Choosing a perfume can sometimes be a trickier task than we’d like - especially when it’s intended as a gift. But it can also be a favourite pastime. How about you?
Do you already have a go-to signature scent, or are you always looking to try something new? And do you know how to choose the perfect women’s or men’s perfume as a gift? If you love perfumes as much as perfumes love ESSENS, try picking one today based on the fire zodiac signs and enjoy the selection process
Aries (21.3. – 19.4.)
Leo (23.7. – 22.8.)
Sagittarius (23.11. – 21.12.)
What power have scents held for centuries? Do you know why fragrances were so significant for ancient rituals and ceremonies?
Connecting scents with mysticism goes back to the dawn of human history. Interestingly, the word perfume comes from the Latin "per fumum", which means – through smoke. Originally, fragrances were extracted precisely by burning various herbs, resins, or wood... And through the smoke rising to the heavens, people felt it was easier to connect with a higher, otherworldly power.
Aromatic essences have always held a special place in society, often reserved as a privilege of monarchs and powerful figures. It likely comes as no surprise that the first perfume reportedly originated in Egypt
Simply put: mystery, magic, and mysticism have been part of the fragrance world since time immemorial. Or perhaps they still are?
Even today, our favourite perfumes act like tiny spells. Applying and wearing a perfume isn’t just a routine or another cosmetic accessory; it’s a ritual that affects you whether you realise it or not.
The moment you decide to wear a fragrance, the magic begins:
For Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius who project natural charm and a desire for well-deserved admiration, perfume is a royal crown they proudly wear. It is a tool that enhances their temperament and helps them leave a lasting impression.
