Incidental extrait adherer over here! And funnily enough: it happens to be Voyage d'Hermès which is my personal staple perfume right now! I only found out today that it is an extrait perfume as it never once bothered me or anyone else in my surroundings going by public response probably because it's just such a beautifully well-rounded and layered palet of aromas and I always use my fragrances in moderation anyway =)
I like the highest concentration possible, which is why i just let my fragrance evaporate, scrape what’s left out of the bottle, and rub the delicious scent flakes on my body. My house is in foreclosure btw
My daughter used J’adore Eau De Parfum (Christian Dior ) when she was a Flight Attendant ( year 2000), as it was a mandatory for them to wear perfume that will last for several hours. I myself wear it too ever since. I like it’s scent and i don’t get a headache, unlike the other scents I’ve tried. Another one I wear is Davidoff Cool Water for women.
Wow, they had to wear perfume? That's risky with all the people out there who are sensitive to concentrated scents. They're stuck on a plane with a bunch of people wearing perfume.
I grew up knowing the hierarchy based on concentration starts with Parfum, Eau de Parfum, Eau de Toilette and lastly Eau de Cologne. Extrait is something I've never known to exists. I learned something new today. Thanks!
@@FragranceBros Hey, fragrance bro. Nice video! But hey I was wondering where some cost effective places to shop for cologne samples would be? Thanks again bro!
Thanks Dude. Very thorough, clear and concise explanation. I'm an EDT kind of guy, but after having watched this video I'm going to begin considering EDP.
I always thought eau de toilette was the weakest until recently. Thanks for the great explanation as well as the explanation of the word origin of toilette.
Thank you so much for the breakdown bro. I know this video seven years old but I appreciate it. I started getting into perfumes or perfumes. However, you wanna call it and the other word that I can’t even pronounce. I know it’s cologne colognes are different. It’s based on concentration and that’s why the name is different so thank you so much. This video was so helpful.
I wear vanilla or strawberry extract from the kitchen. Put 5/6 drops on palm rub it up and then rub the hands on clothes. Lasts for a 2 /3 hours indoors and gets me through the situation. Big benefit is that I don't pay a penny for them at least for now. Mom buys them for recipes 😂
the way it was explained to me was that you should apply 'parfum' early in the day and the 'toilette' should be used to freshen up as needed throughout the day.
I bought a lot of eau de toilette years ago but I just started getting into parfums. With the exception Reb'l Fleur by Rihanna, I've noticed the parfum oils last a lot longer.
I mostly wear eau de cologne from Santa Maria Novella. The scent lasts a very long time. I sprayed Peau d'Espagne on my wrist, and I was still exuding its scent after 8 hours. It's a good niche brand.
Everything in my collection besides Burberry Hero is an eau de parfum. Hero also comes in an EDP, but I didn't know that when I went shopping and ended up with a bottle of EDT. It's a lovely fragrance, but I wish I got the more concentrated version for better performance. I'd like to start looking into parfums and extrait de parfums as well, but they tend to be pricier for obvious reasons.
Loved the way you explained in detail on each category. I have not come across of "extrait"...not sure if I have spelt it correctly but would love to try out one.
Thanks a lot. That was truly an informative review. Regarding toillette 😁😁 My brother has just given me a gift which is a perfume "eau du toillette" which is called "Silver Scent" and then when I read cover I told myself "OMG!!! That's a perfume used for toilets?! What does that "eau du toillette" really mean?! Then, I end up here and thanks again, you clarified it and it's fine with me to use them going to work. New sub for sure.
There are alot of misconceptions about EDT vs EDP Some confuse EDP for pure perfume. I've just had a friend say "EDT is for under 30 year olds. To flatter ego need to get the best!" Fact is an EDP is not necessarily better than a EDT, Projection of an EDP can be poor, on the other hand some EDT can last for very along time especially if it is a synthetic type of fragrance.
great video. i can tell alot of effort went into gathering and organizing all the info conveyed. Thanks. I usually go for EDP as a guy because i feel like it represents the quality of the composition. and by quality i dont mean longevity. thats a given. by quality i mean, the perfumer behind it, has done such an outstanding job, or is so knowledgeable that knows including more parfum oil will not ruin the scent he was going for. for example Dior Sauvage. one of the reasons i dont like it is because its not EDP. but for a second imagine if the same Sauvage had more parfum oil to alcohol ratio. it would smell pretty bad. it would be harshly metallic and the synthetic ambroxin will stand out as a sour thumb just awkwardly. think about it. its not about how it performs well as edt and last longer than some EDPs out there. we are not talking about absolute numbers. we are talking about compositions as they are. some fragrances are crafted or mastered with having like a 80% alcohol dilution in mind. so the perfumer will start off knowing this composition is gonna smell like alcohol 80%, or 60%. it matters people.
Thank you so much for educating me on the differences of the concentrate of perfume. I'm looking for some that will last me at least 5 to 8 hours when I'm working. So Eau de Parfum is the best one to get in my situation right?
Check out Genre Perfumes on facebook. It's a small clone house that only does parfum concentration and they're pretty close to the originals. All for $50 or less verses paying $100 plus for a lot of the name brand originals.
@@TalkingIsh100 i know, it's cheaper and all, i get it, but don;t support clones, it just makes cloning more common and accepted, and it should never be
@@benis9965 it should be because these companies need pressure to force them to lower the outrageous prices. There's ZERO justification for $350-$450 for a 100ml bottle I don't care what's in it..
@@benis9965 $100 is totally justified for something like creed $400 is not.. I also have a feeling that as prices go up the quality of the ingredients still manage to go down.
I will be looking for Eau de Parfum (EDP) only from henceforth. Also as each one gets stronger in concentration, this is reflected in the price. I am unsure if this was mentioned in the video.
Axe and other lower concentration fragrances would be put in a category called “Eau De Fraiche” which is a less known and far less advertised subcategory of fragrance concentration.
@Fragrance Bros. eau de cologne is alot less strong and less intense than it's edt or edp counterparts and for some people that's good since people can be sensitive to certain fragrances. tommy bahama is an eau de cologne and i love that because it's not too much for the heat. if it wears off just reapply.
I'm not sure about all of the history, but growing up in Europe eau de toilet is lighter parfume for women, eau de Cologne is for men and eau de parfume which has less alcohol, last longer, and is more expensive could be for women or pour homme meaning for men.
I just want to add to this video... After reformulations we have a new standard.. EDT changes to EDC... the extreme or parfum version becomes the EDT, and the parfum becomes the edp... haha
@@eldorado4542 I think, I will never ever buy a bottle of EDT again. For me, EDT are almost as weak as bottles of fake or "Imitation" fragrances. 😅 So, if I am paying for a real bottle, might as eell pay a bit more and get a stronger EDP.
Watching in 2021. Thanks for the breakdown of Cologne, Toilette and Parfum. Btw, it's properly pronounced "parfahm", not parfoom. But anyway, I do have a question. Is using a body spray deodorant such as Axe for underarms, and couple sprays of eau du parfum on say forearms, at same time, not right to do..? If you only use eau du parfum, but nothing for underarms, then...?
Hollister So.Cal is Eau De Cologne and ive worn it since HS, and i bought my last bottle of it two years ago for nostalgia purposes and hardly wear it lol i have small collection (25) of fragrances and have so many better options. -TBH EDP and Parfumes on my skin only do well when its colled.
I'm curious how the concentrations tend to relate to the prices. Is EDT often a better *value* than EDP? Or the other way around? Technically, if the EDP had twice the concentration of the EDT, you could dilute the EDP half and half with water and have twice as much EDT.
Thank you so much for sharing!! I did go to the website you mention and bought my son his birthday 🎁 president. I own both the Eau de Toilette and Eau de perfume and I love them both, didn’t know the difference that’s why I searched for it. I really appreciate this video 🤩👏🏻
Is it common for a fragrance to lose it's power over years of being in the bottle? I got a cologne like 6 years ago that was strong for a few hours and now it's like an hour and half or less.
This comment is kinda late but on the bottom of the perfume or where the text is there is like a small little drawn container that says how long the perfume lasts ( its written in months example mine is 36M )
Yes, especially if it is stored in a place where it is exposed to sunlight or hot temperatures. I've heard people recommend you put your perfumes in the fridge if your house's temperature exceeds 75°F
Hi, I'm a beginner to this stuff. So everywhere I go body spray, perfume, deodrent are what available. So please recommend which is better, which last longer, which is not harmful to the skins. It would be very kind if you could reply. Thank you.
Neck is the best on the front sides good place is also behind the ears and if you want to last longer you can spary it on the clothes but i prefere on the skin
Hi & thank you for sharing this video,I found your information most informative,thanks to you I now know more about this subject & will look into the different types you talked about ;-).
All the cologne I buy I buy them at Nordstrom and I recently bought a yvs saint Laurent eau de parfume but I my self can't really smell it while I'm wearing it but people tell me it's really strong I find that really wierd but alright as long as I smell good
I loved extrait prefume because you just need a little bit, and it long you all day. Can't get them anymore now a day. Barely find them on Ebay but will cost you a hand and a leg.
