    FAQs

    Start by identifying your preferred scent family (e.g., floral, woody,
    citrus, oriental) and considering the occasions when you'll be wearing
    the fragrance (e.g., casual, formal, day, night). Reading product descriptions and customer reviews can also be helpful in determining which fragrances might suit you best. You can also consider trying a sample or discovery set before committing to a full-sized bottle.

    The primary difference is the concentration of fragrance oils, which
    impacts the longevity and intensity of the scent. Eau de Parfum has the
    highest concentration (typically 15-20%), followed by Eau de Toilette
    (5-15%) and Eau de Cologne (2-4%). As a result, EDPs tend to last longer
    and have a stronger scent than EDTs and EDCs.

    Fragrance notes are the individual scents that make up a perfume's
    composition. They are typically divided into three categories: top notes, middle (or heart) notes, and base notes.

    Top notes are the initial scents you perceive and are usually lighter and more volatile.

    Middle notes emerge as the top notes dissipate, and they form the heart
    of the fragrance.

    Base notes are the longest-lasting and provide depth
    and longevity to the perfume.

    Perfume can smell differently on different people due to our unique
    body chemistry. If you have dry skin, you may want to opt for a
    stronger, more concentrated perfume as fragrance tends not to last as
    long on dry skin. If your skin is oily, a lighter concentration like eau
    de toilette may work well for you.

    Typically, lighter, fresher fragrances are suitable for daytime and
    warmer months, while heavier, richer scents are more appropriate for
    evenings and colder months. However, the best perfume for any occasion
    is the one that makes you feel comfortable and confident.

    EDT perfumes are, like all fragrances, a mixture of intensely scented oils, alcohol and a small amount of water. The concentration of an EDT fragrance is between 5% and 15%. The higher the concentration, the longer it will last. EDT perfumes are cheaper than EDP perfumes, so they remain a popular choice of perfume for many people who want to have a rich shelf of different everyday fragrances.

    Typically, eau de toilette contains around 10% fragrance oils, which create the unique notes of the chosen scent. The scents are often light and fresh, gradually fading over a few hours. Eau de Toilette creates a great everyday scent that is not intrusive or distracting. They are fresh and rich in their top notes.

    EDT perfumes: how to "wear'' them?

    For the perfect scent, the best way to breathe eau de toilette is to spray it on your clothes, like drawing a small triangle. It is advisable to spray from the top of the hair towards the chest and finish at the end of the outer garment. The most important thing is to feel the harmony and choose a fragrance that will make you feel better for the day. If the eau de toilette you choose is volatile (lower concentration percentage), the ritual of refreshing yourself with a pleasant scent during the day can become a pleasant refreshment habit.

    To choose the right scent, you should consider how long you want the scent to last. For example, if you prefer daytime scents or if you work in an office environment, eau de toilette will be a more comfortable choice than a high concentration perfume. It is also advisable to take into account your personal expectations and skin chemistry. As eau de toilette reacts differently on everyone's skin, it is important to test the scent. EDT perfumes are a refreshing everyday choice. Their composition makes them ideal for layering and wearing during the summer season and in more conservative environments.

    What is typical of EDT perfumes?

    In the world of perfumery, the abbreviation EDT stands for Eau de Toilette. As spray perfumes are categorised according to fragrance content, EDT sits between the lighter EDC and EDP, as an intermediate, perhaps the most popular option.

    Its composition can vary widely, but EDTs usually contain between 5 and 15% fragrance oils or flavourings. This concentration means that the use of Eau de Toilette is usually focused on everyday wear and everyday elegance. These perfumes are also affordable. You can also choose from a wide range of fragrances online.

    EDT perfumes usually have a top note, which is what you smell when you spray the perfume or just feel it. Their top note is usually bright and lively, so it leaves an immediate impression of one kind or another. Over time, the middle notes become more and more apparent, revealing the underlying character and complexity of the fragrance. Finally, the base notes emerge, which last the longest.
