There’s a lot of debate over the subject of natural versus non-natural perfumes. The non-natural scents can be more consistent in quality and scent, easier to find, last longer when applied, and they cost a lot less because they are frequently made of synthetic ingredients. Unfortunately, the synthetic ingredients can be hard on an individual’s immune system.
Natural perfumes are made with natural ingredients like resins, absolutes, essential oils, and many times these are organic essential oils. These scents adapt to an individual’s chemistry. I can remember my first natural scent. It was a yellow rose essential oil fragrance that I bought before entering the 7th grade. It was a single note scent and very pretty.
I like both types of scents. I don’t like to limit myself, but a natural scent is very unique and when wearing one, you sure aren’t going to smell like everybody else. If you are a natural fragrance fan, you might take a look at Black Pearl Botanicals. They carry single and combination scent products
A good place to start with the Signature Perfume Oil Sample Set. The fragrance notes are carried in a jojoba oil are available in a sample size for $14.95

Throughout the years, I have gone from wearing only natural fragrances and makeup to the totally synthetic. I have to admit I feel best when I wear natural products. However, there are times when we need a little fake stuff. LOL.
I remember trying the Tom of Maine deodorant and I stunk for days. I breathed a sign of relief once I went back to Secret.
Cynthia, I recently received some natural fragrance to review for my other blog and some of the samples are so unpleasant. I don’t know if something happened to them, perhaps too much heat as they made their way to me in the mail, but they are just yuck.
I like a natural fragrance, but really I’m going to let my nose be the judge and if I like – whatever it’s made out of – then I’m going to wear it. I’m not predjudice.
