What is fragrance decanting?
What is fragrance decanting?
Decanting fragrances is the process of transferring perfume or cologne from its original bottle into a smaller container, often called a decant or atomizer. Some of the advantages include:
- Portability: Smaller bottles are easier to carry for travel or daily use.
- Sampling: It allows you to try a fragrance without buying a full size bottle. Saving 💵
- Sharing: Fragrance enthusiasts often decant to share scents with others.
The process typically involves using a sterile syringe, pipette, or funnel to avoid contamination and preserve the scent's integrity.
What type of decants/atomizer do we use?
High Quality Atomizers
Hight quality glass vials protected by aluminum outer casing.
Fine Mist Pray: Sprays 0.0.6 - 0.07cc at a time. Leak Proof: Additional layer (Blue Monster Sealant Tape).
How long does a 5ml or 10ml atomizer last?
I have personally tested the atomizers. So no guessing games here.
5 ML = 70 Full Sprays
( if you use 4 sprays per day it will last 17.5 days)
10 ML = Multiply it by 2 = 140 Full Sprays
( if you use 4 sprays per day it will last 35 days)
Here are some tips for making your atomizers last longer.
Moisturize: Apply unscented lotion to your pulse points before spraying to help the fragrance adhere better to your skin and last longer.
Apply to Pulse Points: Focus on pulse points like wrists, neck, and behind the ears where the warmth of your skin helps diffuse the fragrance.
Layer fragrances: Use matching body lotion or shower gel to create a base that enhances and extends the longevity of your perfume.
Avoid rubbing: Do not rub your wrists together after applying perfume, as this can break down the fragrance molecules and make it fade faster.
Store properly: Keep your atomizer in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and humidity to prevent degradation of the fragrance.
