 Fragrances are a vital aspect of personal hygiene but do not use fragrances alone. The mixture of smells will make it worse and can be an embarrassment at the workplace. So, avoid using this technique shower properly and use your favorite fragrance.

In order to make your fragrance last longer, you should know the art of spraying. Doing it in the wrong way will make your perfume fade away. You will like to spray your favorite fragrance all over just because you like it. But It can not be a good idea and a wastage of money too.

Applying perfume on hot points of the body is a good idea. Pulse points include wrists, inside of the elbow, hollows of knees, and neck. Avoid rubbing of perfume after applying because it can evaporate the notes quickly. The enzymes released can also modify the smell of perfume. Another idea to make your fragrance last longer is to spray the perfume on your hair and clothes.

  • Using deodorant instead of perfume

It is not a good idea to use  deodorant instead of perfume ,or to use both of them together it will not be a good idea. Perfumes and deodorants have different compositions. Do not use them as a substitute for one another. Mostly the deodorants have a strong smell but they can not make your scent last longer.

Ideally, deodorants help in avoiding perspiration, and fragrance makes you feel fresh all day long. Fragrance cannot fight perspiration. So use them both according to the occasion. Deodorant is a choice for use after gym but not at work. So follow the instructions accordingly.
