The Secret of Fragrance Layering – Multidimensional Fragrances with VALJUES
introduction
In the world of perfumery, there are countless ways to customize a fragrance. One of the most fascinating methods is layering , where several fragrances are combined to create a unique, multi-dimensional fragrance composition. VALJUES, known for its vegan and gender-neutral fragrances, offers a perfect basis for experimenting with layering and emphasizing your own style with individually created fragrance notes.
In this article we will show you how layering works and how you can optimally combine VALJUES fragrances to create your very own personal fragrance profile.
What is scent layering?
Fragrance layering is all about combining two or more different perfumes together to create a unique fragrance composition that is perfectly suited to your personality and mood. Similar to fashion, where different layers of clothing are worn on top of each other, layering allows you to build up different scent notes. This technique allows you to add more depth, complexity, or even a surprising twist to your favorite perfume.
Layering works particularly well with fragrances that have a clear structure and harmonize easily with each other. VALJUES offers an excellent basis for layering with its minimalist and modern fragrance palette, as the perfumes are designed to work both alone and in combination with each other.
Basics of Fragrance Layering
To layer fragrances successfully, there are a few simple rules you should follow:
-
Start with light scents: Start with a soft, subtle scent as a base. This could be a soft, minimalist scent like "12 | TWELVE" by VALJUES, which combines aquatic and floral notes with hints of lily and magnolia. Such light scents form a perfect foundation on which you can build more intense aromas.
-
Work your way up to heavier scents: After you've applied the base, you can slowly work your way up to heavier, more intense scents. A scent like "6 | Six," which combines aphrodisiac vanilla with smoky oud and amber, adds depth and complexity, giving your creation a sensual touch.
-
Balance similar notes: Choose fragrances that share similar scent families or notes to create a harmonious result. If both perfumes contain a common component, such as vanilla or woody notes, this can help them complement each other rather than overpowering each other. For example, the smooth, creamy character of "9 | Nine" pairs perfectly with the vanilla-based accords of "Whipped & Creamy."
-
Experiment with contrasts: While similar notes certainly harmonize, playing with opposites can also create exciting and surprising effects. For example, combine a warm, balsamic scent like "21 | Twenty-One" with a fresh, aquatic scent like "8am" to create a dynamic composition that exudes both freshness and warmth.
VALJUES: The perfect base for layering
VALJUES perfumes are ideal for layering as they are deliberately minimalist and modern. Each fragrance is designed to enhance the wearer's personality and blend perfectly into their lifestyle. Here are some layering ideas you can try with VALJUES fragrances:
- 8am + 12 | Twelve: Start your day with the fresh lightness of "8am" and give your fragrance a relaxing, sensual note with "12 | Twelve". Perfect for a mindful start to the day.
- 9 | Nine + 6 | Six: Combine the floral-sensual aura of "9 | Nine" with the depth and intensity of "6 | Six" for an exciting fragrance experience that shows both romantic and rebellious facets.
- 21 | Twenty-One + 19 | Nineteen: Combine the woody, warm character of "21 | Twenty-One" with the summery freshness of "19 | Nineteen" and create a distinctive blend of warmth and liveliness that is reminiscent of unforgettable summer evenings.
Tips for perfect layering
- Adapt to the moment: Make sure your layering combination fits the occasion or mood. A light, fresh fragrance mix is great for everyday wear, while heavier, sensual compositions are ideal for the evening.
- Less is more: When layering, you should start with a few sprays to see how the scents develop on your skin. Too many layers can quickly become overwhelming.
- Test and adjust: Not every scent combination will work perfectly right away. Take the time to try different combinations and discover which scents feel best to you.
