Fragrances come in different types, each with unique characteristics. These differences often relate to the concentration of fragrance oils in each product, affecting how long they last on the skin. To help you choose the right one for any occasion, fragrance expert Cesar Veiga explains the main distinctions between Eau de Parfum, Perfume, Body Splash, and Deodorant Cologne. Let’s dive in and find out how to choose the best fragrance for every moment of your routine!
Perfume
Also known as Parfum, this type has the highest concentration of fragrance oils, making it intense and long-lasting. Just a few sprays of perfume can create a bold, attention-grabbing scent, making it perfect for special occasions when you want to stand out and leave a fragrant trail wherever you go.
If you love an elegant, long-lasting fragrance, try Lily Le Parfum, a luxurious scent combining Lily oil with pure jasmine, daffodil, gardenia, sandalwood, and Bourbon vanilla.
Eau de Parfum (EDP)
Eau de Parfum is a step down from perfume in terms of concentration, but it still provides a rich, long-lasting scent. It’s ideal for those who love to make a statement, whether for everyday wear or special events. Eau de Parfum is known for its strong fragrance, lasting anywhere from 6 to 8 hours, depending on the weather and how much you apply.
Cologne
A more affordable option, a Cologne offers a lighter fragrance concentration, similar to Eau de Toilette, but with added deodorizing benefits. It’s ideal for daily use—think workdays or casual events—where you want a pleasant, subtle fragrance without overpowering those around you. Deodorant colognes are incredibly popular in Brazil, thanks to their balanced scent and accessibility.
Body Splash
Also referred to as Cologne, Body Splash is the lightest and most refreshing option, designed for generous application throughout the day. With a low concentration of fragrance, it’s perfect for hot summer days or laid-back occasions when you want to feel fresh without an intense scent. Body Splash helps extend the feeling of a refreshing shower, offering a delicate fragrance and a deodorizing effect.
