I don't smell my perfume anymore, what should I do?

This is quite normal, it means that your sense of smell has become accustomed to the perfume, so it seems normal that you do not smell it as much as when you first use it. To remedy this, we can only advise you to use a stronger concentration.

What is the difference between a perfume, an “eau de parfum” and an “eau de toilette”?

The olfactory base of these three concentrations is the same. It is their concentrations that differ, sometimes offering some variations between them.

The “eau de toilette” is fresh, light and has a low concentration of perfume. It is ideal for people who like to be perfumed without overdoing it.

“Eau de parfum” has a higher concentration of perfume than “eau de toilette”. It is ideal for daily wear.

Parfum has the highest concentration.  It has a much more intense scent than the two other strengths and only a few drops are enough.

Can I recognize the concentration of the perfume based on the color and the details of the packaging?

Some fragrances in the Hanae Mori collection are sold in different concentrations. Since the bottle is the same the different levels of strength, the concentration can be identified by the product's packaging.

What is the ideal method for applying perfume on yourself ?

The two most common ways apply perfume are the following:

  • On your skin, on the pulse points: wrists, neck, behind the ears ... the mixture of the perfume and the skin creates your own very personal scentt.
  • On your clothes, so that the smell of the perfume remains the same as the original. It also lasts longer. However, we must warn you that some textiles can sometimes stain. It is therefore recommended that you use perfume on the inside of your clothes.

How do I make my fragrance last all day?

To ensure that your fragrance stays on your skin, you need to make sure that you are well moisturized. You can do this by applying a moisturizer before spraying your fragrance.

How do you recommend to store my perfume ?

The best method to store your perfume is  to keep it away from light, and in a room with a constant temperature.

My perfume changed color, what does that mean ?

During the life of the perfume, some external factors such as light can alter its initial color. This is totally natural, just like some flowers that darken with time. This has no impact on its olfactory composition.
