Perfumes

Perfume is far more than just a cosmetic product, it is a form of non-verbal communication. Its significance is deeply rooted in our biology: the sense of smell is the only sense directly connected to the limbic system in the brain – the part where emotions are processed and memories are stored. A single whiff of a fragrance can therefore instantly transport us to another time or place. In everyday life, perfume acts as an ‘invisible calling card’. It emphasises one’s personality, signals a sense of personal grooming and can have a massive influence on a person’s charisma. A suitable fragrance often gives the wearer a boost of self-confidence and ensures a more assured demeanour in social or professional situations.
