Abuja—Many people often complain about perfume smells and how short they last on the body. But oftentimes the secret to making perfumes last longer when we wear them is in the application.
According to a perfume expert and businessman, Jah Abdul, there are a few things to note and do before wearing perfumes in order to make the smell last longer.
He said the type of one’s skin, points in the body where the perfume is applied all play major factors in making perfumes smell longer.
Abdul mentioned the following five tips on how to wear perfumes and make them last longer:
“1. Take a shower or bath before spraying the perfume: to make your fragrance last longer and brighter, apply it right after the shower or bath. Make sure your skin is already dry and only then spray the fragrance.
“2. Moisturize your skin: apply the fragrance after moisturizing your skin. You can use an unscented cream or body lotion with the same scent, as your perfume, if you have one.
“3. Use Petroleum Jelly: if you have dry skin, apply a little bit of petroleum jelly to the pulse point before spraying the fragrance. It will make your perfume last longer because oily skin keeps the scent of the fragrance better.
“4. Choose the right points: if you wonder where to apply perfume, the answer is to the pulse point, where the arteries are closest to the surface of the skin, and where you can feel your heartbeat.
“5. Don’t rub your wrists: after spraying the fragrance on your wrists, don’t rub it. It can make your perfume sound not correctly and last less because rubbing makes the top notes disappear faster.”
