1. Embrace the Steam: Apply After a Shower or Bath
One of the best times to apply perfume is right after a shower or bath. The warm water and steam open up your pores, allowing your skin to better absorb the fragrance. As your body cools down and your pores close, they'll trap the scent, making it last longer throughout the day. So, make it a ritual to indulge in your favourite fragrance after your daily cleansing routine.
2. Create a Scent Canvas: Moisturize Before Spritzing
Before reaching for your fragrance, consider moisturising your skin with a light lotion or Vaseline. Hydrated skin not only holds onto fragrance molecules better but also releases them more slowly, providing a longer-lasting scent. Focus on areas such as the wrists, neck, and behind the ears for an even more indulgent experience.
3. Pulse Points are Key: Apply Behind the Ears
Pulse points are areas on the body where blood vessels are closer to the skin, radiating heat and enhancing the development of fragrance. One of the most effective pulse points for perfume application is behind the ears. Gently dab or spritz your fragrance in this area, allowing the scent to mingle with your natural body heat, creating a captivating and lasting aroma.
4. Gentle Touch: Wrists Are Fragrance Hotspots, But Don’t Rub
The wrists are classic locations for applying perfume, thanks to their pulse points. However, the common mistake of rubbing your wrists together after application can break down the delicate scent molecules and alter the fragrance. Instead, allow the fragrance to air dry on your skin. This preserves the integrity of the scent, ensuring it unfolds beautifully throughout the day.
5. 'Spritz and Step': Walk into Your Fragrance
For a more subtle and even distribution of your favourite fragrance, try the 'Spritz and Step' technique. Hold the fragrance a short distance from your body, spray in front of you, and then walk into the mist. This method ensures an even application across your clothes and hair, leaving you with a captivating aura that lingers throughout the day.
