Perfume
People
seem to have very personal opinions about perfume. Some
people love it, some are put off by it, but I think
we can safely say, most of us have an opinion/feeling
about it. I remember first wearing perfumes in my early
20's. The first perfumes I wore were Chanel #5 and Chantilly.
My preferences tend to run to the fresh and lightly
flowery rather than overwhelming, heavy type perfumes.
I will not leave the house to even walk the dogs without
some sort of cologne or perfume applied lightly. The
Design perfume is classified as a refreshing, woody,
arid fragrance. This feminine scent possesses a blend
of fresh floral jasmine, scents of sandalwood &
vanilla. The Design perfume is recommended for daytime.
Perfume is the accessory that goes with any outfit,
but like any cosmetic, it has to be used properly to
get the right effect.
Don't
apply the Design perfume fragrance directly from the
bottle with your fingers. Oil from your skin will enter
the bottle and adversely affect the fragrance. Use an
atomizer or apply fragrance to a cotton ball and then
apply to your skin. When applying fragrance, spray fragrance
from the ankles up. Remember, fragrance always rises!
Also remember the golden rule of perfume - spray sparingly.
You can always add more, but if you go overboard and
spray too much a shower is just about the only thing
that will get rid of it. Try to keep the Design perfume
off your clothing. Apply the perfume only on the skin
where it has a chance to develop and mellow. Also, bear
in mind that perfume can stain some delicate fabrics,
especially silk, so it's best to apply your perfume
before you dress.
Don't
buy a fragrance just because it smells good on a friend.
A fragrance is as individual as you are and will smell
differently as it reacts with your own chemistry. When
shopping for a fragrance try not to sample more than
three fragrances at a time, after that your nose can
no longer distinguish the scents. Try smelling the coffee
beans that are on the fragrance counter in most department
stores between samplings. The beans help to "cleanse
the palate" and will allow you to try more perfumes
(that's what they're there for). Protect the Design
perfume from heat and light to prolong its scent --
store it in the bathroom cupboard, not on the counter
with your blow dryer and curling iron. May I suggest
that you go lightly in your application of the Design
perfume. Better to have people walk by you and almost
pick up your scent than get knocked out by it. It really
isn't considerate to wear your perfume or cologne in
large amounts, and can be quite off-putting to many
people. So, to be on the safe side, go light! Someone
can always get a little closer if appropriate. I absolutely
love the Design perfume. It is one of two or three perfumes
I wear all the time, and never tire of. I generally
wear the perfume or cologne on top of the matching lotion.
I sometimes have allergies to it, so when that occurs,
I skip the lotion and just use the spray cologne where
it seems to cause the least problems (for instance the
wrists, or behind my ears).
