4 kinds of concentrated scents


Confuse of the different scents of a perfume/cologne? Read this so you’ll know what to use in a party or date.

  1. PERFUME. The strongest fragrance available. Use sparingly because its fragrance lasts longer-typically up to six hours, depending on the skin type.
  2. EAU DE PARFUM. Lighter than perfume, with an 8-15 % concentration. This kind is less expensive and fragrance lasts from 3-5 hours.
  3. EAU DE TOILETTE. Thus fragrance is most suitable for everyday use. It’s lighter and can last up to 4 hours.
  4. EAU DE COLOGNE. Often referred to as cologne, this kind has the greatest dilution of fragrances. With a concentration of 3-5 %, it lasts for up to 2 hours.
