Have you even thought about it yet? What fragrance will you wear on your wedding day?
It may seem like a silly question, but scents bring back memories. Think back.
For me, I smell Clinique Happy and think of Junior High school. When I smell Adidas perfume or Cherry Blossom from Bath and Body Works, I think of High School. Everyone knows what perfumes/colognes their parents wear and when we smell those scents, we are reminded of them.
But! When I smell Lovely By Sarah Jessica Parker, I'm taken back to my wedding day. I remember already having my hair done and putting the final touches on my makeup, after just slipping into my dress. Then, I sprayed on the perfume that reminded my of my wedding day. The scent to me, smells elegant, romantic, and just a touch of floral. Now, I only wear it for special occasions (partially because it was discontinued.. sad to say.) to bring back memories of the best day of my life.

I think it's something every bride should incorporate into their wedding. Pick a fragrance you think defines your wedding. Is your wedding- classic and romantic? Meaningful and intimate? A celebration? Outdoors or destination?
I would say florals are the most popular for weddings. One of my favorites is Vera Wang. Something amazing about this perfume is that the designer spent time thinking about the packaging of this perfume, the bottle is supposed to be shaped like an A-line wedding dress to remind the bride of her elegance. Love that.
A woodsy/oriental fragrance that is also one of my personal favorites is Euphoria by Calvin Klein. This perfume has undertones of Black orchid, Lotus Blossom, and Amber. This fragrance lasts all night!
A vanilla scent would be Dolce and Gabbana The One. This fragrance has vanilla, amber, and musk undertones mixed with mandarin and peach. This is perfect for the meaningful/intimate wedding. This scent has a warmth to it.
A fruity scent would be Viva La Juicy from Juicy Couture. This is a fun, carefree fragrance that anyone would love! It has undertones of mandarins, wild berries, jasmine, and honeysuckle.
Whatever fragrance you decide, make sure you keep it special. Keep it for anniversaries, date nights, and birthdays. It will be more meaningful that way. ~
I never would of thought of this. This is to know :)
