They are perfect if you want something light and refreshing during the summer when you want a light cooling effect and to be reminded of the sun and outside.

How to Make Your Perfume Last Longer Once you find the perfect clean scent, you want it to last through the day, right? These straightforward tips can help. Apply your perfume to all the classic pulse points. Your wrists, neck, and behind the ears are warm places that will help the scent grow and linger.
Staying hydrated helps your scent stay longer, too. Use an unscented lotion or a coordinating scented body lotion. This gives your perfume a base to stick to.
Also, try not to rub your wrists together when applying perfume. It breaks down the molecules, and it won’t last as long. Just pat it on and let it sit.
Keep your perfume fresh by storing it properly. That means keep it in a cool, dark place. Avoid keeping it in direct sunlight as it can change how it smells over time.
