Wearing Perfume: Do’s and Don’t's

25 April 2011 No Comment

Wearing perfumes do’s and don’t’s:

  • Less is more. Don’t wear too much perfume.  What is too much? Generally, 2-3 sprays, on the skin (never on clothes), and on the pulse points, is plenty enough.  Someone should be able to smell your perfume if they’re within 1-2 feet of you, not much more…And this applies to women and men alike.  There’s nothing more off-putting than a man walking by, smelling of cologne from 5 feet away, regardless of how good he looks…
  • Don’t spray fragrance on your clothes, the perfume might cause a stain.
  • Don’t rub perfume on your skin, always dab it.  Rubbing the perfume will damage the perfume molecules and may alter the smell.
  • Don’t wear perfume if you are going to sweat.  The scent might combine with the fragrant compounds and alter the fragrance unpleasantly.
  • Don’t re-apply perfume too often, it might be overpowering, best to wait at least 2 hours before re-applying.  Remember, less is more….
