Ok try this : get a cottonball and spray there your perfume (not too many, an ample amount of it is good enough) and put it in the middle of your bra. Why? because of our body's natural heat, the perfume in the cottonball will be fully distributed in the upper part of your body, and it the perfume will last longer, it could last a whole day. Then spray the perfume in the parts of your body that has 'heating points' - the back of your ear and neck and in your pulse. Don't simply spray it in your body, because eventually it will fade away. And try having a lotion, powder and perfume with one scent (i believe in beauty stores there's like that, example Avon's has a set of perfumes with powder. lotion and perfume). The logic in here is to last the scent for the whole day. (of course when you put lotion in your body, and powder in your face plus the perfume itself then the smell would really last longer). And buy perfumes in oil based, because oil could make the scent last longer.I hope I could somehow help you.That's all!

Some perfumes react differently with your skin than others. There are some that I love to smell but can't wear because they fade almost immediately. There are others that stick to my skin for days - despite showering and scrubbing. I have found that I can wear powdery or floral scents.
Try purchasing the parfum version (not the eau de toilette) of your favorite scent as the parfum is the strongest, most concentrated scent. Apply the parfum to your wrists and your neck and any other "pulse points". I sometimes spray the perfume in front of me and walk into it. Make sure that you don't spray your clothing instead of your skin (it can cause your clothing to discolor).
My other advice would be to experiment with scent. Some fragrances change when they have been on your skin. Prada is a strong scent when I put it on but after five or ten minutes it starts to become softer and more powdery. You can make an occasional trip to the perfume counter at the department store and spray on a new fragrance. See how it smells an hour later and then several hours later. You'll know you've found a winner when mid afternoon you can still smell a little of your perfume on your wrist and you like the way it smells. I can still smell certain perfumes when I shower the next day. I hope this helps!

Try to have some moisturizer before you put your perfume on. It makes the smell more permanent. Don't forget that the moisturizer must be fragrance free or have the same fragrance with your perfume. You'll see it will make a difference.

your olfactory neurons are used to the smell that is why you can't smell your own perfume after some time
the prime areas to spray or dab your perfume is along the pulse in your neck and wrists, the pulsing body heat will keep dispersing the fragrance
and be sure that what you are using is indeed perfume not eau de toilette or cologne

Are you putting it on your pressure points? Ie: inside elbows, behind ears, inside of wrist, behind knees. It could be that the parfume just isn't a strong one, so it fades quickly. Often for me, when I buy a weak parfume, I will sprits it on my clothing along with my skin. It seems to hang to the clothing better. My parfume typically will stay fragrant for the entire day.

i have learned that the scent rises...so start spritzing behind your knees, which are one of your pulse points, and move upward...
