Selecting the right perfume for you may be difficult so much more if it is for a friend. In buying a perfume you have several factors to consider.

First to consider would be your budget. Just how much are you willing to spend for a fragrance? Some perfumes especially the branded ones can sometimes be pretty pricey. At the start lay out your cards on how much you can afford so that you stay within your budget when shopping for perfumes.

Determine what type of perfume you wish to purchase. If you are selecting one for yourself decide on whether you want a scent that is light or strong. If you are buying for someone else it would be best to buy something that suits his or her taste. Try to find out what he or she likes in scents. If your female friend goes for floral scents then select from those floral scents that are available in the market. By giving your friend something you know she will like, most likely she will love your gift and definitely use it.

It is also important that you try the perfume on your skin, like maybe on your wrist to see how your body may react to the scent to determine its ultimate effect on your body. If you have noticed, perfume may smell differently when you are taking a whiff at it from a bottle than when it is applied on your wrist. This is due to several factors like skin types or the chemical ingredients the things we apply to our skin may contain. We have different skin types so a certain perfume make react differently on your skin. When testing scents on your skin allow a few minutes for the perfume to evaporate and leave that smell that it is meant to linger on your skin.

Do not purchase perfumes just because of its bottle or cute container. What matters most is what is inside the bottle and not the packaging. Do not select a perfume just because it has been popularized by the endorsement of a celebrity. Celebrities may promote certain brands but it doesn't mean that what suits Paris Hilton may also suit you.

Choose a perfume that fits your personality and self-image. It may be confusing at first but once you find that perfect scent you will feel prettier, sexier and confident while leaving a good scent on your trail.
