Advice on how to choose presents of scent is given in the "Drapers' Record." The writer says: "A light flower perfume is most appropriate for the blonde, while for the brunette, or the Spanish style of beauty, the heavy type of Eastern blend is likely to be most acceptable. Dark women are seldom contented with light flowery odours like sweet pea, lily of the valley, or night-scented stock." Lavender water and eau-de^cologne are still favourites.
