With every passing day, we as humans change, grow and learn new things. We enter different phases and our emotions for the day vary. Some days we wake up happy, energetic and feeling adventurous, while others we feel calm, harmonious, or just plain lazy. These feelings and phases may all be represented through the color wheel! Red may represent a burning passion – for days when we walk with a pep in our step ready to take on the day, – while blue is for when we want the day to pass as quickly as possible and we are at unrest. Here are some perfumes to wear depending on what color of the rainbow you currently identify with!

Red

The color representing passion, anger, fire, and determination. Those who identify with this color live life bravely and freely. Nothing gets in the way of a person with a lust for life and shining confidence ready to break out! Consider these hot perfumes for the red hot soul:

• Giorgio Armani – Sì Passione
• Calvin Klein – Euphoria for Women
• Dunhill – Desire for Men
• Claude Marsal – La Melodie for Men

Orange

Mixing the hot passion of red with the enthusiasm and happiness of yellow, orange brings us a harmonious peace. Feeling orange is to feel that everything will work itself out. Those lucky enough to identify with this color bring joy wherever they go, as well as a reminder that there is nothing to worry about. Just do what makes you happy!

• Guerlain – Mon Guerlain
• Paco Rabanne – Olympea
• Givenchy – Pi
• Yves Saint Laurent – L’Homme

Yellow

Sunshine, smiles, and soaring cheerfulness! All of these things describe yellow souls, and we often know the instant we meet them. These people exude happiness and leave positive vibrations wherever they go, as should their perfumes!

• Yves Saint Laurent – Mon Paris
• Gerard Monet – La Brise for Women
• Carolina Herrera – 212 for Men
• Versace – Man Eau Fraiche

Green

The color representing nature, peace, and the essence of life. For days when we feel connected to the Earth and harmonious with the life around us do our auras begin to tint into the color green. It is in these times that we remember to take a step back from the hectic lives that we as humans lead and remember our roots.

• Chanel N°5
• Liron Parfums – Liron Pour Femme
• Creed – Green Irish Tweed
• Gucci – Gucci Guilty Pour Homme

Blue

We all know what it means to feel blue. Everyone goes through periods in their life of sadness and hardship. Although hard to go through, these times are significant in the development of human character. Without hard times, there wouldn’t be any good times! Here are some calm perfumes to make the “blues” feel just a little better.

• Giorgio Armani – Armani Code for Women
• Givenchy – Ange ou Demon
• Versace – Pour Homme
• Burberry – Mr. Burberry

Violet

The color of royalty. Those who identify with the color violet are kings and queens of their castles and don’t let outside forces and voices shake the walls they’ve built. A mix of confidence and security, violet characters are ready to take on the day regardless of what is thrown at them. Here are some perfumes to help bring out your inner royalty –

• Carolina Herrera – Good Girl
• Dior – Addict
• Yves Saint Laurent – La Nuit de L’Homme
• Gabriella Antosh – Zoltan

As a legendary American poet, Walt Whitman said,

“Do I contradict myself? Very well, then I contradict myself, I am large, I contain multitudes.”

People are ever changing, and it’s important to express yourself with every new phase of life that develops. No matter the color you currently identify with, there is always a perfume to match!
