Layering Marianella Scents
Scent is personal. It is memory, mood, presence.
Layering allows you to shape that presence.
To create something that feels uniquely yours.
Our fragrances are designed to be combined.
Each one is crafted with balance and clarity so the notes blend beautifully, never overwhelming the skin.
Consider this your guide to building your signature scent.
How to Approach Layering
-
Start with your base
Choose the deeper, warmer scent first.
This anchors the fragrance on the skin. -
Add a bright note
A cleaner, citrus or floral scent adds lift and dimension. -
Let the scents rest on the skin
Always allow a few seconds for warmth to bloom the fragrance.
Layer slowly.
Breathe between each step.
Notice what unfolds.
This is not about instructions.
It is about listening to your senses.
