Applying fragrance to well-moisturized skin helps lock in the scent, as hydrated skin holds fragrance molecules more effectively than dry skin. Rather than spraying excessively, focus on spraying strategically targeting pulse points such as the wrists, neck, and behind the ears allows the warmth of the body to naturally diffuse the scent throughout the day. It is also important to avoid rubbing the fragrance into the skin, as friction can break down the scent structure and reduce its longevity. Finally, storing perfume bottles away from heat and direct sunlight preserves the integrity of the fragrance, preventing it from degrading over time and ensuring it lasts longer both on the skin and in the bottle.<\/p>\n<p>\n\n<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/wp:post-content -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p><\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We bring deep, functional expertise, but are known for our holistic perspective: we capture value across boundaries&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":9925,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[40],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9997","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-luxe-tz"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bensonandcompany.co.tz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9997","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bensonandcompany.co.tz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bensonandcompany.co.tz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bensonandcompany.co.tz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bensonandcompany.co.tz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=9997"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/bensonandcompany.co.tz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9997\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9999,"href":"https:\/\/bensonandcompany.co.tz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9997\/revisions\/9999"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bensonandcompany.co.tz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/9925"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bensonandcompany.co.tz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=9997"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bensonandcompany.co.tz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=9997"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bensonandcompany.co.tz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=9997"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
