How to choose a fragrance by sign, but not lose yourself
Astrology is a great guide, but you shouldn’t take it as a strict instruction. If you are a Capricorn, but adore sweet aromas – that’s normal. The stars only suggest, but do not dictate. Often a person has not only a solar sign, but also strong influences of the Moon, Venus, Ascendant – they can also affect the taste in aromas.
Listen to yourself. It is important that the aroma reflects your mood, goals and desires. Today you can be a Libra and choose a light peony, and tomorrow you can feel like a Leo and perfume yourself with sandalwood and amber.
Where to find your scent according to your zodiac sign
Shops with niche and designer perfumes are the best place for experiments. There you can smell different aromas, learn the pyramid and understand which notes are closer to you. You can also use perfume selections based on astrology – some brands are already releasing collections based on the zodiac.
If you are choosing a fragrance as a gift, the zodiac will help narrow the circle and make the choice more personal. The main thing is to consider not only the sign, but also the lifestyle, age, and character of the person.
