Perfume and Hair
Experts have noticed that hair color has a direct impact on how certain perfume “smell.” To put it another way, the same perfume does not smell like a blonde than a brunette. Of course, always talking about the natural color and not dyes. Although it may seem strange, indeed those who love perfumes and are dedicated to designing, developing and marketing, consider that perfume is almost a living thing that changes with the circumstances under which it receives. Put another way, is not the same smell the perfume from a bottle, which applied to the skin, or clothing. Similarly, the perfume will not smell like freshly placed, that after several hours. The cause of these phenomena is the direct interaction that has the perfume with skin and thus hair.
The skin of blondes women tend to have less melanin, which is the natural pigment, visible on the moon for example. In addition, the white skin is usually drier, and produces less fat. This directly affects the chemistry of perfume, as most of the essential oils used in their formulation is soluble, meaning they dissolve in fat. Therefore fatter when your skin is naturally closer the essential oils that make up the perfume smell reach its peak and will last longer.
It is possible to make some recommendations to find ideal perfume according to skin type and hair color you use. The oil-based perfumes such as musk or perfume timber, oriental, are often more suitable for people with dark skin. Redheads and usually have a high amount of melanin, but also tend to have very sensitive skin, so fruit and citrus fragrances are most suitable.
Blonde texture people are usually the most problematic to find the right perfume, because their skin tends to lack of oil, making perfume will evaporate easily. In this case, floral perfumes, and its maximum duration, usually indicated.
The interaction of perfumes with natural oils is a sensitive issue, and experts advise never apply perfume directly on the hair because the scalp oil is much heavier than the rest of the skin, and can therefore make the perfume smell much stronger. Besides the perfume, its content of ethyl alcohol can cause the hair to become dry and lose its natural shine.
