel.
He removes a spade from the boot of his car and approaches a deserted area, under the watchful eye of a wolf standing proud on the roof of the Dodge Challenger.
He then starts to dig a hole in the sand and proceeds to remove his necklace and bracelets and drops them into the hole.
Depp has always come across as a mysterious and intriguing actor that tends to play certain parts in films where he can almost hide behind his own persona.
Being the face and a wearer of one of the most iconic Dior colognes to date, Depp reflects the fragrance perfectly when we learn of the perfume notes behind this classic men’s scent.
Fragrance notes :
Top notes: pepper, Calabrian bergamot
Middle notes : Sichuan Pepper, lavender, pink pepper, vetiver, geranium, patchouli, elemi
Base notes : Ambroxan, labdanum, cedar
Dior A brief insight into the actors’ history
Born John Christopher Depp II, Depp first appeared on our screens in the film A Nightmare on Elm street in 1984.
One that I have to admit I have never watched as I don’t like horror films! In fact, I don’t like anything scary on screen!
The first I really knew of this unique actor was Johnny’s incredible role in the romantic fantasy film Edward Scissorhands in 1990. A film that is much more suitable for my eyes and mind.
Edward Scissorhands He almost seems to be one of those actors that you never really get to see what he truly looks like.
He has played a few unusual characters that make his appearance look contrasting from his actual features.
Especially for films such as Edward Scissorhands and Alice In Wonderland.
Alice In Wonderland In Edward Scissorhands, a young Depp’s face was mysteriously hidden behind pale and scarred skin and dark circles around his eyes.
The character who wanted to touch but couldn’t and despite looking scary and weird, was indeed a gentle man who fell in love.
15 years later I am then watching his performance in Charlie and The Chocolate Factory in 2005.
Another film that captures Depp in a different light once again as he portrays a candy maker who guides children around a sweet factory.
In a bid to find a child who avoids all the temptations that a sweet factory brings, he indeed finds a good person who passes the test to become an heir to the factory business and ‘winning’ the golden ticket.
Having many a Golden Globe Award, academy and BAFA awards, Depp is also a keen musician.
His mother bought him a guitar at the age of 12 and he started playing in a few bands.
He clearly had talent as when he attempted to return to school two weeks after he had dropped out, the principal saw potential and told him to continue to follow his dream of becoming a musician.
Sauvage by Dior is a gorgeous and very masculine Fougere scent that instantly smells of your classic scented aftershave.
Sauvage by Dior The type that you recognise as soon as you walk past a male that’s wearing it. The strong and bold notes reveal instant sex appeal and it’s definitely a head turner.
Even after its first spray, the initial pepper and Calabrian bergamot scent lingers and we’re left with a crisp, clean and welcoming cedar and lavender sillage.
It’s a very appealing, a touch fruity and definitely wearable scent.

When you click on links to various merchants on this site and make a purchase, this can result in this site earning a commission. Affiliate programs and affiliations include, but are not limited to, the eBay Partner Network.
Why do we love Sauvage so much?
Dior has created a sophisticated scent in a clean, and simple styled bottle.
There’s no fancy design or cap to grab our attention to purchase on first sight.
It only takes a sniff of this wonderful scent to have men and women falling in love with the iconic fragrance.
Dior wanted a scent that matched the scene of nature, earth and have a distinctive yet popular scent.
‘Sauvage ‘ is a French word that means ‘wild’ or ‘unspoiled’ and refers to nature and animals.
If we use the word to describe a person, the meaning is totally different and refers to someone being ‘unsociable’ or ‘fierce’.
There’s definitely nothing fierce or unsociable about this fragrance. Quite the opposite.
Not a bad price either for a designer fragrance. It’s one that won’t break the bank.
There are samples available on eBay which is great to have the option of trying before a purchase.

Harry Styles’ favourite fragrances
Aah… Harry Styles. Who hasn’t fallen in love with the 29-year old charismatic pop star? He has certainly become the man of the moment of 2022/2023.
With three Grammys and six BRIT Awards to be proud of during his career as a solo artist, we’re curious to find out what Harry Styles’ favourite fragrances are.
A brief insight to the pop singers’ history
Harry styles first showed up on our screens as a curly haired 16-year-old contestant on The X Factor back in 2010.
He was formed as part of the hugely successful pop group One Direction, with Liam, Niall, Louis and Zayn, after the judges decided that he lacked experience to become a solo artist.
After the huge success of one of the biggest boy bands in the world, Styles embarked on his own successful career as a solo artist in 2016 and has seen the past 13 years grow into the huge success that he is today.
With sell out concerts, film debuts and an endless stream of pop/soft rock to be proud of, Harry has become an endearing, humorous and stylish icon that young and old alike follow.
There seems to be no stopping the charming and entertaining lad from Worcestershire, England, who first began his music career as the lead singer of a band called White Eskimo during his school years, alongside working part-time at a bakery in Holmes Chapel.
After winning seven Brit awards, releasing countless numbers of top charting music, the One Direction group went on hiatus in 2016.
Harry has turned into a style icon that sees him wearing the likes of Gucci, and Louis Vuitton clothing.
Wearing nail polish, flowery/glitter blouses and shirts has always been a talking point for many journalists and interviewers.
Styles says the reason he wears unique clothing is that he feels it “looks cool “ and we have to agree.
There aren’t many males celebrities that can carry off such flamboyant outfits that somehow look better on him than on women!
Fans around the globe love him no matter what and he enjoys the freedom of being able to wear what he likes.
After all, it shouldn’t be about what other people think, right ?
When it comes to style, Harry certainly stands out in a field of his own.
From the designer clothing, the most talked about trademark floppy hairstyle, cheeky charm and a great choice of designer fragrances to wear, it’s no wonder why people have fallen in love with him.
Harry Styles favourite fragrances
Many celebrities have a signature fragrance and Harry is no exception.
The face of the Gucci campaign, sees Styles signature scent Memoire D’une Odeur by Gucci released in 2019.
A gender neutral fragrance with its simplistic designed bottle, it balances well to match a scent that is suitable for both men and women.
Harry already had this one as a favourite scent before becoming the face behind the fragrance campaign.

Its clean, almost Ancient Greek style pillar and mint green glass bottle shows that Gucci wanted to keep this fragrance neutral yet have enough of an impact for both gender.
Something that has become very popular in the fragrance world over the past few years.
Anything goes nowadays.
The more catchy and flamboyant an artist is, the more they seem to create positive attention and a sense of freedom for others to do the same.
Harry Styles was chosen to be the face of Memoire D’une Odeur due to his way of seizing the day and having a strong family support that give him freedom of expression and a carefree approach.
Whilst this fragrance may not scream out like many others in the perfume world, it certainly makes an impression.
The perfect scent to wear during any season and wears well in the heat.
A suitable daytime fragrance, Memoire D’une Odeur brings us closer to the summer weather yet also fits well as a night time scent for its energetic and fun appeal on a night out.
The celebrity loves this fragrance so much that he admits that he goes to bed wearing it. “I like a fragrance with some emotion behind it “-Harry styles.
That’s love!
Memoire D’une Odeur available in different sizes and strengths on eBay.

A perfume that was created to leave a powerful impression, this scent is also unisex and is the most popular of the Tom Ford collection.
The tobacco and wood infused scent launched in 2007, is also part of the “As It Was” singers’ collection.
It’s of little surprise that a world superstar would opt for one of the best-selling luxury fragrances to date.
It has elegance, seduction, and sophistication all in one bottle and the notes blend seamlessly into one another.
Tobacco Vanille is a strong, creamy and warm scent and definitely one to spray sparingly so that it doesn’t overpower.
Its all about making an impression first and then catching the gorgeous scent midway for maximum effect.
This fragrance sits in the oriental family and has notes of spices and vanilla. Although it is a gender neutral perfume, some would say that it is a little too masculine so it’s worth trying a sample before you buy.
Fragrance notes:
Top notes: tobacco leaf, spices
Middle notes: tonka bean, tobacco blossom, vanilla, cacao
Base notes : dried fruits and woody notes.
Tobacco Vanille is more suitable for wearing during the cold, winter months as it loses its appeal with the heat and sun and is an acquired taste if you love woody and strong fragrances.

Aromatherapy oils
Aromatherapy oils have so many benefits and their scents are uplifting and gorgeous too. Lavender, peppermint, rosemary, lemon etc can all have a positive effect on our mind, body and well-being.
What is aromatherapy ?
“You must not rely on the information on our website as an alternative to medical advice from your doctor or other professional healthcare provider“
Whether we are treating or preventing an illness, aromatherapy is a popular therapy that many of us will go to when other methods such as taking medicine are not the chosen option for us.
Headaches, anxiety and skin inflammation can all benefit from the use of aromatherapy oils. Breathing in an essential oil has a big impact on the emotional part of the brain as the molecules hit the olfactory nerves and send a message to help with a particular aliment.
They can also be mixed with carrier oils to be applied safely to the skin.
Many of us will try to avoid taking medication for things such as a headache or buying expensive creams to alleviate dry or sensitive skin conditions.
There are lots of ways that we can use aromatherapy oils.
Scented sticks, body, creams, and lotions, diffusers or adding salts to add to the bath and facial steamers all work well.
Lots of these scents are also used in the perfumes we wear today.
By using a carrier oil such as coconut or jojoba to mix with your essential oils is the safest way to apply to the skin.
