Perfumes consist of different notes and to understand best, you can take a few sprays on your wrist, and rub the wrists against each other to accelerate the dry down of the perfume and quickly evaluate the top, middle and base notes.This should be done only to understand the perfume in a short span of time. When wearing your favourite perfume, you should never rub the wrists after application and allow the perfume to evolve at its on pace.How to wearPerfumes can be worn on your pulse points/skin or clothes. Applying perfumes on your clothes help in better absorption of the perfume, thus helping it to last longer.If you are wearing the perfume on your skin, you should ideally wear on your pulse points. Our pulse points are behind the ears, collar bone, inside of the wrists, inside of the elbows, shoulders, naval, behind the knees and ankles.
