Choose your 5 favourite notes. You get one letter (A, B, C or D) when you have one note from a certain category, two when you have two etc. For example: you have two notes from category A, one from B, 0 from C and two from D, then you add two A's, one B and two D's to your score.

Mostly A: Floral
With notes like rose, orchid and lilies in your perfume you feel confident. Floral notes will embrace your sensuality. Floral perfumes are usually sold in soft pink or lilac colours.

Good floral perfumes: Le Parfum by Elie Saab, Miracle by Lancôme, Armani Code for Women by Giorgio Armani, L'air du Temps by Nina Ricci and Eternity Moment by Calvin Klein.

Mostly B: Oriental
You need a perfume that expresses sexuality and mystery: Oriental notes make you feel like this. Fragrances in colours like orange, brown and red are the kind of perfumes you need to search for.

Good Oriental perfumes: Must de Cartier by Cartier, Shalimar by Guerlain, Samsara by Guerlain, Coco by Chanel and Opium by Yves Saint Laurent.

Mostly C: Woody
If you imagine the woods you think of nature and a little bit of mystery. Those words describe you and that's the main reason you should go for woody perfumes. Go for perfumes that are coloured light brown or green.

Good woody perfumes: Vol de Nuit by Guerlain, Vetiver pour Elle by Guerlain, Versense by Versace, Midnight Poison by Christian Dior and Eau d'Iparie by L'Occitane de Provence.

Mostly D: Fresh
Citrusy, aromatic and chypre are subcategories in the category of fresh fragrances. Fresh perfumes are genuine and happy and that suits you very well.

Good fresh perfumes: Aqua Allegoria Pamplelune by Guerlain, Eau de Cologne Imperiale by Guerlain, O de Lancôme by Lancôme, Absynthe Avond by Christian Dior and Dioressence by Christian Dior.
