Applying perfume has many purposes; it can be to smell better, attract a mate or to mask something an unpleasant smell. It is so widely used that the perfume business is growing bigger every day. Celebrities are endorsing brands and attaching their names to it. It is an ever expanding empire that will continue to soar as long as people can smell.

Perfume was first invented to mask unwanted smells, and it has been around since the days of Cleopatra. Back then, people used to use natural herbs and spices to smell nice such as vanilla beans and coconut. With climates in some countries being as hot as they were and without the help of deodorant, men and women were left to their own devices and invented ways to smell nice. The idea caught on and people began adding smells to their skin to smell better.

Perfume has also been widely associated with attracting a mate. When a couple go out on a date, adding perfume is a way to finalize the look. The make-up has been done, perfect outfit put on and a nice breeze of perfume is essential to feeling sexy and pretty. Often time`s girls will spray perfume on before they head out to bars to meet men. Some bathrooms even offer perfume machines in case you forgot to put perfume before you left the house.

Some people are afraid that if they are not wearing perfume that they will not be able to attract a partner. It can sometimes be a certain smell that attracts or detours a man away from a woman. Either he likes the smell or is frightened by it. Either way it might be best to pick a popular selling perfume if used for the intention of mate selecting.

Perfume can be sprayed in many areas. Some women spray it over their hair, although it can get in the eyes which may hurt and usually styling products in the hair smell nice already. Another place to spray perfume is on the neck. This place is popular because when a women gets close to a men he can smell the scent, the only down side is if he attempts to kiss the neck, in which case he might be turned off by the taste.

Dabbing perfume on the wrist has also been a popular place to add some scents. As you move your arms around the scent can trickle out and create a cloud of perfume as you walk. Some people also spray it on the outside of their clothes such as on tops and pants. This idea is smart because you don`t have to apply it right to the skin.

While anyplace is a good place to spray some perfume, there are places that are better than others. If perfume spraying is ahead of a date or romantic experience, it might be best to spray it in places that will not be kissed, if it is on just for fun, then spraying it wherever is another option as well. If you think you might be returning a piece of clothing or if you are borrowing someone`s clothes with or without permission, you might not want to spray it on clothes unless you plan on washing them before you give them back. Finding the perfect spots to add perfume is up to the person themselves.
