Between Parfum ( French ) and Perfume ( English ) , just two different languages. But there are differences between the different strengths of perfume...Please see the below, it is quite interesting!





Perfume, Eau de Parfum, Eau de Toilette and Eau de cologne.:





- Perfume, also called extract or extrait perfume, can include 15-40% perfume concentrates. This is the purest form of scented product and is the most expensive as a result.





- Eau de parfum contains about 7-15% perfume concentrates. This is the most popular and common form of perfume. It provides a long-lasting fragrance and generally doesn't cost as much as extract perfume.





- Eau de toilette has around 1-6% perfume concentrates. This makes for a light scent that doesn't linger as long as the more intense versions. It was originally intended to be a refreshing body splash to help people wake up in the morning.





- Eau de cologne is sometimes used interchangeably with the term eau de toilette. However, the concoction began as the name of a light, fresh fragrance mixed with citrus oils and was made popular by Napoleon. Some perfumers today have a version of this called eau fraiche.





Now that you have your scents straight, we're sure you'll smell like a rose all day!





and as an advice : Don't wear perfume in the garden - unless you want to be pollinated by bees.
Nothing but the name
