Make the most of your fragrance and not let it vanish in just a few minutes. We have listed 10 ways you can make your scent linger on and smell good all day!
1. Store them in right place
If you want your expensive fragrances to last longer, make sure you store them in the right place. Keep the bottles away from light, heat—as this can affect your perfume’s quality. Try to store them in cool, dry places and away from the windows.
2. Apply after shower
Apply fragrance right after the shower. This will help to make the fragrance last longer, as the skin’s moisture will absorb the scent better.
3. Apply on the hair too
You can also use fragrance on your hair for better results. But make sure you don’t apply the fragrance directly, as few alcohol-based scents can damage hair. Look for specific fragrances designed for hair or just spray your regular one on the hairbrush before running it through your hair.
4. Try the lotion hack
Apply any non-scented lotion before applying the fragrance. This will make your scent last longer, as moisturised skin holds the scent better than dry skin.
5. Don’t rub your wrists
If you spray the perfume on your wrists, then don’t rub them together. This will actually break the scent and it’ll fade away easily.
6. Apply at the right points
Target the right pulse points when spraying:
*On your wrist
*On your neck
*Behind your knees
*Inside your elbows
7. Use cotton buds for touch-ups
You don’t always have to carry your perfume for touch-ups. Just spray some on cotton buds and carry them in a zip pouch for easy touch-ups throughout the day.
8. Scent your clothes too
Love the smell of fragrance on your clothes? Just spray your favourite scent on few tissue papers and keep them in-between your clothes, this will make your clothes lightly scented.
9. Make most of your pricey perfumes
Can’t get through the last few drops of your bottle? Just add the last bit to any non-scented lotion and smell almost the same.
10. Look for stronger notes
Choose the right scent for better longevity. While buying, look for stronger notes like vanilla, patchouli and musk that last longer.
