Q. Why do some fragrances seem to last much longer than others?

A. People with oily skin usually find their fragrance last longer than people with dry skin because an oily skin person has more natural moisture to hold in the fragrance. Amount of acidity in our skin also varies slightly from person to person. Our individual levels of PH will determine how each ingredient in a fragrance will react.

Q. How can I make my scent last longer?

A. Because of differences in our skin (oily or dry) and in our PH levels a fragrance may lasts longer on some people than on others. To achieve a longer effect, we suggest you try to layering your fragrances. Using the fragrance bath gel, then the moisturizer or powder, and then the Eau de Parfum, Eau de Toilette or Eau de Cologne, will usually have a longer lasting effect. Also, apply your fragrance low on the body, as well as behind your ears and on your neck, so that the scent rises and you won’t lose it as quickly. A light spray on the hair can last all day.

Q. What is the difference between a splash and a spray?

A. There is absolutely no difference in the fragrance. The difference is in the method of application only. However, a spray bottle, being sealed all the time, may actually have a longer shelf life. Making the decision between spray and splash is entirely a matter of personal preference.

Q. Why do some men wear Cologne, and others prefer to wear After Shave?

A. After Shave Lotion will usually sting as well as help close the pores after shaving. After Shave Balm is actually soothing to the skin. After Shave Gel also soothes the skin, but cools the skin as well and relieves razor burn.

Q. What do fragrance notes refer to?

A. Fragrances are comprised of many different scents, these scents are called "notes."

Top notes are very light and last just a few minutes (5-10 minutes). Middle notes become apparent in about 15 minutes after application. These can last up to an hour or more. Bottom notes are the heavier ingredients. These last the longest, usually for several hours.

Q. How can I keep my fragrance from going bad?

A. Keep all fragrances in a cool, dry area, and away from windows as sunlight can unbalance the various ingredients. An opened bottle should be kept in its box to insure a longer shelf life.
