Applying your fragrance like a pro starts with preparing your skin as a clean, hydrated canvas. Right after your shower, when your pores are open and your skin is fresh, gently moisturise with an unscented lotion or a matching body cream, moisturiser or body oil, this helps the scent bind and last longer throughout the day. Once your skin is ready, target your warm pulse points wrists, neck, inner elbows, behind the ears, and where your body heat will naturally activate the fragrance and help it bloom. Hold the bottle a few inches away and spritz in a fine mist, allowing the scent to settle rather than saturating one spot. Avoid rubbing the fragrance into your skin, as this can break down the delicate notes and shorten its lifespan. For an extra layer of depth and longevity, you can lightly mist clothing from a distance, or experiment with scent layering by combining your perfume with a complementary body product — just be mindful of stains on delicate fabrics. A few mindful spritzes at key points creates a fragrance experience that feels personal, luxurious, and long-lasting.
