Office Perfume Etiquette – Recommended Application Areas and Amounts for Men Working in Japan

Introduction:

This article provides information on using perfume for men who are concerned about sweating, having a higher body temperature, and producing more sebum, especially in the office environment. I explain the appropriate areas and amounts for perfume application to help you maintain a comfortable office life.

Differences in Perfume Application between Japan and Other Countries
In Japan, it is common to apply perfume to the ankles and waist (abdominal area). This method is considered suitable for Japanese men’s physical characteristics and lifestyle. In contrast, in other countries, it is more common to apply perfume to the neck and arms.

Recommended Perfume Application Areas
Ankles
Applying perfume to the ankles is a common method in Japan, as the sebum production is low, making the scent long-lasting. Additionally, applying perfume to the ankles creates a subtle scent that spreads around as you walk.

Waist (Abdominal Area)
Applying perfume to the waist (abdominal area) is not very common but can be recommended for those concerned about body odor. Be careful not to make the scent too strong. Since this area has relatively low sebum secretion, the scent tends to last longer. However, as the scent takes longer to rise, it is more effective when combined with other areas.

Perfume Amount
Appropriate Amount for Ankles
One spray on the left ankle and one on the right, for a total of two sprays, is suitable. This amount creates a modest scent that does not become excessive in the office environment, and the appropriate level of fragrance is conveyed to those around you.

Adjusting the Amount of Perfume
The type of perfume, the strength of the scent, and personal preferences may require adjustments. Experiment to find the optimal amount for yourself. Take into account the opinions of those around you and determine the appropriate amount.

Using Perfume as a Measure Against Body Odor
Men tend to sweat more and have a higher body temperature, which can cause concerns about body odor. Using perfume appropriately can help cover body odor, allowing you to spend time in the office with confidence. However, relying solely on perfume is not enough; proper laundry and clean clothing are also essential.

Office Manners
When using perfume in the office, it is essential to be considerate of others. Avoid using strong scents or excessive amounts, and use perfume in the appropriate areas and amounts. If there are people with perfume allergies or those sensitive to scents, consider using methods that take their needs into account.


Conclusion:

Choosing the appropriate application areas and amounts is essential for using perfume in the office. Apply perfume to areas suitable for Japan, such as the ankles and waist (abdominal area), and ensure that a moderate scent reaches those around you. While using perfume as a measure against body odor can be considered, maintaining clean habits is also crucial. Use perfume appropriately to enjoy a comfortable office life.
