Whether you’re the signature scent type or love to rotate your fragrance wardrobe, chances are you want your perfume to stick around. That could mean spritzing your clothes and hair—but not so fast. “Normal perfume is alcohol based and can be extremely drying and damaging to hair,” explains celebrity hairstylist Bryce Scarlett. “Most perfumes are made with harsh alcohols that dry out your hair and untreated dryness can cause long-term damage.”

That’s where hair perfumes come in. “A fragrance designed for your hair has specific ingredients that will not cause damage,” Scarlett says. Some are even formulated with hair-boosting ingredients to deliver silkier, shinier strands. “Developing a product with enriching ingredients was really important for me,” says Mona Kattan, co-founder of Huda Beauty and Kayali Fragrances. “For Déjà Vu White Flower | 57 Hair Mist, we incorporated castor oil, camellia oil, panthenol, and aloe vera to help condition the hair over time.”

Another perk of hair perfumes is they can be used to freshen up your strands on days when you skip shampoo. “It’s the best way to freshen up at any time, especially between washes,” Kattan says. “The great thing is that it doesn’t add weight or a ton of product to your hair like dry shampoos can, so it helps to prolong having to wash your hair while still offering conditioning agents.” Hair perfumes can also be misted on after dry shampoo, suggests Scarlett.

If you really want to take your scent up a notch, you can layer your favorite perfume with the same scent in a hair perfume. Or, you can opt to wear a hair perfume solo for a lighter touch. “Our Déjà Vu White Flower | 57 Hair Mist has as a lighter concentration of oils than of the original Déjà Vu White Flower and can act as your daily perfume if you want a softer version of the original,” Kattan says.

The best way to apply hair perfume is to spritz it on uniformly. “You don’t want to spray it too directly in any one spot,” Scarlett says. “I like to flip the hair over and mist it from at least a foot away so that it evenly distributes.” Depending on the intensity you want, you can spray a lot or a little. “For example, if you’re going to a party and will be greeting many people, you may want to spray more,” Kattan says. “Hair mist is formulated lighter than perfume so it’s difficult to go overboard.”
