"Hello. My name is Gabriela Garzon at G.G. Image and Etiquette Consulting in Miami, Florida. In this clip, I'm going to talk about how to choose perfume. Choosing a perfume, it's a very delicate and sensitive type of thing. So we have to choose, because it has to deal with your personality. If you have a stronger personality or a weaker type of personality, kind of like sweeter, than you should choose perfumes accordingly to your personality and the things that you do in a daily...thing, you know, your daily activities. So basically, as a rule of thumb, you should use stronger perfumes at night, and just lighter and very floral type of scents during the day. If you have an oily skin, it's best if you use really light perfumes. Sort of like day type of perfumes, like this one that we have, Vera Wang Princess. It's a very light, kind of sweet type of perfume, and you also have a more like wood type of smells like this Ralph Lauren that's for during the day, and like I said before, if you have oily skin, you should wear just lighter because it's going to stay longer in your skin, and if you have drier skin you should wear stronger type of perfumes. So just consider your personality and the type of things that you do in a daily basis, and what type of skin you have in order to maintain the perfume in your body which should last at least three to four hours. Once again, this is Gabbie at G.G. Image and Etiquette Consulting."
