How to Wear Perfume
Perfume is a mixture of fragrant essential oils and/or aroma compounds and solvents which are human skin friendly and provides a beautiful feeling for the whole day. Perfumes come in many forms such as spray, lotions and deodorant. Wearing it right can make all the difference. There are times we purchase the best perfumes in the market and still do not feel so good about it. The nice fragrance doesn’t remain on our body for long. The reason may not be the usage of bad perfume instead it could be wrong way of applying it. Here are some of the ways in which you can put on perfume effectively.

When you apply perfume on these parts they tend to stay longer and give that lovely feeling of your favorite fragrance for all day long. Use from Distance: Use the perfume from a distance. Spray it from a distance of minimum six inches so that the area should be moistened but not spotted. Too Much is No Good: Do not over apply perfume that may confuse your senses. The nose becomes desensitized and the person is not able to smell their own perfume. Don't Rub: Do not rub the perfume. When you spray it on your wrists avoid the need to rub them up as it will break the perfume’s composition. That may deteriorate the lovely smell of your perfume. Don't Experiment Mixing: Avoid using a mixture of perfumes at one time. Do not mix and match in case of perfumes. If you apply perfume-1 on your hands there is no use of applying perfume-2 on your neck, it won’t give you a beautiful feeling instead irritate the senses. Find Your Favorite: Select a perfume that suits you best. If you love light fragrance then go with it, do not keep changing perfumes that may harm your skin and may make you confused after sometime. Try Layering but Carefully: If you wish your fragrance to stay longer then try some layering. Use the body products which have same scent and of same brand. Many scents will mix this way and give you the desired result. Proper layering of products is required. Do not put a perfume and apply body lotion on it. That will dissolve the perfume. Use bath gel first, then body lotion and later use perfume. Watch out for Concentration: Perfumes come in different concentrations, use one accordingly that is if you go out in sun or sweat a lot always go for perfume else use eau de perfume. If you want a very soft scent then go with eau de toilette.
Wearing the right perfume in the right manner is a task which is not learnt easily. You need to decide on the kind of smell first. It takes a lot of trial and error in deciding your scent but once selected follow the steps above and see the difference! Author: Himadri Dimri More on Fashion and Style |
