Perfume Tips for Long-Lasting Impact
Wearing a great perfume is only half the game making it last all day is where the magic really happens. Whether you're spritzing on your favorite AlWaahid fragrance or trying something new, these quick tips will help you make the most of every spray.
1. Target the Pulse Points
Apply perfume on your pulse points like your wrists, neck, inner elbows, and behind your ears. These areas emit heat, which helps diffuse and amplify the scent throughout the day.
2. Don’t Rub After Spraying
Avoid rubbing your wrists together after applying perfume. It breaks down the top notes of the fragrance, making it fade faster. Let it dry naturally for better longevity.
3. Moisturize Before You Spray
Perfume lasts longer on hydrated skin. Apply an unscented lotion or petroleum jelly on your pulse points before spraying. It creates a smooth base and helps lock in the fragrance.
4. Spray on Clothes (Carefully)
For added staying power, lightly spray perfume on your clothes. Just test a patch first — some perfumes may stain delicate fabrics.
5. Store Your Perfume Right
Keep your bottles away from direct sunlight and heat. A cool, dry place helps maintain the integrity and shelf life of the scent.
These simple tips can stretch your scent for hours, keeping you fresh and confident all day. Whether you’re headed to work or on a dinner date, a few smart tweaks make all the difference.
