What is the best way to apply perfume and fragrance to the body?

 

People have used perfume, oils and unguents on their bodies for thousands of years. Since earliest history, the perfume has always been a part of human culture.

When you apply perfume to your body make sure that a perfume is subtle and not overpowering because people who pass by should get a whiff of the pleasant smell and not be overcome by the odor and you should keep in mind that other people smell your fragrance much stronger than you as you become acclimated to the odor.

 

Here are some tips for wearing a perfume in the most effective way.

 

Apply perfume directly to the pulse points where the blood vessels are closest to the skin giving off more heat and acting like mini fragrance pumps inside the wrists, behind the ears, at the temples, behind the knees, the back of the neck, the cleavage area, between the toes, ankles and thighs. Make sure you do not rub wrists together as this crushes the smell.

Spraying a little into the air is also good if you walk straight into the perfume; this is the best method if you need a light fragrance and not lasting for long. You may also consider spraying over the hair and wearing in your bra a small ball of perfume-sprayed cotton wool.
