How to Use Solid Perfume

Imagine getting up in your warm living space situated in Punjab, and looking for your perfume, only to discover that it’s too weighty to carry around in your purse on your travels.

At Labaib, we understand this. We envision a world in which fragrance and convenience meet and where individual style is mingled with practicality. We created an exclusive service that will show you how to wear solid fragrance with confidence and enjoyment. No matter if you’re just beginning how to use solid perfume, our guide is the best resource for you.

What Is Solid Perfume?

The solid perfume can be described as a scent that is made of wax that is typically an amalgamation of natural oils (like soy or beeswax) and carrier oils (like almond or jojoba), as well as essential oils that are aromatic, or perfume oils. In contrast to alcohol-based fragrances, this is a soft, balm-like fragrance that melts as you heat your body and releases a delicate fragrance that is intimate and calming.

Why should you choose a solid fragrance?

• The portability of solid perfume is that it comes in small tins or sticks, perfect for travelling or putting in your pocket.
• Subtle Aroma: It is pleasant and personal, making it ideal for intimate encounters.
• Longevity: The wax can help keep fragrance in place, so it can stay on the skin’s surface for a long time.
• Natural formulation: Usually composed of nourishing ingredients, it’s gentler on skin with sensitive conditions.

The Benefits of Using Solid Perfume

Travel-Friendly Elegance

Solid perfume is a great companion to your hectic life in Mughalabad or when you travel beyond Punjab. The compact size of the bottle means there are no large glass bottles or TSA limitations. Put it in your bag, purse, or bag for work, or your pockets for quick refreshment.

Skin-Friendly and Nourishing

Since solid fragrances are made up of natural oils and waxes, they are often used as moisturising balms. If you use it on your skin, you’re not just providing fragrance but also nourishment.

Long-Lasting Yet Discreet

In contrast to other sprays, which can be overpowering, perfumes made of solids are more subtle in their diffusion. The wax base slowly releases the scent, giving you a subtle, long-lasting scent that lasts.

Eco-Friendly

A majority of solid perfumes have very little packaging, often in reusable tins. Also, they stay clear of synthetic fixatives and alcohol. At Labaib, our dedication to the environment means using sustainable waxes and oils.

How to Use Solid Perfume Step by Step

The process of learning how to use a solid perfume might feel different when you’re used to sprays. Here’s a step-by-step guide.

Choose the Right Container

The most common solid perfumes are

• Pots or tins: Use your fingers to grasp the product.
• Balms or sticks: They appear like lip balms and are twisted up.

Select based on your own personal preferences and lifestyle.

Warm It Up

The best way to enjoy solid perfume is when the body is slightly warm:

1. Scoop up a little bit with the tip of your finger (if in the form of a vessel) or twist it up at the ends (if it’s in the form of a stick).
2. Rub it between your fingers or gently rub the skin, allowing it to heat. The heat melts the wax, releasing the scent.

Apply to Pulse Points

Apply the fragrance to the pulse points of your body. These are areas that have blood vessels close to your skin and produce heat. These points help in amplifying the scent

• Wrists
• Behind the ear
• Between the elbows
• Below the collarbone
• In between those knees (for legs)

Also, think about applying some to the ends of your hair or on your clothing (fabric is a great way to keep scent in place), so long as it’s a product that’s safe for fabric.

Layer Wisely

If you prefer a multi-layered scent, you can mix solid fragrance with other products:

• Begin by applying a moisturizer that is unscented. Then apply a solid fragrance over it.
• Make use of matching or complementary oils or lotions to increase the fragrance.
• First, spray a mist and then apply a similar solid perfume to strengthen the scent.

Reapply as Needed

Because the scent of a solid perfume is delicate and subtle, it’s possible to apply the scent again after about 4 to 6 hours. Follow the same steps: warm up by applying the fragrance to your points on your pulse, and then enjoy the scent

Tips and Best Practices

Use the Right Amount

A little is better. A tiny amount can go far. Too much scooping could make the smell heavier or oily.

Be Gentle

Make sure to apply the fragrance with a gentle touch to your perfume, particularly if the fragrance is contained in a container. Do not dig in; just a gentle stroke.

Choose Complementary Scents

If you mix, select fragrances that work. For instance, a floral solid perfume is great with a citrus-yellow mist.

Test on Skin First

Always test new fragrances on a small area of skin to determine allergies or sensitivities.

Storage Matters

Place your scent in a cool, dry area, away from the sun’s rays and heat. This helps preserve the texture and quality of the fragrance.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Over-Application

Applying too much perfume could make it feel oily or overpowering. Use small amounts of perfume.

Ignoring Skin Preparation

When your skin appears wet, the wax might not be able to melt correctly. Apply a few drops of moisturiser that isn’t scented, if you need it.

Not Melting Enough

Solid perfumes work best when warm. If you don’t warm it with your perfume, you won’t get the full experience of  

Storing Poorly

If you leave your perfumed candle in a hot area (like windows that are sunny), it could result in the melting of your wax or the fragrance altering.

• Make sure the lid is tightly shut to stop dust or moisture from entering.
• Avoid areas such as your car’s window or dashboard in where temperatures are erratic.

Instead of throwing out the tins you have, make sure to refill them with Labaib’s perfume maintenance and refill service offered by Labaib. This environmentally friendly option promotes sustainability and can save you cash in the end.
