From Morning Meetings to Majlis: How to Make Your Fragrance Last All Day

The heat of the UAE can be a challenge for even the finest perfumes. Have you ever noticed your scent fading by lunchtime? The secret isn’t just in the bottle—it’s in the application.

1. Hydrate First: Perfume lasts longer on moisturized skin. Apply an unscented lotion before spraying.
2. Pulse Points: Focus on your wrists, neck, and—a local secret—the back of your knees.
3. Don’t Rub: Rubbing your wrists together breaks down the delicate molecules of the Oud. Let it air dry.
4. Layering: Start with an Oud oil base and top it with an OudExpress spray to create a multi-dimensional scent trail (sillage) that follows you everywhere.

Key Takeaway: With the right technique, your OudExpress perfume can easily last 12+ hours.
