Show PERFUME 1 T f . magic of woman who knows how to choose it and use it correctly. It becomes her personal trademark wrapping her with an aura of femininity that's so very, very attractive. An ephemeral accessory, it underlines her personality and puts the finishing touch to her costume. If you want perfume to do these wonderful things for you, be sure to select the. proper scent Will you wear it mostly during the daytime for shopping, at the office, for bridge dates? Then you should choose something light and subtle perhaps a single-flow- er scent If you are the outdoors type, spicy or woodsy fragrances are for you. Hie cocktail hour, dinner, or thea- ter dates call for rich, musky perfumes and delicate Orientals that go perfectly with sophisticated clothes. Florals and some combination scents with a "dry lightness" may be worn at all times. When you're ready to "try on" some perfumes, tell your salesgirl what type you want and have her put a few drops of one scent on your right wrist and a few drops of another on your left (Chemistry of the skin can affect perfumes so don't try to choose by sniffing the bottles.) Allow a minute or two for "setting" and then smell one scent Blow out through the nostrils and sample the other fragrance. If you can't decide on either, have the salesgirl put still another perfume on a different part of your arm and go through the process of blowing out and sniffing again. At this point, it should be easy to pick the fragrance you Jike best .However, if you're still undecided, postpone your perfume-testin- g because three or four scents On are the most olfactory nerves can judge at one time. Once you have the proper perfume, take the time to apply it where it's most effective. Daub it on the "pulse spots" such as wrists, temples, along the throat, in the crooks of your arms even behind the knees. This way the heat of the body accentuates the fragrance. And there are some other tricks to "perfuming." Use an atomizer to mist your clothes (and you!) with perfume, but never put it directly on fabric or it may spot Tuck a perfume-soaked pellet inside your bra. Scent your hankies, and a delightful aroma will escape the minute you open your handbag. Remember, too, that perfume is at its best when understated, so instead of using it too lavishly, plan to touch it up as its fragrance fades away. The best perfume lasts only about four hours. by Nan Cabot ,-i- k' erfume is pure r in the hands a t ; 'i r is..?. f 1 I - n, I Before going out, scent your hair with a touch of perfume. , 7- f ; ! ; Lighter in strength than perfume, toilet water and .cologne can be splashed all over the body to form a foundation of scent A few drops of either in the rinse water scents lingerie.
