1. Don't Rub Your Wrists Together

Don't Rub Your Wrists Together Pat your wrists together instead, so that you don't damage the scent.

2. Apply It before You Get Changed

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.

3. Use It Sparingly

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

4. 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.

Harness the allure of elegance and charm after your daily workout by accentuating your natural smell with a Cartier perfume.

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

Really useful 👌

Spray on neck, wrists and surprisingly behind your knees, the scent will last much longer .. Work it ladies!

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

That was an interesting tip about rubbing your wrists together. I always do that, but I will try patting them together next time to see how that works too.

Why would you buy different perfumes for your mood

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.

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

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.
