To ensure your Eau de Parfum (EDP) lasts longer, follow these expert tips for effective perfume application:
1. Apply on Moisturised Skin
Hydrated skin retains fragrance better. Apply your perfume after moisturising your skin or directly after a shower when your pores are open for maximum effect.
2. Target Pulse Points
Apply perfume to pulse points where your body heat will help diffuse the fragrance. Focus on:
• Wrists
• Neck
• Behind the ears
• Inside elbows
• Behind knees
3. Avoid Rubbing Your Wrists
Spritz the perfume on your pulse points and let it dry naturally. Rubbing your wrists together can break down the fragrance molecules, causing the scent to dissipate faster.
4. Layer Your Fragrance
Use matching or complementary scented products, such as body lotion, shower gel, and deodorant, to build up the scent and enhance its longevity.
5. Spray on Clothes and Hair
Your clothes and hair can hold the fragrance for a longer period. However, be cautious with delicate fabrics and avoid spraying directly on light-coloured clothes to prevent staining.
6. Store Perfume Properly
Keep your perfume in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and temperature fluctuations, which can alter the scent and reduce its longevity.
7. Use an Unscented Lotion
Applying an unscented lotion or petroleum jelly to your pulse points before spraying perfume can help lock in the fragrance, making it last longer.
8. Reapply as Needed
Carry a small travel-size bottle of your perfume to reapply throughout the day if necessary, ensuring a long-lasting scent.
By following these tips on how to apply Eau de Parfum, you can maximise the longevity of your perfume and enjoy its fragrance all day long.
