Instructions
1
Know that cologne has two purposes. The first is to provide a backup for your deodorant when you're hot and the second is to give you a signature scent that people will remember you by.
2
Decide whether to use a spray bottle or a bottle with a simple cap opening. Spray bottles are easier to regulate, but some brands are not available in this form.
3
Remember to only use one or two spritzes of a spray cologne or a similar amount of a bottle cologne. When spraying, position the spray nozzle about two inches from your skin.
4
Apply cologne to areas of the body that generate the most heat. This allows the cologne to slowly emanate throughout the day. Typical areas of application are wrists, neck, back, chest and thighs.
5
Allow the cologne to sit on the skin without rubbing it in. Rubbing these areas can alter the scent.
Tips & Warnings
Consider applying scent to areas that will be covered by clothing. This allows the scent to come to the surface throughout the day.
When using a bottle without a sprayer, dip one finger into the bottle and use it to apply the cologne to selected areas.
Don't apply cologne to all of the suggested areas. Instead, choose one or two.
Avoid "splashing" the cologne like you may have seen actors do on television commercials. This is a sure way to overdo your cologne application.
