You spray your favourite perfume in the morning — and by noon, it's gone. Here are 10 proven techniques to make your fragrance last all day.
1. Moisturise Before You Spray
Hydrated skin holds fragrance far longer. Apply unscented moisturiser to pulse points before spraying.
2. Apply to Pulse Points
Inner wrists, base of throat, behind ears, inner elbows, behind knees — warmth activates and projects fragrance.
3. Don't Rub Your Wrists Together
Rubbing breaks down top notes. Spray and let it dry naturally.
4. Spray on Your Hair
Hair holds fragrance beautifully. Hold the bottle 20–30cm away and spray lightly.
5. Choose the Right Concentration
EDT lasts 3–5 hrs. EDP lasts 5–8 hrs. Extrait de Parfum lasts 8–12+ hours. All Vanaya fragrances are Extrait de Parfum.
6. Layer Your Fragrance
Apply to chest, behind knees, and hair — create a multi-dimensional scent bubble.
7. Store Correctly
Away from sunlight, heat, and bathroom humidity. Keep in a cool, dark place.
8. Apply Right After Shower
Warm, open pores post-shower absorb fragrance better.
9. Use a Fragrance Primer
A tiny amount of unscented Vaseline on pulse points before spraying doubles longevity.
10. Invest in Quality
Premium fragrance oils last longer than synthetic substitutes. Vanaya's Extrait de Parfums use quality ingredients that stay on skin all day.
