Whether you’re a sucker for the fervour of a floral scent, the comforting creaminess of vanilla or the feistiness of your favourite fruit fragrance, there’s no denying the hit of confidence that scented products can give you. And while you might be a dab hand at spritzing your signature scent here and there, the key to long-lasting allure lies in the layering of fragranced products. Curious to know more? We thought you might be! Join us as we share the lowdown on this handy fragrance hack, as well as some scented products we know you’ll love.
What is fragrance layering?
Fragrance layering is pretty much what it says on the tin – layering fragranced products within the same scent family, for example, fragranced soap, scented moisturisers, and deodorants, before applying a final spritz of fragrance. This technique helps to gradually build the intensity of a scent, promoting a longer-lasting result that’s bound to fetch you compliment after compliment.
Layering fruit fragranced products
Whether you love the zing of lemon and lime, the sumptuous sweetness of strawberry or the comforting warmth of pear, wearing your favourite fruit in fragrance form is the ultimate feel-good hack. So, what better way to add a bit of pep in your step than by starting your day with a fruit-filled morning shower?
Original Source Almond&Cherry Shower Milk 250ML
£1.00
Cleansing your body with a fruit-fragranced body wash will gently scent the skin, creating the perfect base for the rest of your fragranced products to sit on top of. Post-shower, you’ll want to apply your favourite fruity deodorant, slather on some matching scented moisturiser, and finish with a spritz or two of perfume. Trust us, there will be no need for touch-ups throughout the day.
It’s clear that floral-scented products and fragrances have no shortage of fans; after all, what’s not to like about the romantic allure of rose, the understated poise of peony or the gentle warmth of jasmine? While some might like to start their day enveloped in their favourite floral scent, many prefer to end theirs with relaxing floral scents when it’s time to wind down.
Dove For Women Floral Antiperspirant 200ml
£2.49
So...? Floral Crush Body Mist 100ml
£2.00
Like any fragrance layering routine, the first step is to cleanse the skin. For an extra touch of luxury, opt for a rose-fragranced soap to start proceedings, and lock the scent into place with a nourishing body oil with similar notes. To take the feel-good factor to the next level, gently spritz some floral body mist – this way, you can sink into a blissful night’s sleep and wake up smelling as fresh as a daisy!
Lux Soap French Rose & Almond Oil 3x80g
£1.49
Yardley Bodyspray Lily 75ml
£1.09
Layering vanilla-scented products
From subtle sweetness to velvety creaminess, vanilla is one of the most versatile scented ingredients, making it a staple in bodycare, skincare and haircare products. It’s therefore no wonder that when a pamper evening is in order, many call on the calming and comforting powers of this wonder ingredient.
Aveeno® Yoghurt Body Cream, Vanilla & Oat Scent 200ml
£3.99
Dove Bath Shea Butter 720ml
£3.49
So, when your body is craving a bit of TLC, your best bet is to slip into a vanilla-infused bubble bath. Soaking in a creamy vanilla bath soak and lathering up with a scented body wash will subtly coat the skin in a vanilla aroma. Post bubble bath, you can enhance the scent with a scented moisturiser and body spray combo, before finishing with a vanilla-scented lip balm for sweet-smelling, sumptuously soft lips come morning time.
So...? Kiss Me Body Spray 150ML
£1.89
Carmex Vanilla Lip Balm 4.25g
