Troubleshooting
Scent does not last as long as expected.
Apply the fragrance to moisturized skin, as dry skin tends to absorb scent more quickly. Focus on pulse points. Consider reapplying lightly throughout the day, or layering with an unscented body lotion.
The fragrance smells different on my skin compared to the bottle or a test strip.
Perfumes interact with individual skin chemistry, which can alter how a scent develops. Allow the fragrance to settle for 10-15 minutes on your skin to experience its true middle and base notes. What smells good on one person may smell different on another.
The sprayer is clogged or not dispensing properly.
Gently wipe the nozzle with a clean, damp cloth to remove any dried residue. If still clogged, try pressing the sprayer firmly a few times to dislodge any blockage. Avoid using sharp objects, which could damage the mechanism.
Experiencing skin irritation (redness, itching) after application.
Discontinue use immediately. Cleanse the affected area with mild soap and water. If symptoms persist or worsen, consult a healthcare professional. You may have a sensitivity to one of the ingredients.

Setup and First Use 1. Unboxing: Carefully remove the bottle from its packaging. 2. First Spray: It is common for a new perfume bottle to require a few sprays to prime the pump and ensure a consistent mist. Aim away from your body for the first few pumps. ### Compatibility - Intended User: This fragrance is designed for adult females, aligning with its feminine and sensual character. - Skin Sensitivity: As with any cosmetic product, if you have sensitive skin, consider performing a patch test on a small, inconspicuous area before full application. Discontinue use if irritation occurs. ### Care and Storage - Storage Location: To preserve the integrity and longevity of the fragrance, store the bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and humidity. A drawer or cupboard is ideal. - Cap Security: Always ensure the cap is securely replaced after each use. This prevents evaporation of the alcohol content and protects the fragrance from oxidation and contamination. - Avoid Shaking: Avoid vigorously shaking the bottle, as this can introduce air and potentially degrade the fragrance over time. - Travel: When traveling, keep the bottle upright and secured to prevent leakage or damage.
