Best Answer

The main garment, worn by both women and men, was the haluk or tunic. This was made of two rectangular pieces of cloth joined in a long seam along the top of the arms, with a hole left for the head to go through. It also had a seam running down both sides, with holes left for the arms.

The haluk could be bunched up at the shoulders, with a clip or a tip-loop, or tucked at the waist. It was worn with a belt, leather or metal, the decoration depending on how wealthy the person was.

A cloak was often worn over the haluk. The tzittzit* of the cloak were often decorated. In public, women covered their heads with a kerchief. Veiling, like the Muslim Niqab or Burqa was not practiced.

*Tzittzit are "fringes" or "tassels" worn by Jewish men on the corners of four-cornered garments. Numbers 15:38: "Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, that they shall make themselves fringes on the corners of their garments throughout their generations, and they shall put on the corner fringe a blue thread." and "You shall make yourself twisted threads, on the four corners of your garment with which you cover yourself."(Deuteronomy 22:12).

Wrists, neck and perhaps clothing- it depends how much you wanted to use. When spraying on the wrists (underside of the wrist), only spray one wrist, and then rub the other against it, to save wastage.
