01 / THE IDEA

LOOK CLOSER.

A perfume oil designed for skin may leave an oily mark on delicate fabrics. Follow its directions and apply only to permitted skin areas, rather than treating clothing as an alternative surface.

02 / THE CONTEXT

WHY IT MATTERS.

Allow the application to settle before putting on items that brush the area. Avoid rubbing perfumed skin directly against silk or other easily stained textiles.

03 / THE EXPERIENCE

YOUR OWN APPROACH.

If a fragrance is meant for fabric, its label should say so. A skin perfume should not be repurposed as a clothing scent.
