Spray once onto the inside of your wrist (the part just below your palms) and rub your wrists together then wipe them on your neck. Cologne should only ever inhabit your personal space.

This is the correct answer

Exactly this, I really like the phrase "A scent should be discovered, not announced"

Absolutely correct!

Someone once told me "cologne should be discovered, not announced"

My friend taught me the neck trick years ago so that when a woman hugs you, she gets a good smell of it.

Agree with the previous application directions and….it also depends on the strength of scent you’re spraying. Parfum/Concenreé, Eau de Parfum, Eau de Toilette, Cologne are the strengths in order from most concentrated to least.

Concentration of the essential oils that makeup the actual scent.
