Fragrance oils work best when applied to your pulse points β the warm areas of your body that naturally help diffuse and project the scent. These spots release gentle heat, which allows your fragrance to bloom throughout the day.
β Best Pulse Points to Apply Oils:
-
Ears β behind or just below the earlobes for a subtle aura.
-
Neck β both sides of the neck keep your scent close and noticeable.
-
Inside Elbows β warmth here helps your fragrance last longer.
-
Wrists β classic placement, but remember: dab, donβt rub.
β¨ Pro Tip: Oils cling best to hydrated skin. Apply after moisturizing or pair with matching lotion or shea butter for an even longer-lasting effect.
How to Apply Oils (Step-by-Step Guide)
1οΈβ£ Prep Your Skin
Start with clean, moisturized skin. Hydrated skin helps fragrance oils cling longer and project better.
2οΈβ£ Choose Your Pulse Points
Apply to warm areas of the body like behind the ears, neck, inside elbows, and wrists. These spots help the fragrance diffuse naturally.
3οΈβ£ Dab, Donβt Rub
Use the rollerball or your finger to gently dab the oil on. Avoid rubbing wrists together β it breaks down the fragrance molecules and shortens wear time.
4οΈβ£ Layer for Longevity
Pair your oil with a matching lotion, body butter, or spray. Layering locks in the scent and extends its life.
5οΈβ£ Let It Settle
Give the fragrance a few minutes to warm with your skin before heading out β thatβs when the true scent profile shines.
β¨ Extra Tip: For all-day scent, try a light re-application midday on one or two pulse points. A little goes a long way.
