Sid’s Tips

1. USE PETROLEUM JELLY For dry skin, apply a little petroleum jelly to the pulse point before spraying the fragrance. This enables your fragrance to last longer.

2. DISTANCE When spraying hold the bottle 5-7 inches away from the skin. By doing this, you prevent larger droplets from falling on the skin.

3. CHOOSING THE CORRECT AMOUNT Check the perfume concentration of your fragrance. A good suggestion is if you wear Eau De Toilette no more than three sprays and with Eau De Parfum or Parfum one or two sprays is enough.

4. FRAGRANCE WITHOUT SPRAY If your bottle does not have a spray you can use the stopper of the bottle to apply the perfume on the skin.

5. PULSE POINTS Apply fragrance to pulse points( wrists, behind ears, neck, and behold bd knees. As Coco Chanel said “ Apply perfume where you want to be kissed” and light. Some winter and summer fragrances will feature overt citrus notes.
