What is the best perfume for women?

It depends on when you will wear it. Gourmand and amber fragrances suit evenings and cold weather; fruity-florals and fresh citrus suit daytime and summer. A floral over a vanilla-musk base is the most versatile single bottle.

Which women's perfume gets the most compliments?

Sweet gourmands — vanilla, caramel and praline compositions — draw the most comments, because they are warm, familiar and project well. In this collection that means the Lattafa and Kayali gourmands in particular.

How long does women's perfume last?

Eau de parfum typically lasts 6–8 hours on skin. Moisturised skin holds fragrance longer than dry skin, and a spray on clothing or hair will outlast one on the wrist.

What perfume should I wear to the office?

Something that stays close to the skin — a fresh citrus, a light floral or a soft musk. Save heavy oud and gourmand fragrances for after hours, where projection is an asset rather than a problem.
