There is no correct number of fragrances to own. The useful question is whether each scent has a job.
One fragrance can be enough
If you love consistency, a single signature scent may be exactly right. You can use related formats to carry the same fragrance through different parts of your routine.
Three to five creates a simple wardrobe
A small fragrance wardrobe might include something clean, something dark, something soft, something warm and one seasonal wildcard. That gives variety without turning your shelf into storage.
More only helps if you enjoy rotation
Collectors may genuinely enjoy dozens of scents. Other people feel overwhelmed by too many options. Neither approach is more sophisticated.
