8 Black-Owned Fragrance Brands For Perfume Lovers To Indulge
Check out these eight Black-owned perfumes.
The gift of fragrance is one of the easiest presents to give for the holiday season, as you don’t need to know what size a person wears or their favorite color. Plus, they make good stocking stuffers.
It may help to know what types of scents tickle their fancy. What appeals to people, and what might turn people off is often triggered by olfaction, that good ol’ sense of smell. So, when selecting perfumes to gift, keep that in mind. If you are unsure of scents that appeal to the recipient of the gift, play it safe. Err on the side of caution and opt for softer smells like fruit, citrus or floral over woody, spicy, or outdoors.
To make it even easier, BLACK ENTERPRISE has found eight Black-owned fragrance brands for perfume lovers to indulge.
