Tips & Tricks For Buying, Wearing & Storing Fragrance
Check out some of our favourite tips below for buying, wearing and storing your fragrances.
- Ensure your skin is moisturized. Fragrance won’t last long on dry skin.
- Apply fragrance first thing in the morning. It should be the first thing you put on, not the last.
- Wear your perfume on the hotspots of the skin (behind the knees, ears, on wrists).
- Don’t rub or disturb fragrance once applied. A common mistake is to apply fragrance to one wrist and rub wrists together to transfer the scent, but this is a mistake. Rubbing actually breaks down the molecules, also known as “crushing the fragrance,” making it last for less than it normally would.
- Store Properly. Fragrances are degraded by heat and light, so make sure you’re storing your perfumes in a cool, dry area away from the sun. Also storing in the original fragrance box will add to the longevity of the fragrance.
- Always try a fragrance on before you buy it. Fragrance can smell different when applied on the skin.
