Try this method with every perfume you sample or own to gauge how much to spray (longevity,, projection, sillage):

Spray just once (or twice if it’s a weak spray or sample) on some part of your hand. If a sample dab vial, do multiple dabs to the same spot, or upend it flush with your skin and slightly break the vacuum. Or use your fingers to dab.

Don’t bring your nose to your skin. Wait for it to dry, and then wait for it to reach your nose (often there will be a time delay). If you can’t smell it at arm’s length, move your hand incrementally closer to your nose until you detect it. (This may not be max projection, as some perfumes can get stronger after this.)

The opening and heart are meant to be smelled in the air and much of the drydown/basenotes, closer to skin. Clock how long it takes, how the fragrance changes over the time you can smell it. You can also measure sillage/scent trail by moving your hand about or walking.

After you do this, you’ll know for sure whether to spray once or 5 times.

In her essay Less TikTok, More Screaming, Persinette writes that these e-therapists have turned healing into “a religion, a lifestyle, and above all, a brand” while promoting a culture of isolation and individual optimization. In this ecosystem, “...therapy has become a litmus test for social belonging and inherent goodness, a sign that one is aware of and has adapted to the newest standards of how to behave.”  The social standard this culture offers is one of controlled, placated solitude. Its narrative often insists that you’re surrounded by toxic people who are trying to hurt you, and the only way to ever become the person you’re meant to be is to cut them all off, retreat into a high-gloss cocoon of talk therapy and Notion templates, and emerge a non-emotive butterfly who will surely attract the relationships you’ve always deserved — relationships with other “healed” people, who don’t hurt you or depend on you or force you to feel difficult, taxing emotions. And finally, your life will be as frictionless and shiny as you, alone, have always deserved for it to be.
