How to Make Your Perfume Oil Last All Day: Expert Tips from SCNT

Introduction

Nothing is more frustrating than applying a beautiful perfume oil only to have it fade within hours. At SCNT, we specialize in long-lasting, vegan, alcohol-free perfume oils inspired by designer fragrances. In this guide, we’ll share expert tips to make your SCNT perfume oil last all day, so your favorite scent stays with you from morning to night.


1️⃣ Apply to Pulse Points

Perfume oils last longer when applied to warm areas of your body, known as pulse points. These areas naturally radiate heat, which helps diffuse the fragrance. Common pulse points include:

Wrists

Neck

Behind ears

Inner elbows

Behind knees

💡 Tip: Dab lightly and avoid rubbing wrists together — friction can break down the fragrance molecules.


2️⃣ Layer Your Scents

Layering is a fragrance hack that enhances longevity and creates a unique signature scent:

Start with a neutral body lotion or scented moisturizer

Apply your body oil wait 5 minutes then

Apply your SCNT perfume oil

  • Optional: add a matching scented oil from the same collection to reinforce the fragrance

Example: Pair Tonka Oud with Rich Woods for a warm, long-lasting aroma.


3️⃣ Don’t Forget Hair & Clothing

Hair retains scent longer than skin. Lightly dab a small amount of perfume oil on hair ends.

To keep your clothes safe from stains, start by applying a generous amount of perfume oil to your wrists and pulse points. Then, lightly dab a small amount on your outfit. Repeat a few times for a fragrance that lasts all day.


4️⃣ Store Perfume Oils Properly

The way you store your fragrance affects its longevity:

Keep bottles tightly closed

Store in a cool, dark place away from sunlight and heat

Avoid storing in bathrooms, where humidity can break down the oils

💡 SCNT Tip: Proper storage preserves the scent and ensures your oils smell fresh every time.
