Pick up your favorite perfume from your bathroom or dresser (or wherever else you keep it). Nothing beats putting on perfume first thing in the morning. *Spritz spritz. * Uh-oh. The container shows that the two spritzes you got are the last in the bottle. It’s time to buy a new one.
We know that shopping for perfume in a department shop can be tedious. Instead, try ordering one online. We don’t know of anything more exciting than ordering your favorite scents from the comfort and privacy of your bed.
If you have never bought perfume online, you might wonder how to do it. You might have a thing about sweet fragrances, and you want to avoid a musky scent. You’re in good hands. We’re going to share three tips with you today on how to choose a perfume when shopping online.
Learn the Fragrance Vocabulary
You need to be familiar with the “slang” of perfumes in order to truly understand the fragrance you are looking at. What does oak moss actually smell like? We’re asking.
It’s important to know the words for different scents, despite all jokes. There are many different types of scent notes. Earthy. Smoky. Fruity. Floral. Spicy. You can easily shop for perfumes on the internet once you know what they mean.

Find out what types of scents you like
Online perfume shopping is made easier when you know your preferred fragrance. When you know exactly what you are looking for, you don’t have to guess.
Say you like sweet scents. (I mean who doesn’t?) You won’t find fragrances online that simply say “sweet” – although this would be easier. Instead, you need to search for fragrances with sweet notes. Perfume-lovers who are more experienced will know you can’t simply say that a fragrance is sweet, because it has so many nuanced notes. Is it florally-sweet or fruity-sweet? Is it a deep or light fragrance? These details give scents a lot of personality. Check out your favorite perfumes to see what type of fragrances you like.

Samples are available before you commit.
We think that commitment is difficult, and it’s especially hard when you buy things online like perfumes. Even if you know your perfume vocabulary, you can still end up buying a scent you hate. It’s not pleasant to wait for a package and then hate it when you receive it.
It is important to test samples of perfume before purchasing a full bottle. Snif, for example, incorporates this in the ordering process. You can test out a Snif fragrance at home to see if it suits you. You can get samples for free. You’ll get a package containing a 2ml sample of the perfume and a full size bottle when you order a 7-day free trial. You can try the fragrance using the sample and give it a spritz. You can do nothing if you love it. We know you will. Your card will be charged once your seven-day free trial has ended and you haven’t asked for a refund. It’s that simple.
If you don’t like the sample, you can send it back for free and get a full-sized version. You’ll pay nothing. With a free trial, you can have the best experience when shopping for perfume online.
Here are three tips to help you choose a perfume when shopping online. We know that with a company such as Snif you will find the right scent for you and can sleep well at night knowing you can try the perfume out before you commit. Online perfume shopping is the perfect alternative to big-box stores where you can get dizzy from trying so many fragrances.
