5 Quick Tips to Make Your Perfume Last All Day
We’ve all been there: you spritz on your favourite perfume in the morning, only to find that by lunch, the scent is barely noticeable. But don’t worry, there’s a way to keep that luxurious fragrance with you all day long!
Here are 5 simple tips to help your perfume last from morning to night—without constantly reapplying.
1. Apply Right After You Shower
The best time to apply your perfume is right after you’ve showered.
Why It Works
Your skin is clean and still slightly damp, which helps lock in the fragrance. When your skin is hydrated, it holds scents much better. The oils in your perfume also bond more effectively with moisturised skin, making your fragrance last longer.
Pro Tip
Avoid rubbing your skin dry with a towel. Instead, gently pat your skin to keep it moist.
2. Focus on Pulse Points
It’s not just about where you apply your perfume, but how you apply it.
Where Are Pulse Points?
Pulse points are areas on your body where the blood vessels are closest to the skin, such as your wrists, neck, behind your ears, and even the crook of your elbows. These areas naturally produce more heat, which helps to diffuse and intensify the fragrance.
Pro Tip
Spray your perfume on these spots and allow it to settle without rubbing. Rubbing breaks down the fragrance molecules and can actually cause your perfume to fade faster.
3. Layer with a Scented Lotion
If you want your fragrance to stick around longer, try layering it with a matching scented lotion or oil.
Why It Helps
A moisturising lotion helps create a base for your perfume, ensuring the scent lasts longer. And if you can find a lotion or body oil that matches your fragrance, you’ll have a solid, long-lasting scent foundation.
Pro Tip
Opt for non-alcoholic perfumes like Eden Aroma’s range, which naturally pair well with moisturising products, providing a richer and longer-lasting fragrance experience.
4. Avoid Rubbing Your Wrists Together
It’s a common habit to spritz perfume on your wrists and then rub them together, but this can actually cause the fragrance to fade faster.
Why It Doesn’t Work
Rubbing the wrists can break down the fragrance molecules, altering the scent and causing it to dissipate more quickly. Instead, let the perfume settle naturally.
Pro Tip
Simply spray once on each wrist and let the perfume dry naturally. The heat from your pulse points will diffuse the scent beautifully.
5. Store Your Perfume Properly
It might sound simple, but the way you store your perfume can make a huge difference in how long it lasts—not just on your skin, but in the bottle as well.
Why It Matters
Perfume is sensitive to light, heat, and humidity, all of which can alter the fragrance’s composition and reduce its longevity.
Pro Tip
Store your perfume in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keeping it in its original box or in a dark cupboard will help preserve the scent for longer.
