Our perfume lingers for 10 to 12 hours on average. Obviously this depends on a number of factors, such as quality, concentration of oils, and percentage of fragrance ingredients. Another factor is how well the fragrance is absorbed into the skin. With drier skin, the perfume will not absorb as quickly as with oilier skin.

Tip: Do not rub the spot where you have put the perfume on. This breaks down the structures of the perfume, making it less long-lasting. Make sure that you do not to apply the perfume to dry skin.

When choosing a perfume, you would prefer to smell as many different perfumes as possible. Unfortunately, our noses usually cannot handle more than 3 different scents, depending on the person. Also, smell a perfume several times; sometimes, you smell only the top notes at first, and later the heart notes and base notes.

Tip: Use coffee beans to neutralise the scent. Do not spray the perfume too close to your nose, but use your wrists (do not rub).

Many people put on more than 4 sprays of a perfume so that they keep smelling it for a long time. With our perfumes, 2 to 3 sprays are more than enough to enjoy a perfume for a long time. 2 sprays are enough for eau de parfum, since this is much stronger than eau de toilette. Sometimes it may seem that you can no longer smell the perfume, but that is because your nose stops smelling a scent after 15 minutes. So that does not mean that other people can no longer smell the perfume as well.

Tip: Use a maximum of 2 sprays for eau de parfum. That means the perfume doesn't run out as quickly and you can enjoy it for longer.
