Perfume disappears in winter when dry skin and heavy clothing stop scent from projecting. Moisturize first and place fragrance where it can warm gently.

The fix
- apply unscented lotion to pulse points
- spray perfume over moisturized skin
- add one light spray to a scarf or coat lining
- carry a travel atomizer for one midday refresh
Prevent it next time
- Choose richer eau de parfum formulas in cold weather.
- Avoid rubbing wrists together after spraying.
Notes
Why this works
Fragrance lasts longer when it has a moisturized surface. A little fabric placement helps the scent escape winter layers.
