Fragrance Etiquette: Do’s & Don’ts of Wearing Perfume

At KDJ, we understand how fragrances can help to boost our mood and confidence. That being said, there are some important do’s and don’ts to consider in the world of fragrance to ensure you’re making the most out of your favourite scents. Keep on reading for a quick run through on fragrance etiquette:

Do’s

Apply to Clean Skin: The best time to apply fragrances to your skin is straight after the shower or once moisturised to lock in the scent for ultimate longevity.

Consider the Occasion: Opt for lighter, citrus and floral scents for the day time and more intense, warm scents for evenings or special events.

Layer Mindfully: A great way to layer scents is by incorporating scented hair and body oils. Be sure to choose products with similar notes to create a complementary blend.

Don’ts

Rub Wrists Together: Contrary to popular belief, rubbing your wrists together can alter the composition of the fragrance and decrease its wear time.

Apply to Clothing: Spray fragrances on to your clothing can damage certain fabrics so it is best to avoid this and apply to clean skin instead.

Mix Too Many Scents: Layering scents is a great way of experimenting with fragrances, but we recommend being wary of applying too many contrasting scents at the same time as this can have a less desirable effect.

Incorporate these do’s and don’ts into your fragrance routine to ensure an enjoyable fragrance experience for yourself and those around you. Shop our extensive range of KDJ scents today and indulge in the essence of luxury without the premium price tag.
