An Interview With Sophia Grojsman
Grojsman is a senior perfumer at International Flavors & Fragrances in New York and has worked on scents for Yves Saint Laurent, Christian Lacroix, and Estee Lauder.
A lot of women worry about wearing too much perfume, which I think is foolish. Your fragrance reflects your personality. Choose something that suits you and allow it to become a part of who you are.
Start the day. I prefer to wear daytime fragrances lower on my body. As the perfume evaporates, it rises up, so you continue to smell it all day. I spritz behind my knees, on my wrists, and a little on my skirt before I leave the house.
Spray it high. When you put on an evening fragrance--which is anything that makes you feel more sensual--spray it behind your ears and around your neck so that it envelops you right away, rather than rising up slowly. I spritz a little in my hair, too. (Of course, I'd take this approach any time you have a lover calling, day or night.)
