When to Avoid Heavy Oud Perfumes

Avoid strong, heavy oud or sweet, intense perfumes as they can be overwhelming in closed rooms. Save these for evening wear or special events.

How to Apply Perfume Before an Interview

  • ✔ Stick to 4-6 controlled sprays.
  • ✔ Apply on clothes to avoid irritation in hot weather.
  • ✔ Spray from 1 foot away.
  • ✔ Choose a, fresh, office-appropriate scent over a, heavy one.
