Forgot a gift for Valentine's Day?
Perfume is something that can be purchased even at the last minute, for example on the way home from work, so as not to arrive empty-handed.
But which perfume to buy?
For this purpose, you are invited to familiarize yourself with the study conducted by the American neurologist and psychologist, Dr. Alan Hirsch and designed to understand a person's expected personal taste according to their character.
Following the study that examined over 18 thousand people and compared the results to the aroma and taste preferences of the participants, the data was revealed and based on , Dr. Alan Hirsch created the guide that may help us match the scent of a perfume to a person we know.
So what is the favorite scent of sensitive people?
What scent will the so-called "party animals" connect to, and what is the favorite fragrance for those who tend to think too much, or in more direct words, "eat movies"?

The connection between a smell that a person likes and his character
"It's basically like a Rorschach test, only here the use is made of smell preferences," explains
Hirsch, a neurologist and psychologist specializing in the treatment of loss of taste and smell and the founder of the "Foundation for the Treatment and Research of Smell and Taste".
In his research, Hirsch conducted personality tests on the approximately 18,000 participants, and based on the findings, linked the smell of the perfume to the personality with the aim of accurately matching each person's favorite fragrance.
Among the research findings, which Hirsch referred to when purchasing a perfume for a loved one, we brought these:

When the realm of the mind meets the sense of smell
Jasmine fragrance for wild people - they are like vanilla fragrance lovers, only on steroids: chasing thrills, provocative and celebrating life.

And what do the perfume industry think about Dr. Hirsch's guide? "It's amazing to see that a professional in the field of the psyche took what we knew intuitively, and detailed it for research," describes Liyad Ron, owner of Essence Parfum. "For me, as a person who deals with perfumes, there has always been
a
feeling There is something personal here that is stronger and beyond the fragrance.
that perfume is a projection of character, of image.
The published research reinforces this, and for me sheds more light on who are the consumers of perfumes and what is their uniqueness."
