How to apply Perfume the right way?

✅ 1. Apply to Pulse Points

Pulse points are the warm areas of your body where blood vessels are closest to the skin. These natural diffusers help activate and release the scent throughout the day. For optimal fragrance diffusion, apply perfume to the following pulse points:

• Wrists
• Neck (sides and base)
• Behind the ears
• Inner elbows
• Behind the knees

These areas will help your scent project well and develop beautifully on you.

✅ 2. Spray on Clean, Moisturized Skin

To enhance the performance of your perfume, apply it right after a shower on clean, slightly damp skin. Moisturized skin holds fragrance better than dry skin. For a luxurious touch, try applying a fragrant oil like Musk Tahara Gold Attar before your spray perfume. This thick, musky oil will create a rich base layer, giving your fragrance extra depth and lasting power.

✅ 3. Don’t Rub Your Wrists Together

A common mistake people make when applying perfume is rubbing their wrists together. While it may seem like a good idea to “spread” the scent, this actually crushes the top notes of your fragrance and alters the overall scent profile. Instead, allow your perfume to air dry naturally. This preserves the delicate composition of the fragrance.

✅ 4. Spray from the Right Distance

When applying spray perfumes, it’s important to hold the bottle at the correct distance. Aim for about 10–15 cm from your skin. This distance ensures that the fragrance is evenly distributed without overwhelming a particular area. Too close and it might concentrate too heavily; too far and it might dissipate into the air.

✅ 5. Use the “Cloud” Technique for Long-Lasting, High Projection & Great Sillage

For those who want to make a lasting impression, try the “Cloud” Technique. After applying perfume to your pulse points (wrists, neck, behind the ears), spray your clothes in these areas:

• Shirt collars
• Shoulders (both right and left)
• Chest area
• Sleeves (near the shoulder or cuffs)

This technique helps to create a fragrance “cloud” around you, offering high projection (the ability for others to smell you) and sillage (the trail your scent leaves behind). Spraying perfume on clothes ensures that the fragrance lasts longer.

✅ 6. Reapply When Needed

Even the best perfumes can fade or become more subtle over time. The longevity of attars and spray perfumes will vary depending on factors like climate, skin type, and fragrance type. In hot or humid environments (such as India), it’s a good idea to carry a travel-sized atomizer or a convenient roll-on attar for reapplication. This will ensure that your scent stays fresh all day long.

💡 Extra Tips for Perfume Lovers

• Layering: Pair matching attars and perfumes from the same fragrance family to create a more complex, long-lasting scent profile. Try layering an Attar with an Eau de Parfum to intensify the fragrance and increase its longevity.
• Storage: Perfumes should be stored in a cool, dark place to preserve their quality. Avoid storing them in places with high humidity or direct sunlight, as this can alter their scent over time.
• Know Your Fragrance Type: Generally, Extrait de Parfum lasts longer than Eau de Parfum due to the higher concentration of fragrance oils. Attars lasts even longer as they are 100% concentrated oil-based fragrance and are known for their longevity, making them the perfect choice if you’re looking for a scent that lasts all day and into the evening.
