When it comes to perfumes/fragrances in general, how often are you topping up?

I want to be smelling nice but I feel like I 'pinch' my perfumes as I only top up a few times a year.

Also, please share your fave scents, bonus points if you have any tips for making your fave scents last longer throughout the day😊✨

there’s certain points to put your perfume like behind the ear for instance and i’ve also seen people mix their scents with vaseline which is supposed to make it last longer x

oh yeah, I've heard of the vaseline one before, always forget 😂

I only put it behind the nape of my neck, behind my ears, and on one wrist and rub it against the other. So my perfume oil lasts a long while!!

Topping up as in buying a new one? I don’t. I use my favs into it runs out, but I get gifted ones throughout the year say for Mday Bday and Xmas but sometimes I give them away coz I don’t like the scent, I have 3-4 that I have at one go but I use until I run out. These days I’m using essential oil blends in rollers that replicate big brands but less alcohol-y, or pheromone perfumes. W the rollers I swipe behind each ear and on my wrist then rub my wrists together and hubby can still smell it on me when we snuggle at night.

I almost never buy full bottles, I love buying samples from sites like Scent Split or Lucky Scent. If I absolutely love it and need it in my life I’ll ask for it for Christmas or just keep buying samples if it’s crazy expensive lol. But I rotate through so many it doesn’t make sense to buy a full bottle right now

I have Scentbird. It’s $8 a month and they send you a month supply of your favs. You pick out what they send you.

I’ve heard that a gel primer can keep the sent lasting for hours haven’t tested it out but I saw it on ig reels, someone please confirm this 😀

Avatar

oh that's pretty good. The samples I get offered are only when I buy a full size perfume & it's tiny, only a few squirts😬

Ooo gotta check if the UK offers similar.

oh really? I'll look into that

you know what? I've heard about Arabic fragrances, might have to give them a go.

I buy perfume once a year! I wear black opium and always buy it with my boots points on Black Friday usually.

Avatar

I only buy perfume once every few years tbh!

Avatar

I LOVE Black Opium 😍always get compliments. I should do that too yano. I use my Boots points up on small items sometimes 😬🤦🏾‍♀️

Avatar

I’ve never paid for it with money, always points. Feels like I’ve cheated the system 😂

Avatar

tbh, Boots points system is one of the best 👌🏾✨

I actually buy them from my local market she makes and labels them herself. In Aus there’s a popular brand Asedos have a look and see if they deliver to you otherwise Google one that does maybe.
