You may have learned to rub your perfumed wrists together from your grandmother, mother, or old movies. As glamorous as it looks, don’t.
You should avoid spritzing and rubbing for two reasons. First, rubbing your wrists together can dull top notes (or the scents you smell in the first five minutes of applying perfume). Secondly, it mixes the perfume vigorously with your natural oils, which can change the way it smells. Let the scent soak into your skin instead, or lightly dab your wrists together or dab your wrists to other pulse points. Just don’t rub. Don’t do it. It ruins your perfume and is the best guarantee NOT to let your perfume stay for long. Spray it on the pulse points of your choice, and wait for it to dry before putting on your clothes.
