* Experts say that you should apply perfume to your belly button
* Because it's a pulse point, it helps to radiate the scent of your fragrance
* Liv Tyler has said that she was taught by her dad to apply perfume there
* Other points to spray fragrance include your knees, elbows and feet
While most people spritz perfume onto their necks and wrists, experts say that's not all you should be doing.
In fact, you should be putting perfume on your belly button.
Steven Claisse, senior perfumer at fragrance company Takasago, told Self that the navel is useful for more than just belly piercings and advised that dabbing a few drops of perfume on the belly button can work wonders.
'Any area on your body that radiates heat will enhance a scent, and your belly button does just that,' he said.
UK-based perfume expert Ruth Mastenbroek, agrees it's one of the places optimal for your scent.
This is because perfume should be applied to pulse points, which is why it's sprayed onto necks and wrists.
The body heat coming from the pulse point on your belly button, as well as it's handy little indent, provides the perfect place for perfume.
Even Liz Tyler says that she applies perfume to her belly button. She told Into The Gloss that it helps the scent stay.
'I put little drops on my fingers and put some under my arms and in my belly button,' Tyler explained.
'My dad taught me that—if you put it where you heat up, the smell stays with you.'
It's not just your belly button however. Previously, Ms Mastenbroek told Daily Mail that behind your elbows and knees are also great points for perfume.
Another unusual place she says is great to spray fragrance is your feet and ankles, especially if they're in open shoes. Because they're moving all the time, it helps to waft the perfume around you.
So next time you go to put on perfume, remember that placement is just as important as the bottle you choose, and put some on your belly.
