Perfume can be a great way for you to make a statement about your personality to the world. There are thousands of perfumes for women online and in stores, and finding a perfume as unique as yourself is easy and affordable.

What would you like your perfume to say about you? There are several different categories of fragrances, and your personality can help you identify which category might appeal to you most.

If your personality is playful and flirty you might consider a perfume in the fruity category. Fruity perfumes are infused with the luscious, juicy notes of fruits such as melon, berry or peach. These scents invoke images of sunshine and summer gardens.

If you think of yourself as more of a serious, quiet type, you might want to try a fragrance in the woody category. Woody perfumes have an earthy, seductive scent. They are often characterized by notes of cedar, sandalwood and musk. These fragrances can give an impression of subtle, mysterious allure.

Fragrances in the floral category are for the romantic at heart. Perfumes in this category use the notes of one or many flowers to create a sweetly feminine scent. If you love a particular flower, such as gardenia, rose or freesia, this is the category for you.

Every fragrance smells just a little different on every woman, so trying on perfumes the way you would try on an outfit is the best way to find the one that suits you perfectly. Department stores are a great place to find hundreds of perfumes in tester bottles for you to sample. The beauty retailer Sephora offers testers in stores and often includes samples of the latest perfumes free with online purchases.

One way to get a great deal on perfumes for women is to buy the perfume as part of a fragrance set. Many fragrance brands offer their signature scents in gift sets that include other products such as lotion, body oil, or miniature roll-on bottles at a great value.

The right perfume is like the perfect accessory. It goes with everything and fits your personality like a glove.
