How to Make Your Perfume Last Longer

How to Make Your Perfume Last Longer

Get more from every spray — here's how.

You’ve found a fragrance you love. It turns heads, gets compliments, and feels like you. Now let’s make it last.

At Mystiq Parfums, our scents are crafted for longevity. But with a few simple tips, you can get even more wear out of your signature scent — all day and into the night.

1. Moisturise Before Spraying

Perfume clings to hydrated skin. Apply an unscented moisturiser or a bit of Vaseline to your pulse points before spraying. Dry skin tends to soak up fragrance quickly, reducing its lifespan.

2. Target the Right Spots

Apply to your pulse points — neck, wrists, inner elbows, and behind your ears. These warm areas help diffuse the scent throughout the day.

3. Don’t Rub It In

Rubbing your wrists together breaks down the top notes of the fragrance. Spray and let it settle naturally.

4. Layer Your Fragrance

For a stronger, longer-lasting scent, layer products with similar notes. Try pairing your perfume with a matching scented lotion or body wash (coming soon at Mystiq).

5. Spray on Clothes — Carefully

Fragrance can linger longer on fabric than skin. Lightly mist your clothing from a distance. Just avoid delicate materials like silk.

6. Store It Right

Heat, light and humidity degrade perfume. Store your bottle in a cool, dark place (like your dresser drawer — not your bathroom).

7. Top Up with a Travel Spray

Keep a 10ml Mystiq travel spray with you. Perfect for a mid-day refresh or night out, without carrying the full bottle.


Final Thought
Fragrance is personal — but longevity doesn’t have to be a mystery. These tips, paired with Mystiq’s high-concentration formulas, mean you’ll stay unforgettable from the first spritz to the last.
