Have you ever noticed that after wearing a scent for a while, even if not on consecutive days, you begin to lose the ability to detect some of its notes? I decided to try a little experiment by inverting my bottle gently a few times to mix it up before I sprayed it on myself. Each time I've done this I've noticed two things:
1) I detect more of the notes in the fragrance than I normally would if I had not shaken my bottle. Little subtleties in the fragrance begin to come out giving a fuller representation of the entire composition of the fragrance.
2) The sillage and longevity both seem to decline. The fragrance doesn't project as much as I'm use to, nor does it seem to stick around as long.
Any thoughts on this? Has anyone experienced something similar??

Could be an olfactory placebo effect that causes you to detect more notes. Or not. Maybe I will try it.
