As the CBD industry has grown, companies have been finding increasingly innovative ways to incorporate CBD into various products. One product that has been springing up a lot lately is CBD perfumes. Often, you'll see these in a roll-on type applicator. Their purpose is clear: they are meant to give you a pleasant scent while also allowing you to enjoy the many benefits of CBD oil.
On its face, using CBD perfumes is pretty simple. You roll the perfume over your skin, and you head on your way. However, you could probably benefit from a few simple tips if you want to make sure you're using the product to the fullest.
Choose a natural, earthy scent.
CBD has a pretty earthy aroma, so it tends to pair best with scents that are also earthy and natural. Two scents often combined with CBD in perfumes are tobacco and leather. This creates a really robust blend that smells balanced and sophisticated, yet rustic. While everyone has their own preference, in general, scents like strawberry and citrus do not tend to pair as well with CBD, so avoid buying these scents unless you have definitely sampled them first.
Roll the perfume on your temples or behind your ears.
Usually, you want to apply perfume in areas where your blood vessels are close to the skin since this warms the perfume and throws the scent a little better. This is doubly true of any perfume that contains CBD. If you roll it over an area where the blood vessels are just under the skin, it will be better absorbed into the bloodstream, which means you will feel its effects sooner. Your temples and the little area behind your ears are easy places to apply it. You can also apply it on your wrists.
Don't rely on the perfume alone for your CBD needs.
If you are someone who ordinarily uses CBD to calm you down or remedy pain, don't rely on the perfume alone for this use. You'll end up using so much that you smell just like the perfume bottle. Many people use the perfume as their first dose of CBD in the morning, and then they use gummies or a vape if they need additional CBD throughout the day. This approach gives you better control over the strength of your scent.
CBD perfumes are one of the coolest CBD products to hit the market in recent years. And if you use them well, you'll get a lot of enjoyment. Look out for options like 30ml tobacco and leather CBD perfume.
