    'Pulse points' are where blood vessels are closest to the skin; giving off more heat and acting like mini fragrance pumps. Pulse point areas include the wrist, behind the ear, base of the throat, inside of the elbow, and behind the knee. Applying perfumes to pulse points, such as the wrist or neck, tend to make the scent last longer.

    However, don't rub your wrists together after you apply fragrance. This can flatten the scent.
