One of the best compliments you can be given is You smell so good! Right? Fragrances provoke a thousand and one sensations in us and, let's be honest, we love the fact of intoxicating everyone around us.

That is why today we want to give you a series of tips so you know where to apply the Fragrance so it lasts longer, and so, nothing can resist you.

How to apply Fragrance so it lasts longer

Although as we will see later, the skin pH is a determining factor in the duration of a Fragrance and depending on your level you should apply one type of Fragrance or another, these tips are essential to make your Fragrance last longer overall.

1. ALWAYS AFTER THE SHOWER

With clean skin the scent will fix better, even more if you shower with hot water, since the pores will open and they will absorb the scent much more.

2. HYDRATE YOUR SKIN

The Fragrance will last much longer if applied on a well-hydrated body. So the best thing is to put on a little moisturizing cream before applying the Fragrance.

That is, it should be a cream with neutral smell so that an explosive aromatic cocktail does not occur.

3. FIND YOUR PULSES

The zones to apply Fragrance ideal are the pulse points. And which ones are these?

Very simple, all those where you feel your pulses; for example behind the ears, on the wrists, on the inner part of the elbows, on the clavicles o behind the knees.

This is because in these areas the body temperature is higher and the Fragrance evaporates more slowly.

4. AT A CERTAIN DISTANCE

Do not place the dispenser too close to the skin since it is totally counterproductive. The best is to place it about 10 centimeters.

In this way, the aroma will be distributed delicately and the Fragrance will be at its maximum performance, smelling wonderful.

5. DO NOT BATHE IN FRAGRANCE

Although we already know that with the prices we have at divain it doesn't do you much good to spend and spend bottles of Fragrance... it is not good at all to "bathe" yourself in it every time you apply it.

And indeed, the Fragrance becomes imperceptible to your own sense of smell a few minutes after applying it, since you get used to it. But that does not mean you lack it, everyone around you will be able to smell it. That said, you can do occasional touch-ups to not lose the intensity of the aroma because a Fragrance usually lasts an average of 6 hours.

Surely if you follow these tips on how to apply Fragrance, you will make it last longer on your skin. And if you want the scent to be "eternal" apply it also on your clothes, although be careful that they are not very delicate so that stains that are difficult to remove later do not occur. Ah! And we do not recommend at all that you apply it on your hair, as it dries it out a lot.

Of course, there are certain factors that influence the longevity of the aromas such as sweating, eating habits or skin pH. Let's take a closer look at how this last factor affects making our favorite Fragrances last much longer.


Fragrance duration according to your skin's pH

Keep in mind that skin pH is closely related to the duration of the Fragrance on the skin. Let's look at the different skin types and which types of Fragrance (according to olfactory family and intensity) most recommended for each of them.

Acidic skin

Acidic skin is the one that has the lower pH, with a value between 10 and 15. On these skins, the concentration of acids naturally generated by the body (necessary for its well-being) is much higher than normal; therefore, they are much drier and tend to suffer from redness.

The fixation of aromas is worse on dry skin, so if you have this type of skin and want the Fragrances to last longer on it, you should opt for sweeter olfactory families, like that of vanilla, that of musk or the woody.

Neutral skin

With a pH between 16 and 20, the neutral skins are the most balanced and on which all types of Fragrances last longer.

Alkaline skin

Alkaline skins are characterized by their smoothness and hydration. It is the complete opposite of acidic skin, as it is the skin with the highest level of pH (21 or more).

An alkaline skin intensifies aromas, so if you have this type, it is not advisable to use Fragrances that are too intense, unless you want to intoxicate (in the bad sense of the word) everyone around you.

If you have this type, we recommend fresh Fragrances, like those of the aquatic olfactory family, the chypre olfactory family or the citrus olfactory family.


We hope that now that you know where to apply the Fragrance to make it last longer, you get the most out of your fragrances and that they accompany you throughout the day, making it more bearable. And it's that with a good Fragrance, everything is better!
