We all love perfumes. But have you ever given it a thought beyond its sweet enticing fragrance? Here, let’s take a look at some lesser known facts about fragrances.
Apply perfume on pulse points
You must have noticed your perfume scent fading after a few hours. The secret lies with the mode of application. Experts advice people to apply the scent on their pulse points because they radiate heat. This will help the fragrance last longer.
Moisture your skin before applying perfume
Using an unscented lotion before applying perfume can help the fragrance last long since oily skin has the ability to help the scent longer than dry skin.
Do not rub your wrists after spraying
Don’t dab the fragrance on your wrists after spraying. If you rub your wrists together, it will cause the scent to disappear faster than intended.
Pay attention to perfume concentration
When you purchase your perfume, check for the ratio of perfume to alcohol in the product, which is indicated by letters like EDP and EDT. Eau de perfumes (EDP) have more perfume and are more intense than Eau de toilettes (EDT) which are lighter. Read more about this
You can’t smell your own perfume after a few minutes
Have you ever noticed this? Yes, we all have. It is a condition called olfactory fatigue. It is the temporary, normal inability to distinguish a particular odor after a prolonged exposure to that airborne compound. Sniffing several different perfumes in a row will also lead to olfactory fatigue.
The reason is that the body sometimes becomes desensitized to stimuli to prevent the overloading of the nervous system, thus allowing it to respond to new stimuli that are ‘out of the ordinary’.
Skin type can change the way perfume smells
This means the same perfume can smell different on two different people. So why does scent smell so different on everyone? There are many factors including the pH balance of the skin, your diet, hormones and your natural body odor.
