What fragrance type am I?

Does the scent of magnolia blossoms smell slightly exotic to you, transporting you to faraway lands? Or do you prefer the scent of vanilla because it evokes a pleasant, cozy feeling?

Around 400 receptors in the nose ensure that we can process smells in the brain. This creates an overall impression of a scent that is different for each person. Whether we find a scent attractive or repulsive depends primarily on our experiences and the context in which we perceive the scent.

For example, one person might prefer a magnolia scent, while another might find it far too intense or exotic. We'll now tell you why we perceive smells differently and help you figure out which VANDINI fragrance type you are.

VANDINI fragrance types

The relaxed one
Are you a relaxed person for whom comfort is very important? Then we recommend the VANDINI COMFORT range . It has a seductive vanilla blossom scent and, with floral water, macadamia oil, and the COMFORT complex, supports the natural barrier function of dry, demanding skin. Vanilla is considered a "primal scent" and may even remind you a little of your childhood . There's a simple reason for this: We already know the scent of vanilla from our mother's milk. Many of us associate vanilla with a feeling of comfort , and the scent has a relaxing effect on us.

The romantic streak
Are you emotional and sensitive, always willing to listen to your friends, and love romantic strolls at sunset? Then sensual, floral notes best emphasize your personality. We recommend the VANDINI HYDRO range . The pleasantly elegant magnolia blossom scent of HYDRO care products caresses the senses. The HYDRO complex also supports your skin's natural moisture levels.

The sensually graceful
Stylish, elegant, graceful. No false modesty: Do these attributes describe you? Then the VANDINI NUTRI range, with its sensual, slightly exotic peony scent, is perfect for you, embracing your sensual grace. NUTRI skincare products caress the senses and provide intensive care for dry skin.

Why do we perceive smells differently?

But why does some things smell good to us, but not at all to our best friend, for example?

According to researchers, our perception of smells has a lot to do with the experiences we associate with that particular scent. For this reason, some fragrances can emphasize your personality better than others: For example, if you use VANDINI NUTRI products and meet someone with your positive charisma and zest for life , they will later be more likely to associate the scent of peony with this positive experience and good mood.

The same applies to the other scents. We've known vanilla since our earliest childhood, and the smell somehow makes us feel safe, as our brain recalls the corresponding memories . This is primarily because memories are better stored through smells than through visual impressions.

Context also affects how we perceive smells. If you're told about a particularly fragrant dish, it will probably smell good to you. If you're told about a bad-smelling dish, you'd probably perceive it that way, too.

Have you found out which fragrance suits you best? Then give it a try!
