Why did we stop smelling our own perfume?

Most of the time, after applying perfume, you stop smelling it within a few minutes, giving the impression that you are not wearing anything. You try to fix this immediately, but mistakenly, by applying more perfume, you end up smelling too much and, probably, you will end up not smelling it anyway. Smell, our most primitive sense But what is the reason why you almost never smell your own perfume? Smell is the most primitive sense we possess. The most amazing thing is that your olfactory heritage, which has been accumulating unconsciously over the years, has the ability to evoke images and sensations when perceiving a certain aroma, even if many years have passed since the first time you perceived it. The problem with perfumes is that the sense of smell gets tired of perceiving the same smell over and over again. When you constantly perceive the same aromas, your brain filters out scents and the olfactory memory does not remember the usual aromas. A perfume for every occasion That is why it is recommended that both women and men have at least three perfumes: one for everyday use; another for weekends; and a final scent that we will choose for special occasions. This trick is perfect for preventing your nose from quickly getting used to a particular smell. This way, it won't get bored of them and, by detecting several smells continuously, it will always detect new notes, not giving it time to filter them out as 'regular aromas' and get tired. In short, it's about tricking your sense of smell. There are tricks to make the scent stay on your skin for longer and, especially if it is fresher, to make it last longer. For example, when you get out of the shower, your skin is damp and your pores are more open. This is an ideal time to apply it so that your skin absorbs the scents easily, they penetrate better and stay on for a longer time. It is also advisable to apply the perfume in places where the body temperature tends to be a little higher, such as the inside of the wrists, elbows or on the sides of the neck. A trick to identify these small areas: by touching these areas you will feel your pulse better.

Los 10 mejores perfumes franceses para mujer

Top 10 French Perfumes for Women

Paris is the world capital of perfume. This title is not a coincidence, so it is not surprising that you can find perfume museums there, or that the perfumers who live there create aromas as if they were composing a melody. Paris is a living history of perfume and that is why today we want to tell you about the 10 best French perfumes for women according to the criteria of a fragrance addict. DIVAIN-106 and DIVAIN-073 DIVAIN-106 is a classic fragrance that has become a worldwide icon. DIVAIN-073 is glamorous, elegant, ideal for going to a special party in this magical city. Dior Another symbol of elegance, femininity and beauty. Talking about Dior perfumes is talking about the aroma of France, and from among all its magnificent fragrances we have chosen J'Adore ( DIVAIN-063 ), a luxurious perfume that exalts the femininity and sensuality of the French woman. Yves Saint Laurent What would the fashion world be without Yves Saint Laurent? It's not just fashion, it's also luxury, creativity, individualism... And we couldn't leave behind its Opium perfume ( DIVAIN-115 ), a very opulent and idyllic aroma, ideal for a night of passion. Lancôme All the products of this brand have a touch of French charm. Lancôme has launched fragrances on the market since its beginnings and from that very first moment, it has thrilled its public. We have chosen Trésor ( DIVAIN-082 ), a scent inspired by love, and isn't Paris the capital of love? We couldn't forget Life is Beautiful ( DIVAIN-093 ), a wonderful fragrance made of details, for optimistic and dynamic women. Guerlain This French house has almost two centuries of history linked to beauty. Guerlain perfumes were the first to become an icon and their fame has accompanied them to this day. We chose La Petite Robe Noire ( DIVAIN-162 ), a sweet and mischievous fragrance, for women who captivate with a simple smile and who take life as a party. Rochas This was the first fashion house to design three-quarter-length coats and skirts with pockets. But it did not really become famous until it launched its women's perfumes. Mademoiselle Rochas ( DIVAIN-192 ) is, in our opinion, the best of them all, pure romance in a perfume bottle. Cacharel The name of this brand comes from a small bird from Camargue. Cacharel perfumes are eternally feminine, playful, joyful, full of energy and sweetness. Among them Anaïs Anaïs ( DIVAIN-111 ) is a legend, a scent for dreams to come true. Lou Lou ( DIVAIN-557 ) is a classic that is hard to ignore. And that's it for our list of the 10 best French perfumes. There may be some unforgivable omissions, but let us know in the comments! We'd love to hear your opinion.
