Undoubtedly, perfume holds a significant place in our lives, which is why you're here, right? With that in mind, here's a comprehensive overview of what you need to know about perfume—well, most of it.

• The term 'perfume' traces back to the Latin 'per fumum', meaning 'through smoke'. The world's first chemist and perfumer was a remarkable woman named Tapputi.

• The same fragrance can take on different nuances on distinct individuals due to the interplay with their skin's unique chemistry.

• Perfume unfolds over time, revealing its top, heart, and base notes. Top notes are delicate and fleeting, heart notes linger, and base notes endure the longest.

• While perfume doesn't have an expiration date, it does undergo changes over time. This is why it's best enjoyed within the first three years.

• To extend a fragrance's lifespan, store it in a cool, dark place with stable temperatures. Avoid storing it in the bathroom or car.

• Eau de Toilette and Eau de Parfum vary in concentration—the pure perfume oil content. Eau de Toilette contains around 10%, while Eau de Parfum boasts 15%. Parfums have over 20%.

• Avoid applying perfume to your hair, as most contain alcohol that can dry it out.

• Resist the urge to rub your wrists together after application, as it can alter the fragrance due to increased interaction with your skin's natural oils.

• To make the most of your perfume's potency, apply it to pulse points: inner wrists, base of neck, behind earlobes, and inner elbows.

• Most modern perfumes utilize synthetic scents rather than natural ingredients due to mass production.

• Some perfumes include synthetic animal-derived components.
