III- Key steps for nighttime layering

1. Hydrated and clean skin: Hydration helps fragrances to adhere better.
2. Base layer: spray the most intense or deep perfume on pulse points: wrists, neck and behind the ears.
3. Middle layer: includes a complementary fragrance of medium intensity to balance or soften the base.
4. Top layer (optional): Sweet or subtle perfumes like Odyssey Toffee Coffee have the potential to top off the blend with a warm, gourmand appeal.
5. Time between layers: wait a couple of minutes for each perfume to set before applying the next one.

• Experiment thoroughly: start with a small amount and modify it according to the evolution of the mixture.
