The best places to spray perfume are on your pulse points-areas where the blood vessels are close to the skin and emit heat, helping the fragrance to develop and last longer. These include:

• Wrists
• Inner elbows
• Neck (especially the base of the throat)
• Behind the ears
• Behind the knees
• Chest and décolletage (if exposed)

These spots allow the scent to warm and project well throughout the day

. Additional tips and alternative areas include:

• Hair: Spraying lightly on hair or on a hairbrush can help the scent linger, but avoid perfumes with high alcohol content to prevent drying out hair

• Inside the navel and shoulder blades can also be effective for longevity and subtlety

• Avoid rubbing the perfume after spraying, as this can break down the fragrance molecules and reduce longevity

• Be cautious about spraying perfume on clothing, especially delicate fabrics like silk or wool, as it can stain or discolor them. If spraying on clothes, do so from a distance and preferably on the inside of the fabric

• Avoid spraying on the face or areas exposed to strong sun, as perfume can increase UV damage risk

For best results, hold the bottle about 3 to 6 inches from the skin and apply 2 to 4 sprays depending on fragrance intensity and desired strength

. Moisturizing skin before application can also help the scent last longer

. In summary, focus on pulse points such as wrists, neck, behind ears, inner elbows, and behind knees for optimal scent projection and longevity, with optional light sprays on hair and chest if desired
