This week: Tips and tricks you'll love

Want your perfume to last a little longer? Fragrance Expert and head of marketing at The Fragrance Shop, Iember Gordon, reveals some handy hacks on how we can make a couple of spritzes last all day long.

1. APPLY PERFUME RIGHT AFTER YOUR SHOWER

The best time to spray perfume on your skin is right after your shower. This is because moisture gives your scent something to hold on to, so spraying your signature scent on after your skin has been freshly washed boosts its staying power.

2. MOISTURISE SKIN BEFORE APPLICATION

For situations where you can't have a shower before going from desk to dancefloor, use an unscented moisturiser on your skin before you apply perfume. This will help lock the fragrance in better as it gives a moist skin impression. 3. SMEAR VASELINE ON PULSE POINTS BEFORE APPLYING

If you need some extra life out of your fragrance, rub a small amount of Vaseline onto your pulse points before application. The balm will act as an additional moisturising lock for the scent, helping it last even longer.

4. SPRAY FRAGRANCE ONTO YOUR HAIRBRUSH Sometimes the scent of hair products can overpower the scent of your fragrance. Try spraying your favourite fragrance on your hairbrush and brush it through dry hair. Don't spritz directly onto your hair, as the alcohol can cause damage to your locks.

5. LINE YOUR DRAWERS OR WARDROBE WITH PERFUME TO SUBTLY SCENT CLOTHING

If you have a signature scent, you can get your clothing to smell like it as well. Line your drawers with tissue paper that has been spritzed a few times and allow the scent to permeate the fabrics.
