This is because leather is an organic product that is porous, unlike metal that is solid. The fragrance industry has also seen a rise in leather based fragrances, which Al Haramain also makes for its discerning customers worldwide. For this reason, several watch / perfume gift sets usually place a heavy emphasis on leather watches and leather belts as the effect is greater for perfume oils.

2. Moisturized skin holds fragrance for a longer period
It’s always best to apply your perfume just after taking a bath or shower. This is because even the best perfume will diffuse much better on hydrated and moisturized skin. In addition, hydrated skin will hold the fragrance longer than dry skin, which typically will have a harder surface, thus giving the fragrance little room to be absorbed. For this reason, many perfume sets especially for women have a moisturizing body lotion in addition to the perfume.
