Cologne is the term used on context of a perfume that is made in the style that
originated in Cologne, Germany. It comprises of a mixture of citrus oils,
including those of lemon, orange, tangerine, bergamot, lime, grapefruit and
neroli, in a base of dilute ethanol. Apart from that, cologne can also have
essential oils, like lavender oil, rosemary oil, thyme oil, petit-grain (orange
leaf) oil and jasmine oil, in it. In today's world, cologne is considered almost
a necessary application, especially before you step out of the house. In the
following lines, we will tell you the proper way to apply cologne.
How To Use Cologne
* If you are using the cologne after a long time or have just bought the bottle
from the market, first ensure that it is spraying out the correct amount. In
such a case, you might have to take a few pumps to get the cologne out of the
bottle.
* Now, you should spray one pump of cologne on either your left or right wrist.
* Rub the wrists together, so that the cologne gets evenly spread on both of
them.
* Spray the cologne on your hands/fingers and wipe them behind the ears, on the
chest and on the side of your neck (where you feel the pulse).
* If your cologne bottle doesn't come with a spray top, put your finger over the
top and turn the bottle upside down.
* Thereafter, apply it on the inside of your wrists, behind the ears, on the
chest and on the side of your neck.
Some Tips
* It is always advisable to pat the cologne on the desired body parts. Do not
rub, as rubbing would make the natural oils on your skin cover the cologne.
* While spraying cologne, make sure to keep it away from your clothes. If you
spray it onto the clothes, you might end up running them.
* Whenever you buy cologne, spray a little from the tester onto the inside of
your wrist. Wait for a few seconds before smelling it. If you like the
fragrance, buy it.
* Remember that the cologne should be enough to leave a lingering presence after
you have passed a person. But, it should not be so powerful that a room starts
reeking of it the moment you enter. |
