Simple yet efficient suggestions on “how to make your scent stay longer” from our perfumer.
When you spend your money, time, and effort picking your ideal or preferred perfume for the day, only to find out shortly after that the aroma has vanished or is very weak, it may be really disheartening, to put it mildly.
Thank goodness, it need not be that way.
Here are 10 top suggestions from a perfumer on how to make perfume last longer and how to improve your fragrance so it lasts all day.
Enjoy Your Fragrance For Longer:
- Keep your favorite perfume out of direct sunlight and in a cool, dark location. Your scent will lose quality, duration, and color when exposed to light and heat.
- Wherever you intend to spray your fragrance, apply an unscented moisturizer or lotion to the affected portions of your skin. The lotion will help the scent ‘bond’ to your skin and extend its life.
- Apply your perfume on your wrists, behind your knees, and on your ankles, as well as to your pulse points.
- Avoid touching your wrists as this may cause the light top notes to evaporate faster. Typically, top notes are airy and crisp.
- Fan your hair or let it air dry, then lightly mist it with fragrance. While the perfume will be hidden by your hair to lessen evaporation during the day, it will still be noticeable if you move.
- Choose a scent that complements and suits you, and if at all feasible, choose a “Eau de Parfum” over a lighter “Eau de Toilette” or “Eau de Cologne.” Although it may initially cost more, “Eau de Parfum” has greater value since it has a higher concentration of oils that will linger longer on the skin.
- Another great approach to keep your favorite perfume with you and surround yourself with it is to lightly spritz or spray it on your clothing, favorite scarf, or both. However, you should exercise extreme caution while spraying because the oil in the perfume might stain clothing if you do so excessively and up close. Maybe spraying the air and walking through it would be a better solution.
- Apply your perfume right before dressing after taking a shower and after you’ve done moisturizing your skin (ideally with an unscented lotion or oil). This will help the perfume stick to your skin and clothes and release gently throughout the day as you move and your body temperature changes.
- While wearing it during the day, layer it. The fragrances in the Pairfum London Collection can be worn alone or layered. One strategy is to pick a complementary perfume to use throughout the day after selecting your “Morning” scent. The only restriction is your creativity, therefore you may also make your own distinctive characteristic perfume.
- The most crucial “Tip” is to pick a perfume that you adore and that reciprocates your affection. In other words, choose a fragrance that matches you. When you receive praises, you know you have chosen well.
Now you too can make your fragrance last longer.
