How to apply a luxury perfume

Adapt perfume application to its format, your comfort and the setting, using a measured approach and following the manufacturer’s precautions.

Match the gesture to the product you own

A spray, an extract intended for dabbing and a roll-on bottle do not work in exactly the same way. Read the manufacturer’s directions before deciding on quantity and application area. Begin with restraint so that you can assess the result without immediately layering several different scented gestures together.

Let fragrance fit the setting around you

Close proximity in an office, at a meal or on public transport calls for an appropriate scent presence. Avoid eyes and mucous membranes and follow the precautions on your product. If you also use a scented body product, consider the whole routine before adding another spray simply through habit.
