How to Use Clean Fragrances Safely & Effectively

• Patch test: Apply behind the ear or on inner arm before full use.
  
  
• Apply to clothing: If direct skin application is risky, mist light layers onto fabric or scarves.
  
  
• Less is more: Clean fragrances often have lighter base profiles—one to two sprays may suffice.
  
  
• Avoid layering harsh perfumes: Don’t mix strong synthetic fragrances over clean ones—they can cause reactions.
  
  
• Store smart: Keep bottles away from heat and light to preserve fragile natural ingredients.
