Fragrance General Information:
Fragrance is a mixture of essential oils and aroma compounds, known as Notes, diluted in a solvent typically ethanol, or a mix of water and ethanol used to give a unique scent as it evaporates over the lifespan of a fragrance. A fragrance is created carefully with knowledge of the evaporation process keeping in mind the skin chemistry of an average person.

As the notes unfold over the life span of a fragrance the immediate impressions are the Top Notes leading to deeper Middle Notes and Base Notes gradually appearing throughout the lifespan of the fragrance.

Individual Skin Chemistry will affect a fragrance’s scent and varies from individual to individual. Skin can be dry to oily, cool to warm, have different absorption rates, as well as excreting natural compounds in different amounts.

Note that some find their skin chemistry changes as they mature and a fragrance that worked for them before doesn’t seem to give the same results as it use to.

Different medical conditions along with the prescriptions used to treat them can affect a fragrance’s scent by altering the natural compounds excreted through the skin.

Products used for skin or hair care, any new cleaning products used on your skin or hair as well as for your clothing can affect a fragrance. Because your skin absorbs and excretes compounds use of other chemicals around the house or at work have the possibility of affecting a fragrance.

General Fragrance application suggestions:
Under applying a fragrance is better than over applying, consider those around you and the environment you will be in closed spaces, larger better ventilated areas or outdoors.

Our sense of smell affects us emotionally and can evoke certain emotional feelings, responses, and bring back pleasant or bad memories. Remember that others may have allergies or breathing issues that a fragrance can affect in a negative way as well.

A fragrance will be described and affect different people in different ways.

Applying your Fragrance:
A rule of thumb is you should enter a room before your fragrance and your fragrance should leave the room when you leave.

At first start sparingly when applying a fragrance allowing it go through its lifespan. Remember when trying a fragrance the scent of a fragrance will change over its lifespan and depending on your skin chemistry it may last for several hours or a day and the scent will change during this time.

Once you have worn your 212 Perfume and know the right amount to apply always apply the same amount every time, even if you feel it’s not enough. Our own since of smell may block a fragrance’s scent due to odor imprinting that occurs in the brain and the scent is masked or dulled and you will not realize you’re over applying.

You will also want to consider decreasing or increasing the amount applied depending on the activity or location where you will be. Less if you will be in a closed space such as a car, office or small room, more if you will be in larger better ventilated areas or outdoors.

Most will recommend that a fragrance be applied to the body’s pulse points which are spots that give off more body heat as blood vessels pass closest to the skin continually warming and releasing your fragrance. These include the crease of your arm, wrist, and back of your knee for lower body points, behind the ear and base of your throat as higher points on your body.

When and how you apply your 212 Perfume will affect when others will detect its scent. Experimentation and personnel preference is best, some prefer to apply there fragrance before dressing directly to there skin, some prefer applying it during or after dressing scenting there clothing, while others prefer to apply it to there hair or hairy areas of there body.

Applying a fragrance before dressing or higher up on the body will keep the scent close to you and only those that move in close can detect its scent. Appling a fragrance during or after dressing and lower on your body will allow it to rise and surround you throughout the day and venture out to those directly around you.

Applying a fragrance to your hair can make a lighter fragrance last longer or in some cases resolve some skin chemistry issues changing the evaporation rate with less contact on the skin and any natural compounds that may affect the scent.

If you apply a fragrance to your clothes or hair make sure to test a small less conspectus area to make sure there is not a bad reaction or change in scent due to chemicals in the fabric or residue from cleaning products or other products that may be used on the fabric or in your hair.

Lotion or Moisturizer can help with a Fragrance:
A lotion or moisturizer may help in altering a scent or with skin chemistry issues.

If you’re looking for a unique scent for yourself or because the fragrance you like is a commonly used one in your area.

If you have a skin chemistry issue where your skin absorbs or evaporates the fragrance’s solvent to quickly reducing its lifespan, alters the intended scent, or your natural skin compounds react badly with certain notes changing the scent or in some cases causing a sour smell.

A lotion or moisturizer may be able to help by acting as a barrier between your skin and fragrance changing evaporation rates, introducing a new or bolstering an existing note, or in keeping your natural skin compounds from affecting your fragrance.

In any case you can try applying a lotion or moisturizer to your skin first or mixing it with your fragrance before applying. You can try a lotion or moisturizer that is fragrance free, one from the same product line, or one with a similar or new note to enhance the fragrance such as Sandalwood, Coco or Shea butter.
