Apply It before You Get Changed Don't spray it on your clothes. Spray it on your body and throat to make the scent last.

Use It Sparingly

Use It Sparingly After all, you don't want someone from across the room to start coughing when you enter.

Don't Buy It Right Away

Don't Buy It Right Away Spray samples on your body, but then wait 20 minutes to see how the scent smells after it has diffused on your body.

Buy Multiple Brands

Some says apply Vaseline before you apply the perfume so that the scent lasts longer (in scale of hours or maybe a day )

Never spray perfume on your jewelry; for instance on your necklace. I heard that the accessory losses its shine.

Really useful 👌

I live for number 5 , how's I wear it doesn't really matter, as long as I feel good, smell good and look good.

I love smelling nice it's the only way to go :)

Great tips, only, if you are going to buy different brands, don't buy to much cause parfume has a expiry date

Why don't perfume makers sell their expensive perfumes in smaller bottles? They would not denature and lose their scent. We would be tempted to buy more because the price would be lower. My daughter and I exchange bottles when half the bottle is used.

Great tips. Also petroleum jelly is suppose to make your scents last MUCH longer

Umm... you can't damage a scent by rubbing your wrists together.

I mos def agree with sampling first before buying. Bring a tester bottle with you and see how your body reacts to it. I've collected over 100 perfumes and 40% of them don't last that long (more than 6 hours).
