Do you find your Favorite perfume fading too quickly? You’re not alone. But the good news is — there are simple tips to help your fragrance last all day.
Here are the best ways to make your perfume stay stronger, longer:
- Moisturize Before Spraying
Perfume clings better to moisturized skin. Apply an unscented lotion or petroleum jelly on pulse points before spraying your fragrance. Dry skin absorbs scent faster, making it fade quickly.
- Apply on Pulse Points
Pulse points are areas where your blood vessels are close to the skin, generating more heat:
- Neck
- Wrists
- Behind ears
- Inside elbows
- Back of knees
These spots help diffuse and amplify your fragrance.
- Don’t Rub Your Wrists Together
It’s a common habit, but rubbing breaks down the top notes and disrupts the fragrance structure. Instead, let it dry naturally on your skin.
- Spray After Showering
After a warm shower, your pores are open and your skin is clean — the perfect time to apply perfume. It helps the scent absorb and stay longer.
- Layer With Matching Products
Use body wash, lotion, or oils with the same scent family as your perfume. Layering builds intensity and helps the scent last.
- Store Your Perfume Properly
Heat, light, and air can break down a perfume’s ingredients:
- Keep it in a cool, dry place
- Store it away from direct sunlight
- Avoid keeping it in the bathroom
- Spray on Clothes and Hair (With Caution)
Perfume can cling to fabric and hair — just test first to avoid stains or dryness. Spray from a distance or use a hair mist version if available.
Bonus Tip:
Reapply with a travel-size version or sample vial during the day if needed. And choose Eau de Parfum over Eau de Toilette for stronger longevity.
With the right techniques, your Favorite scent can last from morning to night — making sure you leave a trail of fragrance wherever you go.
