Choose a stable storage spot

Keep perfume according to the product’s instructions. As a practical habit, choose a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and sources of heat. A shelf inside a room or a cupboard is often more suitable than a sunny windowsill. Avoid leaving a bottle in a parked car, where conditions can change considerably during the day.

Close and handle the bottle carefully

Keep the cap or closure secure between uses and store bottles upright where practical. Avoid shaking or repeatedly opening a bottle unnecessarily. Keep the label so you can identify the product and follow its directions. If you carry a roll-on, check that it is tightly closed and protected from impact or leakage inside your bag.

Apply thoughtfully

Start with a light application and adjust to the occasion. Do not spray into your eyes or onto irritated skin. Follow the product instructions, and stop using a product if it causes discomfort. More fragrance is not always a better experience, especially in shared rooms. If you want to use perfume on fabric, check suitability first; delicate materials can mark or stain.

Organise around what you wear

Group your collection by the occasions you actually use it for: daily wear, evenings or travel. Keep samples clearly named and use them to make a considered choice before buying a larger size. Elence offers Signature Sprays, Attar & Roll-on and a custom Discovery Set. Browse the current product information for available sizes, scent descriptions and prices, then choose an option you will enjoy using regularly.
