Room Sprays: Suitable as Cologne? - Page 3
Question:
Update: So I did apply some of the MPG Outremer lightly to my wrists a few days ago. Not bad but a tad cloying for my taste. Later I sprayed some lightly around a small room in my house. Three days later and the aroma is still detectable! I like this one better as a room spray. Griff Answer: Originally Posted by Gerald I sometimes use Jo Malone's White Hyacinths Room spray. Its longevity is better than many other fragrances' and it doesn't have any negative effects for my skin etc (but Malone's room sprays , called "living colgnes" are labeled as "to use for your room or for yourself". This may be true...and somewhat in line with her scent philosophy but my favorite room scent is by her, grapefruit... one day I saw it sitting there and put a small amount on my wrist and it just turned bad, flat and very awful on me. Very sour with none of the complexity of an accord that I would have expected...It was weeks before I could use the spray in my house again. Answer: For room sprays that don't say they can be worn on skin or warn against it, why not try a touch on fabric? Or in a scent locket perhaps. And as far as (in)direct inhalation, and skin contact: think of all the scented household cleaners where it isn't so bad to breathe the scent that lingers, but you really oughtn't be breathing in too much, and they might be corrosive to skin or lungs. Answer: Originally Posted by shifts I want to test Costes room spray too, and Luckyscent doesn't seem to have it either :/ you can buy it easyly at www.barfumeria.com Answer: I love the idea, but the reality is, that unless it states on the label that it's safe on the skin, I wouldn't risk it. There are long term irritations as well as short term. Benzene is a known carcinogen. Better safe than sorry. Answer: Originally Posted by madridbatabidd you can buy it easyly at www.barfumeria.com Thanks. But it has been a while since I posted that comment, and now Luckyscent among others also carries it. Still haven't tried it though. Waiting for Costes EdT to arrive in a swap right now, but will eventually get the room spray as well. Answer: I started using room sprays on my body. Now I rub urinal cakes all over myself in the mornings, the sillage on those cakes are fantastic. It projects very well. I always get noticed when I do it.
