Fragrance Tips
FRAGRANCE LAYERING:
- Try Colonia VIII (fruity/woody) followed by Colonia IX (woody).
- You could also layer either scent with Colonia IV (citrus).
OTHER SCENT PAIRING TIPS:
- Colonia IV with Colonia IX
- Colonia VIII with Colonia IV
- Colonia VI with Colonia IV
- Colonia VI with Colonia VII
- Colonia IV with Colonia VII
FRAGRANCE TIPS:
- Apply liberally to pulse points, just like Cleopatra did – such as inside wrist, inside elbow, behind the ears, base of the neck and behind the knee
- Avoid rubbing the wrists together after application as this will cause the molecules to breakdown and the fragrance to fade
- Keep skin moisturised as it allows fragrance to last longer
