  • The light scent of a subtle perfume that lingers a few moments after you walk by has been known to turn heads when you're out in public. You don't want to overdo it just to stand out, so to learn how to smell good, check out the information provided on this page.

  • Introduction

    • There are a number of different methods you can use to make yourself smell good, from perfumes and essential oils to the right combination of laundry detergent and fabric softener. It's important that you spray perfumes and colognes on your pulse points (ie. wrists and neck), and not all over, as too much fragrance added to your body can be overbearing.

  • Step 1: Perfumes

    • There are literally thousands of perfumes on the market, and they all work differently with each individual body chemistry. Spend some time testing different fragrances you like to see how they work with your body chemistry. Don't overdo it with perfume, as too much perfume will have the adverse effect, causing your smell to offend, rather than appeal to noses around you.

  • Step 2: Essential Oils

    • Like perfumes, essential oils are the concentrated oils from herbs and plants. Essential oils are all natural, and you can add a quick dab throughout the day to your favorite spots for a scent pick-me-up. Do your homework before using essential oils, as some may cause reaction on sensitive skin.

  • Step 3: Scented Lotions

    • A scented lotion is a great way to not only moisturize your skin, but keep you smelling fresh and clean throughout the day. You may also want to combine your scented lotion with similarly scented soaps, body washes and companion body sprays if they are available.

  • Step 4: Baby Powder

    • A light dousing of baby powder will help you smell good all day, as it not only helps absorb sweat, but has a light, pleasant fragrance.

  • Step 5: Avoid Smoke

    • You will want to avoid toxic or noxious smells like cigarette smoke or other types of smoke, as they will infiltrate the fabric of your clothing and linger with you all day.

  • Step 6: Regular Hygiene Practices

    • Practicing good hygiene is one way to guarantee that you will smell good all the time. Showering and using deodorant regularly will keep you clean and smelling fresh.

  • Conclusion

    Fragrances, powder and good hygiene are the steps toward smelling good. Find the right scents that compliment your body chemistry, and don't overdo the fragrance, otherwise you'll have the adverse effect on people.



  • Step 7: Change Your Deodorant

    It's important to change up your underarm deodorant every few months, as your body chemistry will better absorb a new deodorant.
