7 New Ways to Wear PerfumeLayering fragrances may sound complicated, but it's easier than you think -- if you know how to do it. Here are the tips that'll teach you how to wear perfume the new way |
Understand your fragrance family When choosing bath and body products to layer with your fragrance, there's one piece of advice that trumps all others: Choose products in the same fragrance family. "If you wear a gourmand scent, choose a gourmand body lotion and shower gel," says Wright. "And the same goes with citrus or floral."
To make things easy, you can always buy the ancillary products that go along with your favorite fragrance. We love Kiehl's Aromatic Blends in Nashi Blossom & Pink Grapefruit, $75, which has a matching body lotion and body cleanser. The fragrances are each slightly different, but they all use the Japanese Nashi Blossom. Using all three will give you a more intense and longer lasting fragrance.

Some very helpful hints here; I've been layering scents for a long time.

I've always layered, it's the best way to keep your scent all day long. Soap, lotion, cologne, and mist threw out the day!

Lotions with a body mist is great for layering but not too heavy either.

I always read you shouldn't spray perfume on your hair, especially if you perm or color it!
