Men have creatively come up with ways to apply cologne for better results over the years; however, not all of them are effective. Here are a few ways that we at LaBelle like to apply cologne, as well as a few methods we recommend avoiding:

1. Shower First
1. Applying to clean skin has its benefits, but showering in hot water also opens the pores in the skin, allowing the cologne to get in deeper.
2. Pulse Points
1. Check for a pulse in your neck and wrists, then apply in that exact spot. Cologne responds to warmer points on your body better than others.
3. Spray From a Distance
1. Spraying without distance leads to overapplication. Consider spraying 3 to 6 inches from the skin.
4. Reapply
1. Throughout the day, reapply the cologne on the wrists.
5. Try Out a Few
1. Grab a few different scents to give a little variety
1. Creed Aventus
2. Moschino Toy Boy
3. Nautica Blue Sail
6. Use Higher Concentration Scent Types
1. Top 3
1. Parfum - 20-40% perfume oils
2. Eau de Parfum - 15-20% perfume oils
3. Eau de Toilette - 10-15% perfume oils
