Choose Fragrance and Perfume suitable for you
Women often choose their fragrance according to their personality and chemistry
without even realizing it. What appeals to them often reflects their personal
self.
Fragrances smell different on everybody, so it's best not to test a scent on a
friend. When shopping, stick to no more than three or four perfumes so you
don't confuse them. A fragrance will smell different several minutes after you
apply it, so give it some time before making any decisions.
Fragrance
Apply fragrance to your skin and pulse points only. Allow it to dry naturally.
Do not rub your wrists together, this will alter and diminish the scent. Avoid
using it near your face or behind your ears. There is no staying power in those
locations and this will only dry out your skin.
To avoid any stains and discoloration, do not get any on your clothing or
jewelry. Let your fragrance dry before getting dressed. Some perfumes are
darker and have more of a tendency to stain, so take special care with "dry
clean only" clothing that can't be washed after every wear. Follow proper
storage rules, fragrance will darken with age and improper storage.
For a longer staying aroma, apply the same scent in layers. Many fragrances
also come in bath soap, gel, and body lotion. Top off with perfume of the same
scent for the long run. This will probably last you six to eight hours.
Keep strong fragrances out of the office and workplace. Some people genuinely
have an allergy to perfumes and don't appreciate the irritation. They can
produce headaches and bring on an asthma attack, so apply sparingly.
Storage of Fragrance and Perfumes
Avoid extreme temperatures when storing fragrances. Keep your bottle tightly
capped, upright and out of direct sunlight. It's not necessary to store them in
the refrigerator, however, a cool, dark place should prolong the life of your
scent.
