Chinese Zodiac Perfume Guide

Chinese Zodiac Perfume Guide: Discover Your Perfect Riiffs Fragrance

Selecting a perfume is a very individual choice; it is associated with one’s personality, fashion sense, or even mood. Yet, what if your personality type according to Chinese zodiac sign could be used to identify your ideal perfume?

The Chinese zodiac has served for centuries to reveal certain personality traits, talents, and natural features of individuals. There are 12 signs in the Chinese zodiac each associated with distinctive characteristics that affect one’s thinking and behavior in general. Interestingly, personality traits of each sign can match fragrances from different fragrance groups.

Be it assertive as a Tiger, graceful as a Rabbit, or bold as a Horse, there is always going to be a fragrance family that goes with your personality.

At Riiffs Perfumes UK, we firmly believe that everyone is entitled to have a signature scent that truly represents who they are. This is why in our guide below, we aim at guiding you through discovering the relation between your Chinese zodiac sign and the type of fragrance family for you.

Discover your Chinese zodiac and your unique Riiffs scent!

What Is the Chinese Zodiac?

This type of astrology is believed to be quite old and was developed more than 2,000 years ago. It differs from the Western zodiac as the latter is determined by the birth month, while the Chinese zodiac includes 12 years in a cycle when every year is associated with a certain animal.

The year of birth defines the animal you belong to, and each animal has its set of personality traits.

Popular fragrance families include:

  • Floral
  • Citrus

  • Oriental
  • Amber
  • Gourmand

Consider Your Skin Chemistry

Perfumes react differently to each person. Make sure to apply a perfume to your skin before selecting one.

Think About the Season

Day vs Evening

Light scents are great during the daytime, while rich scents are best for night time and special occasions.

Prioritise Longevity

Choose scents that have wood, amber or oriental notes at their base.
