All about Perfumes!


All you want to know about smelling good ;)

Perfume is made from about 78% to 95% of specially denatured ethyl alcohol and a bit of essential oil.

The late 19th century was a time of advances in organic chemistry, and with it came the science of perfumes! By the 1960's ordinary people began to buy perfume in quantity!

What you need to know when applying perfumes:
Photobucket
When you apply perfumes layering is key!

TIP #1: When layering always use the same fragrance ;) So try using a perfume's body wash, lotion, and spray! This way the smell lingers all over the body!

TIP #2: Never dab the wrists with perfume and rub together!! This crushes the scent~ let the perfume dry on the skin!

TIP# 3: Dab a little perfume on pulse points such as the folds in the crook of your elbow and back of knees, wrist, neck and cleavage!
