Make Your Cologne Last ALL Day (Ultimate Fragrance Longevity Hacks)
About this video
Centeno teaches multiple strategies to make fragrances last longer and project more effectively, covering skincare preparation, fragrance concentrations, specific fragrance families and notes, application techniques, storage methods, and authentication tips. He also promotes his Mission Fragrances line designed to enhance performance through scent.
Key takeaways
- Centeno recommends applying unscented moisturizer to skin before fragrance application and staying hydrated, as dry skin causes fragrances to evaporate faster
- Centeno explains that eau de parfum (EDP) and parfum concentrations (15-30% fragrance oils) generally last longer than eau de toilette (EDT), and recommends niche fragrance houses for higher oil concentrations
- Centeno argues that certain fragrance notes like vanilla, oud, and specific florals (violet leaf) have better longevity than typical citrus fragrances, and recommends researching fragrances before purchasing expensive bottles
- Centeno advises against storing fragrances on windowsills exposed to sunlight, rubbing fragrances together after application, and purchasing from untrusted sources to avoid counterfeit products
