Have you ever looked at someone and thought, “This person looks like they smell good? ” I often think this when I watch a fashion show. Watching the models doing their catwalk up and down the runway leaves me mesmerized every time without fail.

Runway models are the epitome of high fashion. They have the power to set trends by making whatever they put on the next “it” thing, and this doesn’t exclude fragrances.

Who doesn’t want to smell like a runway model? But smelling like one isn’t just about wearing an expensive perfume; it’s about finding a signature scent, applying it correctly, and making it a part of your identity.

Apart from picking a fragrance that best shows your unique character, you should also choose one that is of high quality. Whenever I’m in Dubai, I visit V Perfumes because I know I will find what I want regarding price and quality there. You can visit any perfume store near you or go online and find a few options that align with your taste and budget.

Here’s your guide to smelling like a runway model.

Discover Your Signature Scent

Runway models often gravitate toward scents that complement their unique personalities and styles. To find yours:

  • Understand fragrance families: Become familiar with categories like floral, oriental, woody, and fresh.
  • Experiment: Visit a perfume store and test scents. Pay attention to how they evolve on your skin over time.
  • Match your vibe: A citrusy fragrance suits an energetic personality, while a sultry oriental scent complements a bold and confident aura.

Invest in High-Quality Perfumes

High-end fragrances often use ingredients of higher quality. This results in a complex, rich, long-lasting scent. This doesn’t mean you have to splurge, though.

If you know how to pick high-quality fragrances, you can find them on any budget. To ensure the perfume is worth the purchase, look up the brand and find out where it sources its ingredients, read reviews on the products, and always try on the perfume before committing to it. I always recommend you spray it on in the store and go about your day. Check how it performed throughout the day, which should give you your answer on whether or not the fragrance is worth buying.

Try Fragrance Layering

Layering different fragrances to create a scent that is unique to you will make you stand out. Being unique is one feature that runway models are selected for. The things that make them stand out, the things that make them different, are the same things that make them successful.

Stay Fresh Throughout the Day

A model’s fragrance isn’t overpowering but stays noticeable. Here’s how to make sure you stay smelling fresh and good throughout the day:

  • Carry a travel-sized perfume or a perfume atomizer for touch-ups.
  • Opt for fabric-friendly sprays to keep clothes smelling good.
  • Stay hydrated—healthy skin holds fragrance better.

Remember, confidence is key. As long as you are confident that your choice of fragrance is the one that represents you best, you will shine as bright as a thousand runway models.
