Little Girls Are Made of… Florals

Perfume, Scents Add comments

Perfume is a great gift for little girls, provided that care is taken in choosing the right scent. For this age group, delicate florals are an excellent choice, as these sorts of fragrances are a bit more forgiving of the application mistakes common to those first learning the art of wearing perfume. Heavier scents, particularly when a bit too much is dabbed or sprayed, may become a bit overwhelming to those in the immediate area. Furthermore, those heavier, more earthy scents simply are not really appropriate to the age group, calling a woman to mind, rather than the fragrance of childhood innocence.

 

 

Many of the florals suitable for little girls offer a sort of floral melody with one note standing out, supported by a variety of other complementary floral notes. Flower Fairies Sweet Pea is one does that beautifully. Other nice choices, such as Crab Tree and Evelyn’s Lilac, have a stronger focus on a single floral note. Fragrances like this are delicate, yet lasting. Reasonably priced fragrances, such as these, are the best choice, if the plan is that the perfume is to be kept and used by the little girl, rather than being a special occasion treat that is typically held in mommy’s collection until used.

 

 

While there other fragrance types marketed for children, florals just seem so much lovelier than sharply artificial sticky sweet candy inspired or strawberry-fruity types of scent. Many fragrances are also available with matching bath products and lotions. The layering of fragrance products is an excellent way to make a scent last for a long time. It is, however, important to remember that children’s skin can be very sensitive, and to choose such items with an eye on the ingredients. Some bath additives, like bubble bath, can be very drying to the skin.

 

 

Fragrance can be used to set a mood, and as every parent knows, mood and behavior are closely related. A relaxing scent, such as lavender or honeysuckle, can help ease the transition into bedtime and encourage a restful night’s sleep. Green smelling, energetic florals, such as lily of the valley, can be just what is needed to help bring a positive start to the day, particularly for those that tend towards a bit of sluggishness in the morning. Naturally, perfume etiquette should be a part of a little girl’s learning how to apply and use perfume.

 

 

Every little girl should have a bit of perfume to call her own, a bottle or two to spritz or dab on when she pleases. There are numerous moderately priced, quality fragrances to choose from. Delicate florals are the right choice for this age group, not too grown-up, and are the perfect way to introduce the joys of wearing perfume.
