Here are the parameters to consider before choosing the best travel size perfume -

a) Destination- Make sure you consider the destination you're going to before picking the travel-size perfume. If you are traveling to beaches, you should pick a floral or citrusy scent that won't seem too overpowering. On the other hand, if you are traveling to a colder area, a woody or musky scent will go with the environment the best.

b) Preference- Apart from the destination, you should also keep your own preferences in mind before picking the right perfume. If you are a more sweet or fruity person, pick accordingly. And if you are a more woody or floral person, you know which one to choose from the list.

c) Longevity- Longevity often depends on the perfume you're choosing. If it is eau de parfum, it tends to last longer than eau de toilette. On the other hand, eau de cologne will last less than the two for having a lower concentration of essential oils in it.

d) Travel-friendly- Make sure the minis do not leak and come in a proper packaging. Also, ensure that the perfume bottles are made of durable material so that no breakage or spillage happens even if they slip away from your hand.
