“You smell amazing!” is perhaps one of the best compliments you can get. But making your way through a day while maintaining your fragrance could be difficult. You can’t simply go on spraying perfumes either because, hey, you know how expensive a good fragrance can be!
But what if we told you that we have a perfect solution and tips to help you have your scent on you the whole day? Dossier nurtures the vision of premium fragrances that anyone can afford and use. We are talking about luxurious fragrances at the best price possible for you! With that said, read along to catch a whiff of our expert tips.
Prep Up Your Skin Before Applying
A little preparation goes a long way to make your fragrance last. So, prepare your skin with these tips so it can carry the fragrance throughout the day:
- Apply immediately after a shower, especially a hot one. Towel dry yourself before spraying your favorite fragrance on you. The heat and the steam will help diffuse the scent better.
- Always hydrate your skin before application. Hydrated skin helps carry fragrances better. So, before you pick up your Dossier Perfume, go for body lotion, oil, or any hydrating lotion to layer your fragrances.
Apply On Specific Points
This one is the most advised tip that all experts will tell you — instead of going all gangsta on your perfume, spray it on specific points to make it last the longest. Include all your pulse points — neck, wrists, inner elbows, back of the knee, and over your chest. Dossier perfumes are completely vegan and paraben and cruelty-free, so apply them without worry.
Post-Application Steps
Simply applying is not enough; make sure to complete the follow-up. Here are a few things that experts ask you to follow:
- Dab instead of rubbing. The usual notion of rubbing the perfume with the wrists immediately after applying is incorrect. Experts shake their heads in strong disapproval here. Rubbing scents like that wear off the longevity of your perfume. Instead, you can dab it lightly.
- After your skin, move on to your clothes. Yes, spraying on clothes will help carry the fragrance around all day, as fabrics are good carriers of perfumes.
Know Your Fragrances Better
There is a lot more to your fragrances than simply a particular scent. Did you know that three types of notes in your perfume make it what it is? Take a look:
- Top notes: lasts for the first 5-15 minutes.
- Middle notes: lasts for the next 30-60 minutes.
- Base notes: lasts the duration of wear.
So, to get your desired fragrance, you need to know what your bases are. Say you are looking for something exotic like saffron with hints of amber and cedarwood, you can opt for Dossier’s Amber Saffron, inspired by baccarat rouge 540 dupe.
Also, your fragrance will last based on the type of concentration you go for. Look out for labels such as EDP (eau de parfum), EDT (eau de toilette), or EDC (eau de cologne). While EDC has the least concentration of fragrance and can last about 2-3 hours, EDP has the highest fragrance and can last all day.
