What Effect does the Warm and Cold Skin Temperature has on Perfume Smell?
Everybody has a unique skin properties and skin odour. Having applied on the skin, the scent of the perfume is subject to heating and thus the composition created by a perfumer mixes with the natural body odour. Thus, the final result depends not only on the efforts of the perfumer, but also on the

distinct properties of each person’s skin.
One of the most important
factors is the temperature of your skin. The normal human body temperature is
about 36.6°C, but the temperature of the surface of the skin may be completely
different. Thus, the perfume will smell different if applied on warm skin and
cold skin.
What Effect does the Warm Skin Temperature has on Perfume Smell?
Warm skin is usually denser
and/or darker. Such skin is prone to redness and inflammation. It burns easily
in the sun. People with warm skin frequently have increased blood pressure and
their hands are usually warm. Applied on such skin, the fragrances quickly warm
up and evaporate. Most often, people with such skin type have difficulty in
smelling head (top) notes (i.e. citrus scents) because they quickly disappear
from the surface of such skin. These people should draw their attention to the base
notes because they will last the longest and it will be the perfume which they
will smell best. If you have a warm skin and you do not like the base notes, do
not buy such perfume because you will keep on smelling them.

wood, sandalwood, coffee, caramel and chocolate will perfectly suit on warm
skin. However, if the scent of the perfume contains musk and aldehyde
compositions, you should study it more carefully and only than acquire it.

are usually the signs of cold skin. If your hands are often cold, they are not
prone to redness and inflammations, and you usually do not get sunburned
easily, then your skin is likely to fall into this category. Longer fragrance
disclosure and long lasting on the skin are characteristic to this type of
skin. The top notes smell for more than 10–15 minutes and sometimes even up to
an hour. If you have a cold skin and you do not like the fragrance from the
first smell – do not buy it because you will smell unpleasant scents for a long
time.
The aromas containing fruit,
berry, citrus fruit, grass and water notes will perfectly smell on cold skin.
While sharp, powdery, as well as resin and patchouli scents can smell
unpredictably on cold skin.
