How Do You Apply Your Cologne?

This may obviously not go down well with some men. TAKE YOUR BATH EACH MORNING and at night with either a scented soap or body wash. Not done yet. Now apply a deodorant, antiperspirant or roll-on immediately after the bath. Funny huh?

The Cologne is another important, in fact, very essential accessory to any man's skin care regime and by extension, his wardrobe. Although not too many know the benefits of going the extra mile in smelling nice. It gives you an air of freshness anytime.

Why should you wear a cologne? Not only do you smell a little fresher when needed, you actually appear clean and classified as trendy. But smelling nice doesn't mean you have to go overboard and douse yourself with a strong smelling cologne especially after t=using strong smelling toiletries. Applying the right amount of cologne could be tricky if you really like the scent.

Now, you might ask, how do you apply the cologne? The best way, like I always advice is to spray it on bare skin in order for the true notes to combine with your natural scent, actually making the smell all your won. Your scent should only be smelt by people who are within an arm's length away from you - you don't have to overwhelm people with the smell of your cologne.

Adding to that, don't ever go cheap when buying cologne. not only will it react badly with your skin, it can never smell as good as the original.

Also, never ever try to disguise body odour with cologne - it is the worst thing you could ever do to yourself. Have a shower instead and then apply your cologne afterward.

You must note this, if you wear a particular cologne for a long period of time, people who are frequently around you will find themselves thinking about you when someone else wears the same cologne. That's the beauty and perfection to knowing the art of applying cologne within the best measure.

I hope you found this piece very useful. Don't thank me, thank my style counselor; Miss Nkarenyi Ukonu. She's such a delightful person to have shared this basics with me.
