Can I take a commercial cologne and add DPG to it? Would this make the fragrance last longer?

Bump would love to hear anyone experience with this because my skin just drinks the cologne up in 90 minutes

Slightly OT, but have you tried moisturizing and allowing that to dry down before spraying cologne on?

Interesting idea. Any idea how much of a difference this makes?

Yes I never really have time to apply after a shower but I use lotion every night on my fore arms and neck .. Sometimes during the day as well

Possibly the body lotion to go with it

Should make quite a bit of a difference.

Think of a dried out car tyre. If you go and apply tyre shine on it, you could sit there and literally watch the tyre drink up the tyre shine within a minute of application.

However, on a tyre that's not dried out, you can apply tyre shine, buff it down and leave a smooth matt black look without splotchiness.

Our skin is very much the same. Dry skin will tend to drink up whatever's applied on it. Moisturizing may help mitigate this to a large degree.
