Frequently asked questions
How many sprays of perfume should I use?
For most Eau de Parfums, 2–4 sprays is right: fewer for the office and hot weather, more for evenings, outdoors and winter. EDTs need about one more spray than EDPs, and attars need just 1–2 dabs.
Where should I spray perfume?
On pulse points and warm areas: the sides of the neck, the chest and the back of the neck. Spraying on clothes and scarves makes it last longer. Avoid rubbing your wrists together.
Why can't I smell my own perfume?
Olfactory fatigue: your nose stops noticing a constant smell within minutes. Others can still smell it, so don't keep re-spraying.
