How to Test a Perfume Before You Buy: Avoid Scent Regret

Posted by Eugene Wallace

11 August 2025

Purchasing a fragrance is not only about choosing a bottle, but how a woman’s mood, style, and her skin harmonizes with the fragrance. In the era where we have luxury and exclusive perfumes, it always becomes a problem deciding what fragrance to select. “Scent regret” is a common problem for women, but there are ways how to properly test a premium fragrance before you put your final decision.

Confirm the Concentration

Always check whether you are using an eau de parfum, eau de toilette, or perfume. Each of these has a different concentration of scent and how long they will last on your skin. If sexy scent is on your list, then an eau de parfum or perfume is the best fit for you.

Use Unscented Skin 

Always put perfume on unscented skin and your inner skin of wrist or towards the inner side of your elbow. Wash your hands using scented lotions or body sprays prior to applying perfume to ensure you have a clean slate skin. 

Be Patient

While testing perfumes for women, there is no need to rush. Within the first ten seconds, you have no need to judge it. With time, a fragrance settles on skin and a combination of heart and base notes emerge. If after a few hours you are satisfied with how you smell, then you need not look any further.

Try Sample Sizes or Tester Packs

When searching for genuine perfumes from online stores, check out luxury testers for women or testers and sample packs. We have made it easy for you to explore top brand perfumes with our affordable luxury perfume sample offer at Sexy Perfumes. No need to commit to a full-size bottle waiting for it to be delivered. 

Consider the Setting 

When selecting perfumes, always try to test them out in the open air, away from the purchase locations such as busy malls or stores. Malls and stores often have harsh lighting and they are usually overcrowded. Temperature also plays a key role, especially with luxury floral perfumes, musk scents, or perfumes classified as Orientals; it warm with your body temp. 

FINAL TIP 

Trust your first instincts. The best perfume for women isn’t a trend or a flashy brand, it is a personal matter. You should feel good with how it is worn. If you are able to find the specific balance of a genuine scent with its staying power and personal bond, then you have surpassed a mere perfume. 
Make sure you check Sexy Perfumes and you will be utterly amazed at how far and wide your expectations will be surpassed.
