How to choose your perfect perfume fragrance: experts share an ingenious life hack

To find our ideal scent that we can wear every day, we should first choose it.

We all often see jars of coffee beans on the shelves next to perfume testers. Usually, we hope that the smell of coffee will remove all the other aromas we felt when choosing a perfume.

This is what radiotrek writes about.

However, perfume experts say that this does not really help. On the contrary, it can confuse us.

Coffee does not restore the olfactory receptors, but only overloads them and further mixes the smells, impairing our ability to smell aromas.

Therefore, given that coffee also has a powerful aroma, we already inhale it through our "tired" nose. As a result, this approach leads to headaches.

But if coffee doesn't help to "clear" your nose, then how do you choose a scent that's right for you?

According to experts, there is a way that works most effectively:
