FRAGRANCES – TIPS & TRICKS



 Perfume can be worn not only to enhance your fashion identity, but also to make a pleasant lasting impression. Here are a few creative ways to impress with your scent:







Spray your favorite perfume onto your hair brush before brushing your hair. It will last even longer than on your skin. Do not spray the fragrance directly, due to it could damage your hair.










To make the fragrance lasting, you should mist fragrance on your pulse points. Familiar spots such as your neck and wrists are great areas to mist, but to really make your scent last, try hitting these other pulse points too:  the back of the legs, specifically behind your knees;  the area just above your hip bones;  nape of your neck; cleavage,  small of your back;  insides of the elbows.












Apply an unscented antiperspirant so it does not clash with your perfume.












If you like to spray some perfume on your clothing, test it on hidden area of your garment first, such as an inner lining before spraying it all over. Be particularly careful with delicate and dry clean only fabrics as well as light colored clothing.










Apply your perfume far from your jewelry because this can damage them. Pearls can become discolored, while other jewelry can lose its outer covering.











Do you want to make your house smelling like you? It's easy: spray your favorite perfume on artificial flowers.











Do you wish to send a mail with your “brand”?  Spray stationary or greeting cards with some perfume or cologne – yours or the recipient’s favorite. Place them in a plastic bag, seal it and leave overnight. Send your letters or cards with a scented touch.













Applying the right amount of fragrance



Applying the right amount of cologne could be tricky if you really like the scent. But you, being a responsible cologne wearer, want to know the best method for applying cologne for different situations. 

When applying cologne there are some things that you need to consider:

Indoors:   Do not spray directly on the skin. Walk into the mist or spray directly above you.

Outdoors:   If it is windy or there is going to be a lot of movement, spray once directly onto the skin. The fresh air will dilute the scent but it will still warm up with your body when you need it.

Closeness:   If you are going to be sitting shoulder to shoulder with people for a long while, the best advice is to not use cologne at all. You can use an aftershave or body wash which will have less fragrant oils.
Spray in the air in front of you and walk into the mist.
Spray above your head so the mist falls on the top of your head, which can get stinky.

Tips about your fragrance:

Do not dilute your cologne so that you can spray it directly to your skin. Doing this will change the balance of your cologne and make the fragrance spoil quickly over time.

A fragrance is not designed to last all day. You will probably need to update it every three to four hours, depending on the chemical changes in your body daily, that reflect on your skin, as well as the kind of concentration of the fragrance:

Perfume (Parfum): up to 6 hours
Parfum De Toilette (PDT): Up to 5 hours
Eau de parfum (EDP): 3 to 5 hours
Eau de Toilette (EDT): 2 to 4 hours
Eau de Cologne (EDC): up to 2 hours
For Men Eau de Toilette (EDT): Up to 5 hours
Aftershave / after-shave lotion: 2 to 3 hours
Eau Fraîche: 2 to 3 hours
