Little tricks: how to apply perfume
Knowing the special points on the body allows you to achieve the best opening and long preservation of the fragrance. So, experts allocate sixteen perfumery-active points on our body. They call them "warm" because in these places the blood vessels are close to the skin, and with such heating the fragrance on them "sounds louder". These points are located throughout the body, starting from the inner area behind the lobes of the ears, then the whiskey, neck, decollete, elbow bend, wrists, patches under the knees and at the ankles. The natural warmth of the skin in these areas will last long enough to preserve the aroma. But if you want to maximize the fragrance, perfumes need to be applied to the ankles, ankles, the inner thighs. Thus, when evaporated, the smell will rise, which will prolong the sound of the fragrance. In addition, perfectly absorb the fragrance of washed, dried hair. In this case, it is better to apply perfume on the comb and comb it with hair.
Also, experts advise to scent even before you get dressed. It is not recommended to "sprinkle" perfume or toilet water on clothes, as well as undesirable direct, profuse application of perfume to the skin and hair. When using an aerosol, it is recommended to spray it with a subsequent "diving" into a fragrant cloud, so that the aroma spreads evenly over the body. Well, if your favorite perfume is in a vial or in a test tube (a sampler), then lightly pat them skin.
Many ladies apply too much perfume, for fear that otherwise the fragrance will not be noticeable. Doing it wrong and, moreover, it is forbidden by rules of good tone. In etiquette, there is even such a thing as a "circle of fragrance" - this is a circle outside which people should not feel your perfume, no matter how expensive it is. Its radius is approximately the length of the outstretched arm. Remember that just a few drops are enough to exude a pleasant and at the same time unimaginative for the surrounding fragrance.
Aroma 24/7: How to choose persistent perfume
Persistence of spirits is the length of time during which they exude their fragrance. On average, this period is 5 hours and depends on many factors. The main factor is the concentration of aromatic substances: perfumes with different concentrations and are called differently. The most concentrated form - perfume (Perfum, Extrait) - is produced in small bottles of 7-15 ml, in which the share of aromatic substances is 20-30% and higher. Such perfumes are expensive and, as a rule, they are author's, conceptual fragrances with natural essences. Then comes perfume water (Eau De Parfum), in which the fragrant share is 15-25%. The next most popular is "toilet water" with a concentration of odorous substances from 10 to 20%.
Another factor of fragrance stability is the composition of perfume. The least persistent are the shades of aromas of herbs, leaves, water colors, and most are vanilla, cinnamon, musk, amber, cibetin.
If after a certain period of time, you find that the smell of perfume is not the same as it was with the purchase, then, most likely, you are storing the perfume incorrectly. So, under the influence of light or contact with the air, the spirits oxidize, evaporate and can change their original flavor and lose their stamina. Therefore, the best place for the storage of spirits is a dark closet or chest of drawers, where direct sunlight does not penetrate. And of course, do not forget to close tightly your favorite bottle and then the spirits will definitely delight you with their persistent fragrance for a long time.
