Sometimes, just a few hours after applying, our favorite scent begins to fade. But did you know that the longevity of a perfume doesn’t only depend on the brand? Many factors influence it, ranging from the type of perfume, how it's applied, to our individual body conditions. Therefore, it’s very important to know how to choose and use perfume correctly.
Perfumes themselves consist of several types, from the strongest like Extrait de Parfum, to the lighter ones like Eau de Cologne. Each type of perfume has different characteristics and aroma longevity. The choice of perfume type can be adjusted to your needs and daily activities.
In this article, we will discuss various types of perfumes based on their aroma concentration levels, provide recommendations for long-lasting perfumes for men and women, and share tips to make the scent of your perfume last all day. Let’s dive into the further details summarized by KapanLagi.com on Wednesday (9/4)!
1. Perfume (Extrait de Parfum): Perfume with the Highest Concentration
With a concentration of fragrance oil ranging from 20% to 40%, this perfume offers extraordinary longevity that can last over 24 hours. Its excellence lies in its strong intensity, making it the perfect choice for special events or evenings. The aroma produced is very sharp and capable of leaving a deep impression on every occasion. Highly recommended for both men and women who desire a perfume that is not only long-lasting but also ready to accompany them in important meetings or memorable evening events.
2. Eau de Parfum (EDP): Perfume with Medium Concentration
With a fragrance oil concentration between 15% and 20%, Eau de Parfum (EDP) promises a stunning aroma longevity, lasting between 6 to 8 hours. EDP is the perfect choice for those who want a balance between lasting fragrance and a non-overpowering scent, making it ideal for various occasions, both daily and formal events. For women who desire a long-lasting yet soft aroma, and for men seeking a refreshing masculine touch, EDP is a must-try choice!
3. Eau de Toilette (EDT): A Light Perfume Choice for Everyday Use
With a fragrance oil concentration between 5% and 15%, EDT offers a fresh and light scent, perfect for accompanying your activities throughout the day, whether at the office or while relaxing. This aroma can last between 4 to 6 hours, making it an ideal choice for both men and women who want a perfume that is not too overpowering, especially in hot weather. So, if you are looking for a refreshing scent suitable for daily activities, EDT is the right choice!
4. Eau de Cologne (EDC): A Light Perfume with Short Longevity
With a fragrance oil concentration ranging from 2% to 4%, Eau de Cologne (EDC) offers a soft and refreshing scent, ideal for accompanying activities in the sunlight. Although its longevity is only about 2 to 3 hours, the resulting aroma is not overwhelming, making it very suitable for men seeking a light freshness or women needing a perfume for brief moments. EDC is the perfect choice to add a boost on bright days!
5. How to Make Perfume Last Longer: Tips to Maximize the Aroma
- Use moisturizer before perfume: Moist skin helps the perfume adhere better and last longer, so make sure your skin is well-hydrated.
- Apply perfume on pulse points: Often referred to as "pulse points," areas like the wrists, behind the ears, and neck are good places to spray perfume because the higher body temperature in those areas helps diffuse the scent.
- Avoid rubbing the perfume after spraying: Rubbing the perfume will break down the fragrance molecules and reduce its longevity. It’s best to let the perfume dry on its own.
- Use perfume on clothing and hair: With a light spray on clothing or hair (avoid sensitive materials), the scent of the perfume can last longer without irritating the skin.
