Buy high quality perfumes and later the scents. I will pick a complimenting body wash and lotion for that day.
For example. Today I am wearing Jo Malone velvet rose and oud intense. For body wash and lotion I used ouai Melrose Place.
If I’m wearing a more citrusy scent, I do the same.
You could also get some good essential oils and drop them into unscented lotions.
You can also experiment with different mixes and create a unique personal scent.
Some cheap (in price) stuff probably will also work. Just experiment.
Get an oil base scent. Parfums are my go-to. Compliment it with a similar scent lotion if the parfum doesn’t have a lotion to go with it. Toilettes don’t last long. High end scents are mainly parfum (oil based) scents.
Thank you!
Wow. AP1 what a trash take.
Find a body oil you like, rub it into skin and spray those same areas. Also spraying the carrier spaces, wrist, neck, elbow etc.
Use vaseline
Take a small cotton ball (tear cotton ball to a quarter of its size), spray it a few times with your perfume, and put it in your bra between your breast. I do that on special occasions. Good perfume, as you know, is expensive!
OP are legit saying you want people to SMELL you after you’ve left the area?
You are already black and a woman and you are willing to risk having a complaint about wearing excessive perfume in the workplace crop up in your career journey?
Why?
AP1 is the miserable black woman in the office that I put all my energy into AVOIDING.
Constantly belittling and bullying black female colleagues under the guise of mentorship and “tough love”.
OP - if you let me know your favorite scent profiles, I’d be happy recommend some complementary oils or creams!
