How to make your perfume last longer
Arabian perfumes like Lattafa are known for their good longevity, but here are some tricks to get even more out of your perfume:
Application tips:
- Spray on pulse points (wrists, neck, behind ears)
- Apply immediately after showering on damp skin
- Create a "scent cloud" and walk through it
- Spray a little in your hair (but not too much – alcohol can dry it out)
- Use an unscented body lotion first as a base
Storage tips:
- Keep away from direct sunlight
- Store in original box
- Avoid temperature fluctuations
- Keep the lid on when not in use
