Fragrances are an integral part of many people's lives these days. But there are women who always smell good, no matter what time it is. We reveal eight secrets that reveal why these women always smell good.
1. Choose stronger scents
While the citrus scents quickly evaporate, the tangy, woody and earthy scents they stay longer on the skin. Perfumes with a woody note usually contain sandalwood or patchouli, and their sweetness is reduced by cedar and vetiver. So if you want the perfume to last longer, choose the one from the last group.
2. Apply the scent in layers
From shower gels to lotions and body oils, all such fragrances come in different forms. By using these types of products, odors are created that remain on the skin all day.
3. Apply perfume to the right places
Instead of the wrist, the perfume is applied to a warmer one (and often more hidden) places on the body such as the abdomen and chest and behind the knees and ears. Due to the warmth of these parts of the body, there will be a smell fully developed, and the top, middle and base notes of the perfume will be fully felt.
4. Never rub perfume
Many women usually rub their wrists together when applying perfume. By rubbing the perfume, the top notes of the perfume are lost, so only the middle and base will smell, and the scent will remain on the skin shorter time.

5. Use perfume at the right time
The best time to apply fragrance is right after showering, while the skin is still slightly wet. The moisture will allow the scent to stay longer on the skin. In addition, the smell will be absorbed and there will be no danger of staining your favorite shirt upon contact with freshly applied perfume or body oil.
6. Keep the skin moist
Before applying perfume to the skin always moisturize. Dry skin tends to absorb a certain amount of fragrance, causing the scent to fade faster. When the skin is moisturized, the perfume lasts longer on the skin.
7. Keep the perfume in a good place
Exposure to heat and humidity destroys the fragrance molecules in the perfume, so avoid storing perfume bottles in bathroom. It is best to keep them in cool and dry parts of the house, for example on the top shelf of the cupboard.
8. Apply perfume at least twice a day
Skin is a living, breathing organ that cannot retain its odor indefinitely. Therefore, it is best to have s always carry a bottle of perfume with you, to refresh the scent throughout the day.
