that suits them, not their friends or families. Perfumes should be applied to
the pulse points such as the folds in the crook of your elbow and back of
knees, wrist, neck and cleavage. Do not rub your wrist together because it
crushes the smell. Spraying the perfume in the air is also very good if you
walk straight into the perfume because it helps to diffuse perfume in your
body. Do not simply apply to the neck always work up the body as the scent
rises.
