Buying tips for perfumes with pear

Store the bottle well. Heat, light and humidity break perfume down, so keep it in its box, in a cool drawer, and away from the bathroom.

Buy from trusted sellers. Genuine perfume should have clean packaging, a batch code and a consistent colour. The retailer links on each page are a good place to start, and prices that look too good to be true usually are.

Think about your climate. Heat and humidity shorten how long most perfumes last, so check the hot and humid longevity score before you choose a bottle for daily wear.
