Not A Perfume by Juliette Has A Gun is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance for women. Not a Perfume lives up to its name. It’s made with just a single component: Cetalox, which is typically added as a base note when used in fragrances. Here, it plays the starring and only role. The new non-perfume is arriving from the house of Juliette Has a Gun in September 2010. Juliette Has a Gun Not a Perfume in not really a perfume but fragrant AMBROX in a flacon.
- C16 H28 O is formula of Ambroxan, the only key ingredient in this non-perfume. Ambrox was born in the 1950es in Firmenich as substitute for grey amber which was very expensive for a common use in compositions. Ambrox is typically used as one of base notes of compositions, while it has a leading role in this non-perfume.
Juliette Has A Gun Not a Perfume is a provocative declaration which does not follow the rules of modern perfumery. Not a Perfume is based on contradictions, since its composition is created of molecules and is the only fragrance without allergens.
Mastering the Art of the Spray
To make your fragrance last longer and project beautifully, follow these simple steps:
- Moisturize First
Scent clings best to hydrated skin. Apply an unscented lotion or a matching body cream before spraying to "lock in" the molecules. - Target Pulse Points
Apply fragrance where the blood flows closest to the skin. The heat in these areas helps develop the scent throughout the day:Wrists, Behind the ears, Base of the throat Inside the elbows - The "Golden Rule": Don't Rub
After spraying your wrists, avoid rubbing them together. This "crushes" the delicate top notes and causes the fragrance to evaporate faster. Just spray and let it air dry. - Distance Matters
Hold the bottle about 3-6 inches away from your skin when spraying. This ensures a fine mist rather than a concentrated puddle. - Mist Your Hair (Carefully)
For an extra trail of scent (known as sillage), spray your hairbrush or a light mist over your head. Since perfume contains alcohol, avoid spraying directly onto your hair daily to prevent dryness.
