“Your perfume is your message, your scented slogan to people”
The appeal of perfume is that it is at once ephemeral and empowering. It creates shimmering invisible armour that lingers in a room long after its wearer has gone and infuses our imagination with a subtle power.
As Jose Eisenberg, creator of luxury beauty and fragrance brand Eisenberg Paris tells us, “Scent is so closely connected to emotions. The olfactory bulb is part of the brain’s limbic system, otherwise known as the “emotional brain”, because it’s responsible for feelings and memories. It has very close access to the amygdala – another part of the brain – which processes emotions. It is therefore firstly a physical process”
When it comes to falling in love or setting the right mood, fragrance is the most important alluring accomplice to add to your arsenal
SETTING THE RIGHT NOTE IN ROMANCE
Want to set the right note of love for your loved ones, or would love to make a strong impression for your first date, choose from the following:
Oud
The note du jour, oud has taken the fragrance world by storm. Used for centuries in Middle Eastern scents. Now, almost every major perfume house is bringing it to the mainstream thanks to its intoxicating smell. One of the most expensive ingredients available – often costing more per ounce than gold.
Agar, a precious resin from the heart of the agarwood tree has a smoky, incense-like richness and a sensual aroma, making for one richly romantic note.
An animalistic and leathery scent, oud is a captivating note that seduces both men and women, and definitely attracts a particular type of outgoing personality.
TRU PERFUMES have brands like Gucci, Dunhill, Polo Ralph Lauren, Versace and Hugo Boss amongst many others in this list of fragrances. Click here to view them.
Oriental
Oriental scents incorporate intoxicating and intense ingredients to create warm and spicy smells.
From cinnamon and clove to nutmeg and musk, they’re deliciously enticing and often accompanied by exotic flowers or hints of caramel, dark chocolate and creamy coffee. But one particular ingredient that makes oriental so alluring is vanilla. Proven to be one of the most romantic smells in the world, it was used by Aztecs in the 1700s as a natural stimulant.
Oriental is the most enticing smell for men, making it the perfect fall-in-love fragrance.
Vanilla is key when it comes to romance. For serious love, oriental comes first in the list. The underlying note of vanilla gives an enveloping feeling, but there’s a message of temptation and promise. It enhances sensations of pleasure across the entire central nervous system and the tiniest hint of it can speak volumes.

Floral
“The earth laughs in flowers”
Flowers are the ultimate symbol of love and romance, but it’s not just because of their pretty petals - it’s also because of their scent. The most popular fragrance group, floral are fabulously feminine and can be soft and subtle, as fresh as newly cut flowers, or intense when mixed with fruits and spices.
Rose is the flower of love! And it is a fact. It is a real heart-opener. Such notes are crucial for me in a perfume because a fragrance has to speak to one’s imagination.
Reason enough to bring a floral bottle to your collection. Come visit us at TRU PERFUME. We have brands like YSL, Jimmy Choo, Burberry, Gucci, Guess, Paul Smith and many more.
