Perfume Layering Guide

🌸 Perfume Layering Guide: How to Layer & Choose Your Perfect Scent

Elevate your fragrance game with the art of perfume layering. Whether you're wearing Eau de Parfum or alcohol-free perfume oils, combining scents allows you to create a signature fragrance that is uniquely yours.

💡 What Is Perfume Layering?

Perfume layering involves applying two or more fragrances together to create a custom scent profile. You can layer:

  • Eau de parfums
  • Perfume oils / attars
  • Body lotions or mists

The goal? A more complex, longer-lasting, and personalized scent.

🌿 How to Layer Perfumes – Step by Step

  1. Start with Hydrated Skin
    Apply an unscented lotion or moisturizer to help hold the scent longer.
  2. Use Perfume Oils as a Base
    Apply a perfume oil to pulse points (wrists, neck, inner elbows). Oils last longer and sit closer to the skin.
  3. Add an Eau de Parfum or Spray on Top
    Mist a complementary spray scent over the same areas or across your clothing for projection.
  4. Apply Strategically
    • Oil: Pulse points
    • Spray: Wrists, neck, chest, or hair
  5. Don't Rub – Let It Settle
    Let the fragrance dry naturally to preserve its top notes.
