Does skin type really affect how cologne smells?

I’ve heard that dry skin can make cologne fade faster, while oily skin amplifies certain notes. Anyone else experienced this? How do you adjust your fragrance choice based on your skin type?

I’ve noticed that with dry skin, fragrances tend to evaporate quicker, so I lean towards richer, deeper scents like vanilla or sandalwood—they seem to stick around longer. For oily skin, lighter citrus or green notes work better since they don’t get overpowered. Testing on your skin throughout the day really helps nail the right match.

Since dry skin lacks natural oils, consider moisturizing before applying cologne to help the fragrance adhere better. For oily skin, citrus and light florals balance the natural oils without becoming overwhelming. Always test over several hours to see how the scent evolves on your skin.
