how to smelling better?

The word perfume came from the Latin Perfumare, meaning "to smoke through". The perfumes were made more than 4000 years ago. They were discovered in an ancient perfumery, people discovered at least 60 stills, mixing bowls, funnels, and perfume bottles. In ancient times people used herbs and spices as well as flowers.

Perfumes were used hide bad body smells, and make people smell attractive. It was important before bathing was a common activity. It was said that Louis XIV only took 3 baths in his life. So they need to use lots of perfume to cover the bad smells. It was at the time of the Renaissance that perfumes became particularly  popular in Europe, and it is Catherine de Medicis, who is introduced a fashion for perfumes into France.

There is a list of common terms of perfume classification. Parfum, which has 20% of perfume oil. Usually it will last about 8 hours a day. Eau de Parfum, typically it has 10%~15% of perfume oil, usually it last 4 hours. Eau de Toilette, 5%~10% of perfume oil. Eau de Cologne is around 5% of perfume oil. When you are trying to buy perfume, this is one of the most important things. Depends on how long you want your perfume last. If you want to get a perfume last for a long time, the sales tell you the perfume you want will last all day, don't ever believe that. Only parfum could last really long time, and they usually only sell it in the perfume factory.

Before you buy a perfume, TRY it on you. Perfume will smell different on everyone, depends on the skin type. And it will also smell different from paper.

It will also influence the top and middle notes.
