Follow these tips to maximize the longevity, projection, and overall experience of your perfumes:
1. Apply on Pulse Points
Perfumes last longer and smell richer when applied to pulse points—areas of the body where blood vessels are close to the skin:
- Wrists
- Neck / sides of the neck
- Behind ears
- Inner elbows
2. Do Not Rub the Perfume
After spraying, avoid rubbing your wrists together. Rubbing can break down the fragrance molecules and reduce longevity.
3. Spray on Clean, Moisturized Skin
Perfumes last longer on hydrated, clean skin. Apply unscented lotion or moisturizer before spraying to lock in the fragrance.
4. Clothing Application
You can lightly spray on clothes to extend the scent, but avoid direct application on delicate fabrics as oils may leave marks.
5. Layer Your Fragrance
For even more stronger and longer-lasting aroma:
- Use matching body lotion or shower gel if available.
- Apply perfume after showering when your pores are open.
6. Keep Your Perfume Fresh
Store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight. Heat, light, and humidity can degrade fragrance quality over time.
7. Moderation is Key
A few spritzes are sufficient. Over-applying does not improve the fragrance—it can be overwhelming.
8. Test Before Special Occasions
Fragrances can smell differently on every person. Test a small amount before applying for an event to ensure it complements your skin chemistry.
9. Travel-Friendly Tips
Use smaller bottles or travel sprays when on the move. Avoid carrying perfume in hot places like the car dashboard to prevent evaporation and breakdown.
10. Enjoy Your Signature Scent
Every fragrance has a unique personality. Wear it confidently, and let it reflect your style and elegance.
