Are you the type of person who likes to shower themselves with perfume, thinking it is the right way to apply it? Well, you’d be surprised to find out how this is definitely not the right way to apply it, and most definitely does not guarantee the longevity of the scent.

Knowing which are the right places to apply it makes all the difference when it comes to smell and its effect. Hence it is important to know where to apply it. There are many areas on the body where it can be applied, but knowing the best spots and taking care of how to apply it could only extend the longevity and smell better. You weren’t really aware of how much philosophy was behind it, weren’t you? Well, there is. And if you keep reading our article, you’ll learn all the tips and tricks that will make people turn their heads because of how good you smell.

What you already know…

The classic rule all of us stick to is to apply it on the wrists and neck. But, the reality is that there are a number of key places to spray in order to get the maximum effect.  So where should you spray it? Let’s start by saying that the best places where the body naturally generates heat are PULSE POINTS and a few other key places. “Pulse points” are places on the body where the blood vessels are closest to the skin. These spots emit heat, which can help the scent from your skin pass into the air.

1. Apply It Right After Bathing

A warm bath widens the pores which means it’s the right time to apply. Even if you take a shower in cold water, it will surely smell longer if you spray it on clean skin – just make sure it is dry first.

FIND A PULSE

To “lock” the scent on the skin, apply it to the points where you find a pulse on your neck, wrists, elbows, and back of the knee … These are the warmest spots on the body, which means that the scent will spread best there.

2. Hydrate the Skin With Vaseline or Body Cream Before Application

Apply Vaseline to the previously mentioned points before perfume if you will be away from home all day or if you are celebrating with colleagues or friends after work. This is the key hack for making sure it lasts through all your busy daily activities.

3. Do not rub your wrists after spraying

You probably do this without even being aware of it. It is this habit that allows the deep notes of the perfume to “disappear” first. It has nothing to do with increasing the scent.

4. Discreet smell

A strong scent can bother your colleagues, so if you use just such, spray it in the air and go underneath. The small perfume particles will ensure just enough is applied not to bother anyone around you.

5. Learn how it is tested

To make the impression complete, you do not smell it immediately after application, but you allow it to “Settle” on the skin. The first spray reveals only the top note, which disappears quickly after application anyway, so it does not serve as a true odor indicator. Use this knowledge when you go to buy a new perfume.

6. Proper storage

Never store it in the bathroom because it is humid and warm there, and this can impair the quality of the perfume. It must be stored in a dry, cool place in the original packaging. Also, make sure it is not in direct light.

7. First spray then put on your clothes

If you have a habit of getting dressed first and then applying perfume, it’s time to stop. Apply it first, then put on clothes. This is the best way to put it on the desired points, and along the way, you will avoid stains on clothes.

8. Change from time to time

This may sound like a marketing ploy, but behind this advice is a scientific explanation. Did you know that when we use the same scent for a long time, our brain can “switch it off” so as not to stimulate the senses too much?

You may have noticed this when you enter the house and the smell from the kitchen is felt, but the person cooking it doesn’t even notice it anymore. It’s the same with perfumes. Therefore, it is best to apply a different one every day to activate the sense of smell and enjoy it more. You can always visit dossier.co and pick a fresh note.

Also, have you ever noticed how the same scent can smell different on two people? It is because, the perfume has fragrant notes that can vary depending on the pH value of the skin, oils, and body temperature. So maybe some that your friend is wearing smell great on her, but when you put it on, it doesn’t have exactly the same scent.

Likewise, skin type can affect its longevity. A lot of people forget to hydrate their skin and because of that, the scent disappears within an hour.

Why do perfumes last longer on hydrated skin?

Experts claim that hydrated skin can retain its scent for much longer. And that’s because a healthy, hydrated lipid barrier has more natural oils that the scent can “catch” on, while it will simply disperse on dry skin. In addition, those who have hydrated skin need less and its scent is more intense.

You may have heard of the popular trick of applying it right after showering. The reason why this works lies in the fact that the skin is naturally hydrated with water, and this helps to keep the scent of the perfume.

We’ve mentioned there’s a whole philosophy behind this subject at the beginning of our article, and now we’ve proved it. If you were having trouble understanding why the scent isn’t so lasting and was blaming it on the brand, now you know you’ve just been ignorant on how to properly apply the perfume.
