How SG Influencers Layer Eau de Parfums for a Signature Scent

Image
  Introduction There’s a reason perfume layering is trending hard among style-savvy women in Singapore right now. And no, it’s not just a TikTok gimmick. From slow-mo GRWMs to curated vanities and flat-lay fragrance edits, SG influencers are shaping a new way to wear scent—not as one-note, but as something layered, evolving, and deeply personal. Instead of one perfume for all occasions, they’re blending two, sometimes three, complementary scents to match the day’s mood. They’re doing it with unique Eau de Parfums in an oil format, like the ones from Open Water SG. These are thoughtfully crafted impressions of iconic designer fragrances, made with layering in mind and designed to last in our tropical heat. These perfumes offer the elegance of high-end scents but in an oil texture that wears close to the skin, doesn’t overwhelm in small spaces, and shifts beautifully over time.
