How to Choose Perfumes That Don’t Fade Too Fast
Have you ever felt that your favorite perfume doesnt smell the same anymore,
even though others still notice it? Thats not because your perfume has lost its quality its because youre experiencing olfactory fatigue, also known as nose blindness.
What Is Olfactory Fatigue?
Olfactory fatigue happens when your nose becomes desensitized to familiar scents.
Your brain filters out smells it deems safe to avoid sensory overload which is why you cant smell your own home or perfume after a while, even though others can.
Why Does It Happen So Quickly?
- Wearing the same perfume every day the brain stops reacting to a familiar scent.
- Overly intense fragrances heavy musky or amber notes can cause nose fatigue faster.
- Applying too much perfume overspraying overwhelms your nose and speeds up desensitization.
How to Choose Perfumes That Dont Cause Nose Blindness
1. Rotate your scents regularly
Use 2-3 different perfumes for different moods or days. This keeps your sense of smell refreshed.
2. Choose layered fragrances
Perfumes with complex note structures (TopHeartBase) evolve over time, keeping the scent experience dynamic and interesting.
3. Spray moderately
A few spritzes on pulse points wrists, behind ears, or neck are enough. Too much can dull your nose quickly.
4. Reset your nose
Smelling coffee beans or breathing fresh air helps reset your olfactory senses when you start feeling scent fatigue.
