18. Change the way you wear your perfume.
If you’re just wearing a body spray, all bets are off. But what about those higher-quality eau de parfums you’ve invested in? Spritzing a cloud into the air and walking through it won’t make it last all day and night.
Of course we know that perfume should be applied to pulse points, but that’s not just our wrists. Dab fragrance behind your ears, knees, and inside elbows. If it’s a subtler fragrance (read: not a heavy, highly-concentrated floral) put one dab in your navel and spritz once down your back. For your hair, don’t bother spraying it directly on strands. Not only may it not be distributed evenly, but the alcohol can be drying. Instead, spritz the perfume on your brush and comb.
