Buying a new fragrance without spritzing it on first is a bit of a gamble. You may really love the way it smells on your skin once it arrives at your door or it may be overly cloying or too bitter. Now you can head on down to the mall or hit up your local Sephora or Ulta Beauty to test out a few aromas, but that takes time. Instead, save time and dollars by ordering perfume sampler sets to find your new fragrance.
Often called discovery sets, they're great ways to introduce yourself to new aromas. If there's one you fall hard for, you can order the full-size version. Plus, although they're mini size, you can keep spraying on the sample til the container runs dry.
Here are the best perfume sampler sets to try. They also make great gifts, which is important since the holidays are right around the corner.
