Choosing a perfume is a matter of taste and style, and in many cases it is true. But there are other circumstances in which perfume plays an important role, on a par with the dress, the location, the entertainment and the furnishings. We are referring to the perfume to wear on the wedding day.

The bride and groom are the protagonists of the wedding party, but along with them, all the accessories that they choose to show off on one of the most important and exciting days of their lives also become protagonists. Just as much care is dedicated to choosing the dress, the hairstyle, the make-up, every bride must choose the most suitable perfume to wear on her wedding.

But how to do it? If you already follow our advice for choosing a perfume without going to the perfumery, you will also be able to find the perfect Arabian perfume for an unforgettable wedding. Even from an olfactory point of view!

The importance of perfume for the bride

By now our readers know well that perfume is not a detail, but is a fundamental element that women and men use to express their personality, their emotions, the very essence of the person. And it is precisely the persistence of the Arabian perfume that has the ability to bring to mind memories, people, sensations, so it would be a serious mistake not to use the power of perfume during an event as full of emotions and affections as the wedding day.

Some brides choose to wear their usual perfume for important occasions even for the wedding, perhaps the one they had on the day the couple met or had their first kiss.

Other women, however, prefer to distinguish each moment of their love story with different olfactory experiences, and for this reason they go in search of an Arabian perfume that can best tell the magic of that celebration.

Each of us has an olfactory memory that links us to the most beautiful moments (and also the saddest ones) of our lives, and to celebrate the authenticity of the love that is sealed with the yes, I do, we cannot help but choose the perfect bridal perfume.

Choosing a bridal perfume: some advice

From our experience in the field of Arabic fragrances and niche perfumery, we want to give some advice to brides who want to choose a perfume to wear on their wedding day. The first is: respect your style.

Not distorting your tastes is always the best choice. It could be a real gamble, in fact, to completely change the olfactory notes that have always stimulated and exalted your personality, especially on such an important day, in which the bride and groom are totally at the center of attention.

The fragrance you wear greatly affects your mood, your feeling of well-being, and your personality. And no bride would like to feel uncomfortable at her wedding. It would be a real nightmare.

Women who usually buy fragrances from the fruity olfactory family, such as the creations of Lattafa or Swiss Arabian, and therefore love citrus notes, would do well to avoid daring on their wedding day by choosing a perfume from the oriental olfactory family, for example, despite its ability to evoke enveloping and sensual sensations, as happens with the Lattafa Pride Al Qiam Gold perfume.

There is always time to explore new fragrances, so it is better not to do it on a day whose memory will be imprinted in your memory forever. In this case, the bride should choose a fragrance that reflects her being.

The second useful tip for choosing the most suitable Arabian bridal perfume is to take into account the context and the location. Brides who care about etiquette should consider the fact that if the wedding is celebrated in church, it is preferable to wear a more delicate fragrance, which is not too intense and which does not risk "disturbing" the noses of the guests.

In closed environments, in fact, Arabic perfumes with sweeter and more delicate olfactory notes are much appreciated, for example those that fall within the olfactory family of gourmand or marine. A perfume that fits harmoniously into the context, without prevailing with too much opulence.

For weddings celebrated outdoors, however, the bride can go a little further and opt for more intense and seductive Arabic perfumes such as those of the chypre or oriental family. The brands Paris Corner and Maison Alhambra have created fragrances suitable for these contexts.

Last but not least, as they say, a tip for choosing the perfect Arabian bridal perfume for your wedding day is to stay on the same olfactory trail emanating from the bouquet of flowers that the bride holds in her hands.

There are many brides who pay more attention to details and who take care of every element of the wedding and who choose to follow a common thread between the colors, the decorations, the musical entertainment, and even the perfumes. They are those brides who want their bouquet to match the perfume they wear, and vice versa. And in fact, matching the perfume to the bouquet is always a much appreciated style choice. And also quite simple.

The types of flowers that make up the wedding bouquet are not many, generally roses, peonies, magnolias, freesias and white flowers in general are used. Each of these flowers has their olfactory counterpart, because almost all women's fragrances are made with floral notes. Floral perfumes are, in fact, the largest olfactory family, since it is possible to create an infinite number of combinations among the thousands of varieties of flowers present in nature.

Bonus tip: in our online shop there are many unisex fragrances available that could be chosen to create an olfactory pairing for a couple. There are many Arabic fragrances that go well together – to stay on topic – or that can be worn by both members of the couple, satisfying individual preferences.
