Wearing perfume for me is an experience, one that makes me feel nice, flirty, and sexy sometimes or clean.
I start every morning by picking my perfume for the day and sometimes just by doing that it’s set my mood for the entire day.
There is nothing like a beautiful scent to help me feel put together, clean, and elegant.
Choosing the right perfume has the power to make you feel confident, happy, and attractive.
It is amazing how one small act can change your entire mood.
Yet, some people skip wearing perfume because they don’t know how to choose the right scent or how to apply it correctly.
In this blog post, I’ll discuss why wearing perfume is important, how to choose the perfect fragrance for you, how to apply it in the most effective way, and where to stow it.

Here are some ideas to get you started:
1) Pick out 3-5 samples of perfumes that interest you. When testing perfumes, do not spray them directly onto your skin. Instead, spray them onto a piece of paper and walk around with the paper for a few minutes. This will give the perfume time to mix with your body chemistry and develop its true scent. After a few minutes, smell the paper again and see which scent appeals to you the most. This is a great way to narrow down your choices without having to commit to a full-sized bottle right away.

2) Find a place in your home where you can keep all of your perfume bottles together.
This could be a tray on your dresser or a shelf in your closet.
Having all your bottles in one place will help you grab the one you want quickly and easily when getting ready in the morning or heading out for a night on the town.
3) Spritz on your perfume whenever you need a pick-me-up during the day. A quick spritz can help boost your mood and energy level when flagging in the afternoon or before heading out for an evening event.
4) Invest in quality over quantity when it comes to perfume. When it comes to perfume, it’s better to invest in one or two high-quality bottles rather than buying multiple cheap ones. Cheap perfumes usually fade quickly and leave behind an unpleasant smell.
On the other hand, quality perfumes may cost more initially, but they last longer and smell better in the long run.
At first, I was a bit torn about this statement as it may have been true in the past.
However, nowadays, there are numerous gorgeous perfumes available at a reasonable price.
5) Layer your fragrance for maximum impact by using complementary products such as lotion, shower gel, or body oil in the same scent as your perfume. Layering enhances the longevity of the fragrance so that it lasts longer on your skin throughout the day.
6) Be careful not to overspray when applying perfume! Two to three spritzes should be enough to provide a subtle scent that lingers without being overwhelming or obnoxious to those around you.
If you’re looking to apply perfume correctly, here are some helpful tips.
7) Store your perfume correctly to ensure that it keeps its potency and fragrance over time, store your fragrance correctly by keeping it in a dark and cool place away from direct sunlight or heat—a perfect spot would be inside your closet on the side of the dresser drawer or tray is also a good option.
8) Keep your perfume out of the bathroom because of the humidity which can damage perfume over time.
9. When traveling with perfume, it is advisable to keep it in your carry-on luggage instead of checked luggage. This is because the perfume bottle could potentially break and leak onto your clothes if stored in checked luggage.
