Set to Work Josephine Fairley explores try-before-your-big-buy mini fragrance collections istockphoto.com/Alena Sattarova It is one of the great surprises of the pandemic that fragrances continued to sell like hot cakes, despite the challenges of actually trying a fragrance on your skin, at that time. At first, stores were shuttered. Even when they did open up, fragrance tester bottles were kept under lock and key, so we couldn’t spray – and beyond that, even sales consultants were banned from using them on customers’ skin. (This was despite the fact that fragrance is, essentially, akin to a very expensive form of hand sanitiser, as I pointed out to a scent sales consultant when she proffered me a blotter rather than the longedfor zhoosh of a favourite perfume that I’d been looking forward to, on a rare foray to Selfridges. It was one of the few times during the whole pandemic when I actually broke down in tears!) One of the reasons that fragrance flourished is that brands savvily downsized their offering. And thus, no longer do you have to buy 50ml or 100ml sizes, to get your hands (or rather, wrists) on a new bottle of scent. Today, more and more fragrance houses are offering 10ml travel sizes – ostensibly for ease of toting around in our handbags (now we’ve dusted those off again), but which are also a wonderful introduction to a perfume. Perfume houses are also offering ‘discovery sets’, so that you can sniff your way through an entire collection of scents, and identify which you like. This is something that’s offered by The Perfume Society, too, which until earlier this year I used to run; they curate a selection of scents from different brands around a particular theme (including men’s boxes) – again, to try before you buy, at perfumesociety.org. Sample and travel sizes are a fantastic way to build your fragrance wardrobe, because they require such a tiny commitment financially. When you’ve lived with a fragrance on your skin (and clothes – don’t forget clothes!) for a while, you can really decide if it’s ‘you’, and THEN you can splurge confidently. So, I thought I’d start by sharing some particularly wonderful sets that have crossed my path recently… Sana Jardin Discovery Set, £30. Eight fabulous fragrances (2ml size), created by Carlos Benaïm, one of the world’s most revered perfumers, for the brand founded by sustainability champion Amy Christiansen, who empowers female flower harvesters via fair commerce. It’s a real magic carpet ride, this box of treats, in which my favourite is recently-launched Incense Water, inspired by the East Asian tradition of anointing guests with rose water, but with an exotic finale of sandalwood, patchouli and musk. (Sana Jardin are among the brands offering 10ml bottles, with a cute rollerball size available across the range.) Escentric Molecules Discovery Set, £25 for 10 x 2ml. This cult fragrance name was developed by an enfant terrible of the fragrance world, Geza Schoen, who bottles single, genderless molecules that happen to have astonishing complexity in his Molecule fragrances, and surrounds that same molecule with harmonising ingredients in the Escentric fragrances. In the metallic box, you’ll find Molecule 01 and Escentric 01, and so on, up to Molecule 01 and Escentric 05 (which I LOVE). Google ‘Escentric Molecules’, meanwhile, and you’ll find countless people maintaining that Molecule 01 works like a pheromone and will have strangers following you down the street, and I reckon this discovery set might be just the chance you need to put that to the test! Eight & Bob Discovery Set, £20 for 5 x 2ml. These elegant, Cologne-style fragrances are eminently shareable 105 priceless-magazines.com
