How to Choose and Apply the Perfume

With so many fragrances and bottles, it's easy to hesitate at the counter of a perfumery. Here's how to find the fragrance you are looking for.
Think about what you need - work, field trips, romantic evenings, dinner parties or holidays hot?
Make a list of fragrances that you like, the classic ones and those worn by your friends or you've tried in perfumery.
Go in perfumery with a wide selection of options and you should contact a friendly seller.
Refer to the seller what you like and for what occasion you need them: she will be able to recommend different fragrances in the same family.
Spray the perfume on strips of paper and write on their behalf. To "clean" the nose between the aroma and the other, you can smell a woolen garment like a scarf or sweater.
Shrink it down to three - spray one on each wrist and one on the forearm. Continue to imagine where you wear perfume.
Wait a few hours to make sure that the scents change and adapt to your skin. If the fragrance continues to like each time the sniff, buy it!


Coco Chanel advised to put the scent wherever expected to be kissed. Apply perfume before dressing, spraying it on your wrists and neck. The smell tends to rise, then put some 'even on the ankles and behind the knees. Sprinkles from the distance of an arm, so the perfume is not concentrated in a single point.
You can also spray a cloud of perfume and through it.
Do not overdo it: three sprays of eau de parfum spray and five in the case of an eau de toilette is sufficient.
For a lasting fragrance, use soap, lotion and perfume of the same line.


The aroma of a fragrance changes after wearing because the scent is a mix of essences, called "notes", which evaporate at different times.
Top Notes: These are the first that you feel. Mainly citrus aromas, fruity and green; take about 15-30 minutes.
Heart Notes: They develop later. These notes are warmer, especially floral and wood, lasts 2-3 hours.
Base Notes: Damage depth to a fragrance. Last 4-6 hours and are the richest known as musk, vanilla and amber.
