To prevent perfume from fading away after a couple of hours, you can resort to several tricks.

With the help of simple rules, you no longer have to rack your brains over how to keep your perfume scent throughout the day.

Skin or clothes

Many argue about where it is better to apply perfume - on clothes or on skin. The unambiguous answer from perfumers is on skin. The difference is that on clothes the "sound" of the aroma will be completely different.

"Secret" places

Experts highlight several areas where perfume should be applied. It is believed that this will make the perfume “open up” even better. The list includes:

  • back of the head;
  • wrists;
  • bending the elbows;
  • pit between the breasts;
  • hollows under the knees.

The secret is that it is here that the blood vessels are located closest to the skin. The warmth of the blood helps the scent of the perfume to open up better.

"Preservative" for smell

Water is a great "preservative" for scent. Perfume is best applied to the skin after a shower or bath.

You can't rub it

When a significant amount of perfume gets on an area, many people try to rub it on their skin. But this action only speeds up the evaporation of the aroma. After a few hours, there may be no trace of the smell left.

Petrolatum

According to perfumers, the scent is "fixed" on the skin with this product. First, Vaseline is applied, and then perfume is sprayed on the same place. Alternatively, another base is used, such as a moisturizing lotion.
