3. INTRODUCTION
• Are you someone
who applies
fragrance before
you walk out the
door? Perhaps you
have a signature
scent or you like to
experiment with
different perfumes
and body sprays.

4. consider others
• Perfume is delightful when used in
moderation. However, most of us have
experienced being knocked out by someone
who got carried away with fragrance and
didn't know when to stop. Not only does it
overpower your senses, it can make some
people sick.

5. Consider the Occasion
• If you enjoy wearing your favorite scent, most
of the time, that's fine. However, before you
spray it on, remember that fragrance isn't
appropriate in all situations. And even when
the occasion calls for it, you need to know
how much is too much.

17. ELIE SAAB LE PARFUM
A lovely light and refreshing
fragrance that's not too heavy for
day, Elie Saab's perfume is, according
to the company, "a harmony of white
flowers, cedar woods and a drop of
honey," all of which, "creates an
encounter as feminine as the trail of
an evening gown. An addictive,
refined fragrance with a
Mediterranean spirit. The
exceptional in the everyday."

18. CHANEL EAU VIVE
• This fragrance has all
the sophistication of
Chanel, but in a light,
bright, airy fun way,
making it perfect for
the office. It's not
overpowering and lasts
all day. It's mostly
a floral scent with
invigorating grapefruit,
blood orange, jasmine,
cedar and iris notes.

19. DONNA KARAN
• As a busy business
magnate herself, Donna
Karan is expert at creating
fragrances that are
wearable for work.
Cashmere Mist is one of
her best, a powdery
chypre-floral scent blend
built on jasmine,
sandalwood and vanilla
notes, that's feminine but
light enough for office-
wear.

20. DIOR POISON GIRL
• This fresh and
cheerful fragrance is
a friendly choice for
the office. Top notes
of reed stems and
wild mint mingle
with freshwater
florals and peach,
creating a scent
that’s light, feminine
and clean.

21. MARC JACOBS
• Marc Jacobs brings his
signature cool chic to
this fragrance, which
beautifully captures the
essence of autumn. A
mature concoction of
amber, tonka bean and
cashmere wood, with
cinnamon and bark in
the middle notes. Wear
this one if you're the
boss - or want to be.
