Sali Hughes on beauty: if you don't like strong scents, layering could be the answer
"Sometimes wearing more potent fragrances is impossible for those prone to allergies or migraines, but mostly it's an instinctive aversion to being held captive all day by scent too pervasive for one's liking. And in these instances, I invariably suggest the layering of two more subtly scented products with compatible aromas, to add depth and interest without the same strength as a power perfume."
"Rare Beauty have run with this concept for its new Layering Balms, 18. There are four ungreasy balms to choose from: Woody Oak (my favourite), Amber Vanilla, Floral Peony Blossom and Bergamot, each created to stroke on to pulse points. They form a fragrant foundation on which to spray another scent specifically, Rare's own signature (71), but I've experimented with others and they are versatile."
Many people avoid potent fragrances because of allergies, migraines, or an instinctive aversion to pervasive scent. Layering two subtly scented, compatible products adds depth and interest without the strength of a power perfume. Rare Beauty's Layering Balms (18) arrive in four ungreasy options — Woody Oak, Amber Vanilla, Floral Peony Blossom and Bergamot — designed for pulse points and to act as a fragrant foundation for a spray, extending longevity while remaining gentle. Body mists perform a similar role; Salt & Stone's Santal & Vetiver Body Mist (45) pairs with matching deodorant or lotion to provide a warm, gender-neutral scent without heavy perfume.
