💡 How to Use (Application Tips)

To ensure your fragrance lasts longer and projects well, follow these steps:

1. Spray on Pulse Points: Apply the fragrance to warm areas of the body such as the wrists, behind the ears, and the base of the throat. The heat helps diffuse the scent.
2. Don't Rub: After spraying on your wrists, avoid rubbing them together. This breaks down the fragrance molecules and alters the top notes.
3. Layering: For better longevity, apply an unscented moisturizer to your skin before spraying the perfume. Hydrated skin holds scent better than dry skin.
4. Clothing: You can mist a small amount on your shirt or jacket for a scent that lingers on fabric (test on a small area first to avoid staining).
