How to use
- Spray two to three times onto pulse points: throat, behind the ears and on the wrists.
- Allow the ylang-ylang-aldehyde-bergamot opening to settle without rubbing the wrists together.
- Layer with a neutral, unscented body lotion to extend longevity.
- Re-apply only as needed — Eau de Parfum compositions tend to project well on their own.
