How to layer fragrance oils with perfume?

Layering fragrance oils with perfume can create a unique and personalized scent experience.

Understanding the Basics

• Oil vs. Perfume: Fragrance oils are typically more concentrated and long-lasting than perfumes.
• Application: Oils are best applied to pulse points, where the skin is warm and the scent will be amplified. Perfumes can be sprayed on pulse points or clothing.

Layering Techniques

• Base Layer: Start with a scented body lotion or oil as a base. This hydrates your skin and provides a foundation for the fragrance.
• Oil Infusion: Apply your fragrance oil to pulse points like wrists, neck, and behind ears. Let the oil absorb for a few minutes.
• Perfume Finish: Spray your chosen perfume over the oil. The perfume will complement the oil's scent while adding complexity and longevity.

Tips for Successful Layering

• Less is More: Start with small amounts of both oil and perfume to avoid overpowering the scent.
• Complementary Scents: Choose fragrance oil and perfume with complementary notes.
• Experiment: Don't be afraid to experiment with different combinations.
