Personal Preferences in Fragrances

Individuals have varying preferences when it comes to fragrances, with some expressing a more casual interest in perfumes and others having defined favorites. While one host indicates that they are not particularly passionate about perfume, they still find enjoyment in specific scents like aftershave or eau de toilette. Spending habits also vary; one host manages to keep their expenses below £100 a year on fragrance, showcasing an ability to make products last without a desire for a large collection. This illustrates that fragrance choices can be personal, budget-friendly, and occasionally influenced by practicality rather than passionate interest.
