Ralph Lauren Perfume Is Probably Not Worn By Ralph Lauren

17 09 2007

You never know, but odds are Ralph Lauren does not wear of the members of his Ralph Lauren perfume line up. Like clothes, some smells seem more suitable for women than for men. Menthol, saddle leather and cigar smoke are considered masculine smells, for example. When you were a little girl, you ever put on your Dad’s Old Spice? Made you gag after a few minutes, didn’t it? The differing body chemistry of the sexes predetermines what scents are better on female pulses and what are better on male.

Some Specifics

The name behind Ralph Lauren perfumes is the same Ralph Lauren who makes all those high prices clothes – or, at least, the labels. Anyway, Ralph Lauren was not content to rest on his laurel colored jeans and looked for new ways to get into women’s pants…pockets, where the credit cards are.

Ralph Lauren perfumes come in a variety of flavors because the world is filled with a wide variety of women. Besides, one perfume cannot handle all of the moods and situations a woman might find herself in. You can choose from Ralph Lauren perfumes entitles Glamorous, Glamorous Daylight, Lauren, Romance, Polo Sport for women, Turquoise, Cool, Ralph, Ralph Rocks, Hot and Safari for women.

Where To Go

If all of this information gets your nostrils twitching, you can head on over to a fine department store or a crappy department store of your choice. You can also shop at their online branches. You can also shop at perfume specialty websites, which tend to be cheaper. The only problem is that you can’t try the Ralph Lauren perfumes before you buy. Your best bet is to go to a real world store, try a Ralph Lauren perfume there and then actually buy the stuff online.

Online shopping can be done with credit card or PayPal, depending on each store. Some online shops still take checks, whether they are real world checks or electronic checks. Before you buy, check to see that the online perfume store has a Privacy Policy and some sort of customer service phone number or email. You could also try your luck with online auction sites like eBay that often sell perfume. Ralph Lauren perfumes are very pricey. If you have your heart set on a particular Ralph Lauren perfume, wait before buying it. Or better yet, wait until your birthday, anniversary or winter holiday rolls around and get some other schmuck to buy it.

An Antique Perfume Bottle Is A Much Treasured Possession

12 09 2007

Essentially, these bottles serve to appeal to the customer into buying the perfume and thus must be attractive and sure to catch the eye; so, it really should not surprise anyone that perfume bottling business is huge and amongst the many manufacturers of such bottles, the name of Pochet SA that is a French company stands out.

The numbers of different types of perfumes is quite huge which means that there is need to have at least those many different perfume bottles as well.

Pochet SA Is A Most Famous Bottle Maker

If you have ever bought a bottle of Givenchy, Coty, Dior, Yves Saint Laurent and Calvin Klein or any other equally famous brand of perfume, chances are that the perfume bottle has been made by Pochet which today is a company that descended from Verreries du Courval and also Pochet DeRoche that each have many years of experience in making glass and porcelain items. In fact, the first perfume bottle that contained designer perfume that was commissioned by Empress Eugenie in the year 1858 and was the work of Verreries du Courval.

The means of making a perfume bottle changed and during the thirties they began to be made by machine and most of the inspiration for such bottles seemed to come from Hollywood, while a company named Lalique that was subsequently bought by Pochet had an excellent bottle that contained the 1932 classic scent named Je Reviens that essentially resembled a skyscraper from New York and the whole thing came in a package in a chrome finished box.

Another interesting feature of the perfume bottle is that long after the scent has been used up and the fragrances are gone, the bottles, especially those from bygone days are items that are treasured even more than the scents that they held many years ago. In fact, if you are lucky enough to own an antique perfume bottle, you could well be the owner of a minor treasure that will fetch a good price and which is much sought after by bottle collectors.

So, the next time you go overseas makes sure to check out the many antique shops that may have an antique perfume bottle for you to buy. However, that is easier said than done because many of these bottles have an asking price in thousands of dollars, and so before you buy one of these bottles, you should not spend on something that is not to your liking, and if you must collect these bottles, do so with those that are to your liking so that you can enjoy them for many more years to come.

You can even find antique perfume bottles in places other than antique shops, and good places to look for them include estate as well as yard sales, flea markets and also thrift stores as well as Internet auctions.

Proper Use Of Perfume

12 09 2007

Many people have had the experience of walking into a room where someone is wearing a strong smelling perfume and they have either gotten a headache and felt nauseous or have been drawn in by the pleasantness.  It is important for anyone who uses scents to understand the proper use of perfume and be able to apply it to their own application.

Perfume has been used over the centuries to inspire, delight, and arouse people’s sense of smell and thereby other desires of the human body.  People all over the world have certain scents that attract them or will turn them completely off. 

The Proper Scent

A very basic thing to understand about the use of perfume is that all scents are not good for all people.  Even the most expensive products will only smell their best on certain people.  A person needs to take time to explore what scents are best with their body chemistry and with the desired effect of the perfume.  If the scent is meant to be a pleasant smell for day to day use it will be completely different that a scent that is meant to seduce a lover. 

Perfume counters at department stores are great places to smell and sample different products before buying them.  A person should take the time to smell all types in the bottles and find scents that are pleasing to them.  Then the person will want to try each type one at a time over several days to see which perfume blends best with their body.  One thing that can help to make this process go faster is to learn to identify the category of each label.  Some scents are  some are woody, some are blended and so forth.  By determining what type of scent a person wants and defining what the different perfumes are a person can quickly eliminate many products.  A professional in the industry that works at a fine perfume shop can be very helpful in this venture.

border=0>

The Application

When a proper scent has been found, the person should understand how best to apply the product.  It is important that a perfume be subtle and not overpowering.  People who pass by should get a whiff of the pleasant smell and not be overcome by the odor.  Applying a dab of fragrance to the pulse points of the wrists or neckline has always been a popular use.  Others choose to spray the scent in the air and walk through so that they have a total body application.  For the woman who is intent on seduction a dab of an alluring scent in the bodice area is very effective.  Some scents work well when sprayed over the hair allowing them to be more true to the original scent and not mixed with the perspiration and musk of the individual. 

It is important that the wearer not mix the scent with other lotions, shampoos and powders that have their own odor.  These products should all be used in the unscented varieties or in the same scent as the perfume.  Caution always needs to be taken to make sure the scent achieved is simple and desirable.

Not All Perfume Bottles Are Created Equally

12 09 2007

Often manufacturers will produce a special limited edition perfume bottle. These bottles are so pretty that it is hard to throw them away when you have finished with the perfume inside. Rather than throw them away, carefully refill them and continue using them. You don’t even have to refill them with the scent they originally came with. You can find many older novelty perfume bottles from companies such as Avon and fill them with your favorite perfume. Scour garage sales, thrift stores, antique shops, and even online auction houses to find old but interesting perfume bottles.

There is something elegant about a vanity or dresser that is lined with perfume bottles. While many wonderful fragrances come in interesting and beautiful perfume bottles, you don’t have to leave your perfumes in the perfume bottles they came in. With a little creativity, the perfume bottles that line your dresser or vanity can be as unique as you are.

Reuse Your Favorite Perfume Bottles

If you browse around an antique store, you might come across a few gorgeous atomizers or old fashioned stopper perfume bottles. Simply wash them out and let them dry for a few days before you place your new perfume in these golden oldies. It is a lot of fun to mist yourself from an atomizer that reminds you of the type your great grandmother had sitting on her vanity. When you purchase an antique bottle or atomizer, always make sure that the stopper is tight so that you perfume won’t evaporate from the bottle.

Make New Perfume Bottles

A visit to a beauty supply shop or even a glass manufacturer can score you several different looking atomizers and bottles that can be used to store perfume. If you buy a rather plain bottle, you can decorate it to your own taste. You can decoupage thin triangles of colored tissue paper to the bottle to create a stained glass look. You can paint the bottle with stained glass paint or even fabric paint for a textured look. You can even glue beads or other decorations to a perfume bottle to make it truly unique.

If you are really creative and enjoy different kinds of crafts, consider taking a glass blowing class and making your own perfume bottle from scratch. Working under the supervision of master artists you can make something that is truly beautiful and unlike anything anyone else will have or have seen.

Where To Find Discount Women’s Perfume

10 09 2007

Good perfume is expensive, but with a little bit of time and effort, you can find discount women’s perfume that is as good as the stuff that goes for a hundred dollars per ounce. Just because you buy women’s perfume at a discount, doesn’t mean it isn’t any good.

Know When To Shop

Your local department store only has so much space at its perfume counter. If you shop at the right times during the year, you can find amazing discount women’s perfume. After holidays, such as Christmas, Mother’s Day, and Valentine’s Day, stores are left with perfume packaged in holiday boxes. Once the holiday is over, the packaging is no good. Many stores will deeply discount women’s perfume that is packaged for the holidays, after the holidays are over. If your store isn’t having an advertised sale, don’t be afraid to ask for a discount for purchasing holiday leftovers.

If you can stay on top of the newest trends from your favorite perfume manufacturer, you may also stumble upon some amazing women’s perfume discounts. If you know that your favorite perfume maker is about to introduce a new line or even a newly shaped bottle, you can score huge discounts on the old styles. Most stores are happy to sell the old line at a mark down to make room for the new products they are receiving.

Know What To Ask For

Many stores sell the test bottles when they get to be about half full. Often you can buy your favorite fragrances at a fraction of the cost of a new bottle. If you want to wear extremely expensive cologne but just can’t afford it, ask the cosmetics clerk to sell you the sample bottle. You might end up paying ten dollars for an ounce of perfume that costs one hundred dollars for a two ounce bottle.

Another great way to find discount women’s perfume is to buy gift baskets instead of just buying a bottle of your favorite scent. Often you will get other cosmetics such as soaps, lotions, powders, essential oils, or even several sizes of your favorite perfume in one basket for a fraction of what it would cost to buy the items all separately. Don’t worry if the gift basket contains items you won’t use. You can take those items and save money by giving them away as gifts. You can even take one gift basket and rewrap the contents to make gifts for two different friends or family members.

Finding discount women’s perfume is easy if you know where to look for the best deals.

Buying Discount Perfume

10 09 2007

A person with a limited budget does not have to feel that they can not buy quality perfumes.  There are many companies now that specialize in buying and selling discount perfumes that are the same products as the high dollar perfumes available at ritzy department stores.  Discount perfumes are a great way to have a fragrance that is popular without spending hundreds of dollars.  These companies are very easy to purchase from as many of them have internet stores where the items are readily available. 

A quick search on an internet search engine will help produce the discount perfume products a person is looking for.  A person can type in the specific perfume they are looking for and several internet stores will quickly appear that will offer the special scent at a discounted price.  For a person who would like to try out several different perfumes without investing a large amount of money this is a great opportunity.  A full spectrum collection of perfume can be had at a fraction of the cost. 

Internet Stores

There are any number of internet stores that will prove to have good discounted perfumes available.  A person will want to be cautious if the price appears to be too good to be true because there are stores that sell counterfeit perfumes rather than the real product at a discounted price.  These counterfeits may look just like the real thing but are not the same product and may contain ingredients that are harmful.  It is important for a buyer to make sure that the internet store they are buying from is a legitimate operation.  The old saying “if it seems to be too good to be true, it probably is” applies well to this marketplace.

Some large department stores will sell discounted perfumes in an internet store.  These large stores have begun to realize that the reduced overhead of an internet store versus the large store in the mall makes it easier to offer reduced prices and sale items.  The stores often offer free shipping for orders over a certain dollar amount making the deal even better.  Having a large company name behind the purchase will insure that the discount perfume is the legitimate product.  Of course, it is always nice to support the smaller businesses that will be found on the internet and the majority of these businesses will deal in genuine brands of discounted perfumes.   Whichever store a person chooses to buy from they will be happy with the ability to find name brand perfumes at a discounted price.
