Perfume sets feel like a peek into your own story – each fragrance capturing a different side of you. At WHO IS ELIJAH, your go-to for luscious Australian fragrances, we believe that choosing a scent is personal, and whether it’s a splash of brightness or something deeper and more complex, finding that perfect match is simpler than you think. 

Here’s how to choose long-lasting perfumes and signature scents that flow with who you are, creating a repertoire of fragrance go-tos that feels effortlessly yours.

Step #1: Identify your personal scent style.

When choosing perfume sets, it’s best to reflect on what scents match your preferences. 

One way to go about it is by asking yourself what you want others to sense when you step into a room. Are you looking to make a bold entrance with a trace of smoky oud and spiced heat catching in the air? Or you may want to exude something softer and effortless – clean musk, a whisper of airy florals, lingering like a second skin. Perhaps something more balanced yet rich, like the notes of earthy fragrances, is what you’ve been craving.

No matter what your style is, deciding the impression you want to make is a good way to narrow down what notes will best fit you.

Step #2: Identify the fragrance families or notes you enjoy.

Once you’ve figured out your personal scent style, identify the fragrance families or notes that align with it. Do warm vanilla or sandalwood scents make you feel comforted? Does the thought of a floral fragrance set lift your mood? Or maybe you crave something similar to the dimension of floral and fruity perfume sets for summer?

Use your past experiences as a guide. Recall fragrances, whether it’s a fruity bottle of perfume or a woody cologne set you’ve loved in the past. You can also look beyond fragrances – think about candles, beauty products and even places with scents you enjoy and note the common threads.

Step #3: Prioritise versatility in your collection.

When you’re online perfume shopping, consider when and how you’ll be using these fragrances. For versatility, choose a unisex fragrance set with a variety that’ll give you multiple options. This way, you get a set that matches various occasions or times of the day. 

Keep the size of the bottles in mind as well. Many perfume sets come in a travel-size perfume set format, which is perfect if you’re on the go and love to switch scents throughout the day. However, if you already know what scents you love and like sticking to a few key favourites, you can opt for sets with bigger – but still easily portable – bottles.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What should I consider when choosing a perfume set?

Think about the mood you want to capture, may it be a breezy, sunlit aura for daytime or a warmer, magnetic presence after dark. Choose the scents that speak to you and mirror the energy you want to project. 

If you’re just discovering your Australian perfume preferences, start with smaller atomisers and a variety of scents, like our DISCOVERY SET. Already know which notes you love or want to try? Go for a 3- or 5-bottle set that fits your style.

How do I layer fragrances for a unique scent?

Layering is about personal expression, so there are no rigid rules, but here are some tips that can help you achieve the unique scent you’re going for:

• Always start with clean skin. The best time to layer fragrances is after showering or freshening up. This ensures that external factors like sweat and dirt don’t interfere with the notes of the scents you’re blending.
• Apply the strongest fragrance first, followed by the lighter one. This way, the bolder scent doesn’t completely overpower the more delicate notes of the more subtle fragrance. 
• Test the blend on a small area, such as your wrist. This way, you don’t have to spend too much time washing off the scent if you’re not a fan of the combo you’re experimenting with.. 

What are the differences between floral, woody, and citrus perfumes?

Floral perfumes are sweet and powdery, featuring scents of blossoms like rose, jasmine, lily, or peony to exude a classic, romantic essence. WHO IS ELIJAH’s REBEL ROSE, CHERRY FIESTA, and ELECTRIC SOUL give you a taste of this style.

Meanwhile, woody perfumes are richer and earthier, drawing their depth from scents of cedarwood, sandalwood, vetiver, patchouli, or amber. Think NOMAD, MORNING AFTER, NIGHTCAP, or WALL STREET – each captures a grounded, sophisticated energy that can be smoky or velvety.

Finally, citrus perfumes burst with a refreshing and fruity fragrance, usually featuring notes of lemon, bergamot, orange, or grapefruit. Our HER and OCEAN EYES perfumes, for instance, have that crisp, uplifting quality.
