YOUR PERFUME DOESN’T SMELL THE SAME AS WHEN YOU BOUGHT IT!
Did you know that your perfumes change fragrances with time? What you first breathe in is the top notes, which slowly grows into its heart note and then the base note that stays the longest. Next time you buy a scent, get to know all the three levels.
MOISTURISE FIRST, MAKE IT SMELL NICE LATER

NEVER GO FOR THE FIRST IMPRESSION
Next time you go for a fragrance shopping spree, don’t inhale the perfume the second it’s sprayed on your wrist. Wait for a few seconds and then smell it as the first set of accords turn into vapor easily and isn’t the main flavor that decides the smell.

FRAGRANCES CAN BE APHRODISIAC!
Just like chocolates, vanilla, a nice candle-lit room, and stars beyond, fragrances can be a great aphrodisiac. It can turn on your partner and intoxicate seduction easily, that’s why ladies are asked to spray the perfume where they wish to be kissed!
