Troubleshooting

Fragrance does not last long

Ensure skin is moisturized before application. Apply to pulse points. Reapply sparingly if needed, though longevity is a key feature.

Scent seems too strong or overwhelming

Apply a smaller amount. Consider applying to less prominent areas or to clothing for a softer projection. Best suited for cooler weather or evening events.

Bottle or sprayer not functioning

Ensure the sprayer cap is properly secured. If the issue persists, contact the retailer or Penhaligon's customer service for assistance.
