A PERFUME junkie has revealed how she keeps her body smelling fresh all day.
She said her fragrance hack just requires a $3 buy in addition to the usual perfume.

Sasha (@sasha.mints) filmed herself demonstrating the tip in a viral video on TikTok.
She started out in the kitchen, boiling up some water on the stove.
She promised that while not many people know the hack, she swears by it.
Sasha pulled out a small container of Vaseline and placed it inside of the boiling water.
WHERE THE MAGIC HAPPENS
Sasha instructed users to “liquify” the Vaseline using the boiling water method.
A mini Vaseline like the one she used can be purchased from Target, $2.29.
She sprayed her favorite perfume into the softened tub of Vaseline.
Next, she mixed it in, closed the container, and placed it in the refrigerator for two hours to harden.

After the mixture re-solidified it was ready to be put to good use.
She applied it to the pulse points of her wrist, giving the camera a thumbs up.
WHY IT WORKS
The hack works by keeping the fragrance in place using a stronger agent, such as Vaseline.
This leads to a longer-lasting perfume as many fragrances tend to not stick around for long.
Sasha herself described the hack as something out of this world.
“This works wonders,” she said.
PUBLIC OPINION
Several TikTokers expressed their thoughts in the comment section of the viral video.
“I buy the mini plain Vaseline ones in lip section to do this. Little mini travel size for my purse,” one wrote.
“This was a thing to do in the 90s, according to Cosmo or mix eyeshadows with Vaseline for ‘cool’ lip colors,” another added.
“Why do this versus putting the perfume directly on the skin?” a third asked.

“It won’t last as long as if mixed with Vaseline,” Sasha replied.
“I do this with the Vaseline that’s already a gel-like consistency. You don’t have to liquify. Just add perfume and shake,” yet another wrote.
“I have to try this,” one more said. “Amazing idea. Thanks.”
