P A R F U M P L U S 20 EAU DE TOILETTE This perfume category is for fragrances with essential oil or “perfume extract” concentrations of between 5 to 15%. It is a light formula and usually in spray bottles. Surprisingly, it is the most popular type of fragrance, and you often buy “perfume” thinking it is eau de parfum and it is actually eau de toilette. And the general belief is that normally to the untrained nose, the eau de perfume and eau de toilette can be very very similar and so the price point makes the choice easier! It is much more affordable than Eau de Parfum, and can last 2 - 4 hours. Due to the low combination of essential oils and high percentage of alcohol, it tends to dissipate quickly. This is the perfume category with the next highest concentration of oils with around 15 to 20% essential oils or “perfume extract” in the fragrance blend. It is less expensive than perfume. It has slightly more alcohol and water in the ingredients, however, it still has a high level of perfume oils. It can last 6 to 8 hours. Even though it has a slightly higher alcohol content, it is still recommended for people with sensitive skin. EAU DE COLOGNE The category known as Eau de Cologne is one of the lightest fragrance concentrations with essential oils or “perfume extract” of between 2 to 4%. It is often thought of as a masculine formula, however, there are feminine eau de colognes as well. They often come in large bottles as you tend to need more of it and will require regular applications. It can last up to 2 hours and is fairly inexpensive. EAU DE PERFUME / EAU DE PARFUM
