How to Pick the Perfect Fragrance for Your Thanksgiving Gathering

Thanksgiving is not all about the food on the table but rather all about the atmosphere, memories and the warmth you bring to all who surround you. And fragrance to you is part thereof. The right perfume will help you feel presentable, hustling and friendly as well as leave a soft smell trail in the memories of people even after the night is over.

However, the tricky part is that Thanksgiving is a day of close contact, lots of food, and lots of people. You do not want a perfume that is unnecessarily harsh or harshly scented, but you also do not want one that will fade away after an hour.

How do you hit that golden mean then? We can take a tour of it-- and as we go, we can see some of the beautiful Thanksgiving-ready fragrances that Fragrance Rack Shop has to offer that can be fitted to various personalities and different occupations at the party.

What Makes a Good Thanksgiving Fragrance?

We should know the type of smell that would be best in a Thanksgiving atmosphere before we leap into the particular perfumes. You are probably sitting in a home, eating with family and talking. So, consider:

• Soft over loud - You do not want to overpower the smell of the food (or your relatives).

• Warm over sharp - Warm, cozy scents are more welcoming than bright, or synthetic scents.

• Comforting instead of edgy - It is a family event, and therefore, cozy, friendly scents are best.
  

Good note families to use during Thanksgiving are:

• Vanilla, amber, tonka - Comforting, warm, and sweet.

• Soft florals - Light, feminine and not that harsh.

• Woods and musk - Men love, adds depth, but is not overly masculine.
  

And now, it is time to consider some specific perfumes that would best fit these vibes.

Find Your Fragrance at Your Position in the Gathering

Not all people contribute equally during Thanksgiving. Your perfume can be as good as what you are up to that day:

The Host or Cook:

Go for something soft and fresh like Michael Kors Island Eau de Parfum or 3 AM by Sean John Eau de Toilette, so it doesn't clash with food aromas.

The Guest Who Loves Dressing up:

Try Valentino Rock 'n Rose Eau de Parfum Spray for Women or Versace Man Eau de Toilette for a more polished, elegant presence.

The Warm, Family-Focused One:

Choose a cozy, sentimental scent like Nusuk Safa Eau de Parfum for Women or Wafa Eau de Parfum Spray for Men.

And your smell will be remembered by people as a part of the day, so it is possible to make the experience even unforgettable by picking something cozy, warm, and welcoming.

Do not forget Time and Practice

Even the finest perfume may seem like excessive use when applied too much, especially on a busy house day, with guests and food. Here are a few simple tips:

• Put on your fragrance 30 minutes before the arrival of the guests or when you are going out.

• Pay attention to pulse points: behind the ears, neck, wrists.

• In case your perfume is heavy or enduring, then 2-3 sprays suffice.

• Do not spray clothes that are close to food.
  

If you're planning to shop for fragrances for Thanksgiving or the holiday season in general, it's also worth watching the sale section at Fragrance Rack Shop for seasonal offers.
