Having started my journery to being a beauty sales rep, I deemed it fit to research more on fragrances so I could best recommend to my clients(they mean a lot to me)

The thing is Fragrances are essentially a mix of alcohol (ethanol), water and scented oils – or in some cases, just ethanol and those precious oils. The rule of thumb is that the higher the concentration of those oils, the longer a scent lasts on the skin. And the more expensive it’s likely to be, too.

The four kinds of perfume available are.

Eau de Cologne
This has a lower concentration.

Eau de Toilette
This has a higher concentration than cologne.

Eau de Parfum
This has a higher concentration Toilette

[b]Perfume
[/b]Perfume is 15 to 30 percent perfume oil mixed with alcohol. Because it contains such a high percentage of perfume oil, it is far more expensive than Eau de Cologne, Eau de Toilette, or Eau de Parfum. Parfum is really for after-dark, for special occasions – weddings, parties – rather than for everyday; accordingly, these true perfumes often available in glass-stoppered bottles for dabbing, rather than the sprays and spritzers which lower concentrations tend to come in – making for a pleasurable ritual.
