The best places to spray cologne are on your body's pulse points-areas where blood vessels are close to the skin and generate heat, helping to diffuse the scent. These include:
- Wrists
- Inner elbows
- Neck (especially the sides and base of the throat)
- Chest
- Behind the ears
- Behind the knees
- Collarbone
Applying cologne to these warm spots helps the fragrance develop and last longer throughout the day
. Additional tips for applying cologne:
- Spray right after showering on dry skin to maximize absorption
- Hold the spray bottle 3–6 inches away from your skin to avoid over-applying
- Start with one or two sprays on one or two pulse points, then adjust as needed
- Avoid spraying directly on your face or broken skin
- You can also lightly spray on clothing in inconspicuous areas like collars or cuffs, but be cautious of stains and test first
- Some prefer to apply cologne to chest area under clothes to enjoy the scent warmed by body heat without it being too overpowering
In summary, focus on pulse points such as wrists, neck, chest, inner elbows, and behind knees for the most effective and pleasant cologne application.
