How to Make Your Fragrance Last All Day with Perfume Oils
There’s nothing more satisfying than catching a whiff of your favourite scent throughout the day. Yet, with traditional perfumes, the fragrance often fades before lunch.
The good news? Perfume oils, like those crafted by NÉIA, offer a solution with their highly concentrated, long-lasting formulas. In this guide, we’ll share tips on how to apply and care for your perfume oils to ensure they last all day.
Why Perfume Oils Last Longer
The secret to perfume oils lies in their high concentration. Unlike traditional perfumes, which use alcohol as a carrier (causing the scent to evaporate quickly), perfume oils adhere directly to the skin, releasing their aroma slowly throughout the day.
5 Tips for Making Your Fragrance Last All Day
1. Apply to Pulse Points
Pulse points are areas where the blood flows close to the skin, creating warmth that helps diffuse the fragrance. Focus on these areas:
- Wrists
- Neck
- Behind the ears
- Inner elbows
For maximum longevity, dab a small amount of perfume oil on each pulse point.
2. Moisturise First
Perfume oils last longer on hydrated skin. Before applying your fragrance, use an unscented moisturiser or lotion to create a smooth, hydrated base. This helps lock in the scent and enhances its staying power.
3. Don’t Rub Your Wrists
Rubbing your wrists together after applying perfume oil can break down the fragrance molecules, altering the scent and reducing its longevity. Instead, gently pat the oil onto your skin.
4. Layer Your Fragrances
For a more complex, long-lasting scent, try layering different perfume oils. Start with a base fragrance like Gold Oud, then add a lighter scent like Blanc for a fresh twist.
Learn more about layering in our How to Layer Perfume Oils guide.
5. Apply to Hair and Clothing
Perfume oils can be lightly applied to your hair and clothing for an extended scent experience. Be cautious, though—test a small area of fabric first to ensure there’s no staining.
