What is the difference between EDP and EDT?

Here at The Fragrance Shop we like to ensure our customers choose the optimum product to fulfil their needs, so we have compiled this useful guide to help you make an informed decision on which is the best product to buy. Concentrations: Strengths and Value for Money Fragrance products consist of a concentration of perfume oils in a solvent (usually alcohol). The amount of perfume oil in a fragrance dictates whether it is an Eau de Parfum, an Eau de Toilette, an Eau de Cologne and so on. It also dictates how long a fragrance product will last on the skin and, of course, its price! To help explain the difference in strength, we have listed below the types of fragrance products, their concentrations and the average time it takes for the scent to evaporate. Perfume 5%-30% concentration of perfume oil 6 - 8 hours Eau de Parfum or EDP 8%-15% concentration of perfume oil 5 - 7 hours Eau de Toilette or EDT 4%-8% concentration of perfume oil 4 - 6 hours Eau de Cologne or EDC / Aftershave 3%-5% concentration of perfume oil 2 - 3 hours The price of a fragrance product will depend on its strength (% of perfume oil) as well as the bottle size. For example, a 30 ml Eau de Parfum bottle will usually cost more than a 30 ml Eau de Toilette as it is stronger. The more alcohol a product contains, the quicker its scent will evaporate. Aftershave has the highest alcohol content. Although an Eau de Toilette is cheaper, it is not necessarily more economical, as it will not last as long. EDT is the most popular and affordable concentration available. Fragrances should be kept away from heat and light. Storing fragrance in the fluctuating temperatures and humidity of a bathroom will cause a scent to degrade rapidly. Identical fragrances may smell differently and also last longer when applied to some peoples' skin than others, this is because of the chemical make up and balance of our skin
