We’ve all heard of colour coordination, jewellery, even stretching as far as nails, but could matching your perfume with your outfit be the next big thing?

Every outfit has a certain vibe to it, whether it’s sensual, floral, flouncy or means business, there is a feeling that you intend on resonating off your clothing, so it would make perfect sense to have perfume, the main thing that materialises the scent of sensuous musk or floral tones, to complete the idea that your outfit is based around, turning every day clothing into a theatre production of beautiful scents, colours and feelings.
NYE Party. You’re going to be sporting exciting clothing to match your excited personality to enter the New Year with. The new and improved you that promises everything, and to help you along the way would be a bright but muted tone; 154 by Jo Malone would be the perfect accompaniment. With an eclectic scent to match the abundance of things that will happen in the year ahead (and on NYE…), the perfume includes “mandarin, grapefruit, lavender, basil, nutmeg and vetiver”.  

Business Meeting. You need something strong, confident, and ultimately a winning smell. Something that shouts to the room that you are here to get what you want, without being too suggestive, or too floral that someone could push you over like a daisy. Something like Armarni’s Acqua di Gioia with crushed mint, zest of Italian limone primo fellinelle, cedar, brown sugar and labdanum, giving you a fresh scent and ready for the day ahead.
Weekend away. For this you need a light hearted, free spirited flyaway perfume, something with no ties to reality, and a sense of escapism in each scent. Miss Dior would be your handbags absolute best friend when travelling, with top notes from mandarin, Turkish rose, Bulgarian rose, Indonesian Patchouli, amber and vanilla, the sleek scent reiterates class, and excitement from your rendezvous.


Summer daze. For this you need something almost dreamlike, a perfume that floats along with you leaving a trail so mysterious it’s almost like you’re leaving a path of flowers behind you. Magnolia Flora by Gucci would be the perfect bouquet of scents for this, with magnolia, freesia, green leaves, citrus zest, peony, musk, sandalwood and warm chocolate, you couldn’t ask for much more out of a flower garden perfume.


Table for Two. For this you most definitely desire something that lingers in the air once you’ve passed, that covers your body and leaves people wanting to smell more, something that only Armani Code could achieve. With orange flower, fresh ginger, honey-sandalwood, bitter orange, sambac jasmine, orange blossom, vanilla and honey, the scent defines any outfit you wish to wear, completing your attire for the evening flawlessly.


If you too have been converted into thinking that your perfume can say as much about your outfit as the actual clothes themselves, then join the clan, and begin your tailored journey of perfume coordination.
