Layering Guide
Layering - this is how you can create your own, unique scent
Welcome to our guide on layering, a creative way to combine two or more perfumes to create a unique scent that is fully your own.
What is layering?
To layer perfumes means to apply the scents in layers, which gives you the possibility to experiment and find new, lovely fragrance combinations. The scent also becomes very personal. It is a method that has its roots on old perfume traditions, but has gained more and more popularity in modern times.
How do you do it?
Choose your fragrances: Start by selecting which perfumes you want to combine. Remember that there are no set rules - it's all about yor own sense of smell and preferences. We usually recommend around two to three fragrances for the best results. Se our tips further down...
Apply in layers: Start by spraying one perfume, let it set for a couple of seconds, then apply the next one. You can keep alternating between the scents, depending on how many layers you want or which scent you want to be the most prominent.
Experiment: Try different combinations to find what suits you best. We usually recommend to start with the heavier and deeper of the fragrances that you have selected, but have a go and see what you like best! Some love the combination of vanilla and citrus, while some might prefer a mix of floral and woody scents.
BODY LOTION
Our beautifully scented body lotions are perfect for building up your fragrance and making it last longer. Apply the lotion before spraying your perfume for a more intense and long-lasting effect. You can pair it with the matching perfume, or mix and match with other scents to create your own unique fragrance combination! 🧴

This scent combination is pure magic for the colder seasons! The spiciness from High on Chai blends with extra caramel-like sweetness from Carashmellow, creating the aroma of freshly baked treats. It is the perfect way to “autumnify” your Carashmellow, which we know is a favorite for many 🤤🤭

For Cinnamon Roll Day in Sweden last year we tried to create a cinnamon roll layering, and this combo came the closest!
