How to Apply Perfume Properly | Alice & Bruce Usage Guide

How to Use Your Alice and Bruce Perfume

Luxury fragrances perform best when applied correctly. A few simple steps can make your perfume last longer, smell richer, and leave a better impression throughout the day.

Step 1 — Apply on Pulse Points

Spray perfume on warm areas of the body where blood flow is higher. These spots help diffuse the fragrance naturally.

Best Areas to Apply

  • Neck

  • Behind ears

  • Wrists

  • Inner elbows

  • Chest

  • Behind knees (for long-lasting projection)

Step 2 — Spray From the Right Distance

Hold the bottle around 5–7 inches away from your skin and spray lightly.

Ideal Number of Sprays

Occasion Recommended Sprays
Office / Daily Wear 2–3
Date Night 3–5
Party / Events 5–7
Summer Heat 2–3
Winter / Evening 4–6

Step 3 — Do NOT Rub the Perfume

After spraying on wrists, avoid rubbing them together.

Rubbing breaks fragrance molecules and reduces the longevity and smoothness of the scent.

✅ Let it dry naturally for best performance.

Step 4 — Moisturized Skin = Longer Lasting

Perfume lasts longer on hydrated skin.

Before applying:

  • Use an unscented moisturizer

  • Or apply a little petroleum jelly on pulse points

This helps lock the fragrance into your skin for hours.

Step 5 — Apply on Clothes Carefully

You can lightly spray on:

  • Shirt collars

  • Jacket lining

  • Scarves

But avoid spraying directly on:

  • Silk

  • White fabrics

  • Jewelry

Some perfume oils may stain delicate fabrics.

Pro Tips for Maximum Performance

For Better Projection

Spray once on chest and once behind neck.

For Long Office Wear

Apply on clothes + skin together.

For Dates & Close Encounters

Focus on neck and behind ears.

For Hot Weather

Use fewer sprays. Heat amplifies fragrance.

For Cold Weather

Use extra sprays since fragrances fade slower.

Storage Guide

To preserve your perfume quality:

✅ Store in a cool, dry place
✅ Keep away from direct sunlight
✅ Keep bottle tightly closed
❌ Avoid bathroom humidity
❌ Avoid leaving inside cars

Fragrance Layering Tips

You can make your scent smell even more premium by layering with:

  • Unscented moisturizer

  • Matching deodorant

  • Mild body wash

This creates a cleaner and longer-lasting scent trail.

How Long Does Perfume Usually Last?

Perfume Type Approx Duration
Fresh / Aqua Fragrances 4–6 Hours
Woody / Strong Fragrances 6–10 Hours
Evening / Intense Perfumes 8–12 Hours

Skin type, weather, and environment also affect longevity.

Quick Mistakes to Avoid

❌ Over spraying indoors
❌ Rubbing wrists together
❌ Spraying immediately after sweating
❌ Keeping perfume in sunlight
❌ Applying on very dry skin
