Are Hot Topic perfumes (sprays and eau de toilettes) pretty good???

because i wonder if theyre just as good as those expensive perfumes and sprays. also, would anyone label you as ';cheap'; or something if you wear hot topic perfumes?Are Hot Topic perfumes (sprays and eau de toilettes) pretty good???
I only really buy some of my clothes from there but I have smelt some of the perfurmes and I liked some of them. And if you must know, I wear Jean Phillipe passion %26amp; love it.Are Hot Topic perfumes (sprays and eau de toilettes) pretty good???
Yeah, I have one their sprays. The perfume smells good, but I'm not into the hot topic fashion.

Why don't women wear perfumes like Eau de Jelly Donut?

Cuz it ain't all about you - okay - I'm with ya - throw a damn smell on like Eau de Chocolate cream and I'm on ya like white on rice, but they seem to think that being classy is better - in their favor, they are right - it works best in most situations.Why don't women wear perfumes like Eau de Jelly Donut?

Pls tell me whats the difference between eau de toilette,perfumes,oud,itr,scen鈥?etc..Which country is no.1?

Also tell which is no.1 country in manufacturing perfumes and which are the countries following it?


Also,what is fl.oz. written on perfmes bottles mean?


Thanks in advance.Pls tell me whats the difference between eau de toilette,perfumes,oud,itr,scen鈥?etc..Which country is no.1?
Perfume


The most concentrated form of fragrance oil (and the most expensive), perfume is the strongest and longest-lasting of fragrance forms and may contain several hundred ingredients. It contains 20 to 50 percent perfume compound.





Eau de parfum


An alcoholic perfume solution containing 10 to 15 percent of perfume compound.





Eau de toilette (cologne)


Cologne is a light form of a specific fragrance with a 3 to 8 percent concentration of perfume compound in an alcohol water base. Cologne is less concentrated that Eau de Parfum. It is created with a lighter concentration of fragrance oil, and is ideal for a more subtle impression.





Moisturizing perfume mist


A moisturizing perfume mist is a fragrance that does not contain alcohol. It is a spray that contains oil and leaves skin with a silky smooth veil of perfumed moisturizers. It is ideal to wear in the warm weather because it is less drying to the skin.





Natural spray


A non-aerosol spray generated by pump action to produce a delicate misting of fragrance.





fl.oz is measurement of perfume like litres,or mls.





i dont know the answer to the worlds no.1 but im guessing france.

What are perfume oils and body sprays for, and how are they different from eau de toilette and eau de cologne?

Perfume oils are oil-based fragrances that usually come in a roller bottle for skin application. (For the base- think oily oils and waxes like jojoba, fractionated coconut oil, sweet almond; not essential oils, which are a whole nother animal.)


Body sprays and spritzers are extremely diluted fragrances that are water and alcohol based. Great for warmer and/or humid weather.


Eau de parfum is the most concentrated of the typical perfumes we buy, with eau de toilette and eau de cologne coming next, in order.


In general, the cooler the weather the more intense the fragrance you can wear.What are perfume oils and body sprays for, and how are they different from eau de toilette and eau de cologne?
perfume oils stick to your skin last longer and body spray it more to a mist lite smell depend how much you spray on you and the smell can go away. The eau de toilette more stronger smell and cologne it stronge but bigger bottle.What are perfume oils and body sprays for, and how are they different from eau de toilette and eau de cologne?
shes rite, how old are u man? u use them to smell better
Perfume is a mixture of fragrant essential oils and aroma compounds, fixatives, and solvents used to give the human body, objects, and living spaces a pleasant smell. The amount and type of solvent mix with the fragrance oil dictates whether a perfume is considered a perfume extract, Eau de parfum, Eau de toilette, or Eau de Cologne.

Why do perfumes say ';eau de toilette'; on them?

stupid question i know but i've always wondered why perfumes and body sprays say ';eau de toilette'; on them. from what i've learned in french class that mean toilet water right?


anyway if you could let me know why in the world they say that it would be very helpful.Why do perfumes say ';eau de toilette'; on them?
It is the type of perfume. Eau de toilette means it is a lighter, less concentrated fragrance, doesn't last very long, and is also less expensive. An eau de parfum is highly concentrated, lasts longer, and therefore, more expensive.














I hope this helps!Why do perfumes say ';eau de toilette'; on them?
If you have ever been in a fine restaurant, or banquet in the states there will be a servant in the bathroom with oils, colognes, and perfumes, combs, brushes, and soaps. He or She will service you as you wash your hands and perfume yourself before returning to your dinner, or banquet. Toilette, in French does not actually mean ';commode'; like it does in English. Toilette means restroom, and the restroom is not a urinal, and a poop stained commode, but is a clean, fragrant, and luxurious experience, which requires a large tip just like the rest of France.
It means toilet water. Not literally though, implying the fact that the original perfume scent is mixed with water to make it dilute (less strong) and usually the smells wear of pretty fast. All of my perfumes say 'eau de parfume' meaning perfume water, not concentrated. Eau french word for water, de french work for of, toillette french for toilet, and pafrume french for perfume.
Literally translated, I'm sure that is correct.


A pure perfume is a concentrated oil. Alcohol is added to dilute it. The stronger perfumes- which are considered better quality- are not eau de toilette. Eau de Toilette is the ';watered down version';


I think ';toilet water'; is like saying, bathroom water- or a lighter, fresher version of perfume.
If it says eau de toilet it isnt perfume, its eau de toilet. there is three different types of scents...eau de toilet, which is the least stong...more drowned out with water, and doesnt last long...then there is perfume, which is stronger, and lasts longer, and then there is cologne, which isnt just for men, it is just a scent that has the least amount of water, and it lasts longer, and is very strong...hope this clears it up:)
you are correct- toilet water.





It is the lesser expensive version of the perfume. Expensive designer fragrances will sometimes be offered in toilet water or the more expensive perfume version.





The difference is the concentration of the perfume, or the strength. A little perfume goes much further than a lot of toilet water.





Hit me with a best answer if you liked this! PLEASE!
This has to do with the concentration of the perfume.





The different concentrations include ';eau de cologne'; ';eau de toilette'; and ';eau de parfum'; to name a few.





Translated literally, it means ';water for washing and dressing';
it means perfume in french, so does ';parfum';, but eau de toilette is what parfume has always been called. it doesnt mean toilet water. toilette refers more to ';toiletries'; that to ';toilets'; a better translation would be like grooming water, not toilet water.
they say ';water of the toilet'; to mean like water you put on in the bathroom. like body spray! i know a ton of people already said that, but i HAD to answer. we spent a whole day in french class about this. our teacher gets sidetracked. :)
Because when it says eau de toilette then that means it doesnt stay as long as the perfume does, usually when it says eau de parfume then the perfume lasts longer but the toilette doesnt.
Eau is water - eau de toillette is french for 'this perfume isnt very concented'





translation sounds weird





water of toilet





toilet water?
it says eau de toilette but it basically means the same thing as eau de parfum.
in french it means ';dispose not toilett';


they speak backwards kind of like espanole


so dont throw it away in the toilett!!!
It means it is more of a body splash, notice it never has a pump/spray nozzle on top? It is not as concentrated.
eau de toilette is basically a less concentrated version of perfume so it is not as strong


xoxo
eau can mean water or cologne while toilette besides toilet means grooming
Haha. It seems they got the perfume out from the bath.
LOL really? I didn't know that either. I always wanted to know that too. please We need some translation.
i think because the toilet smells and this is what you wear to deal with that.
they mean something along the lines of, ';oder of bathroom (or restroom';
Trust me, i'm french, french friends, and not even we know...
lol french for it smells horrible! French people hate Americans that is just a way of them getting back at us jk
b/c its french.
hahahaha... I dont have an answer to your question but it made me laugh.

    What is the difference between Eau de cologne, Eau de toilette, and After-shave? Deodorant and perfume?

    I often wonder if Eau De Toilette is meant to be used as an after-shave lotion (to be applied on one's face after a shave) or as a deodorant (to be applied on one's body, under-arms, etc.). Similarly whats the difference between an Eau De Cologne and Eau de toilette?What is the difference between Eau de cologne, Eau de toilette, and After-shave? Deodorant and perfume?
    Eau de Cologne (French for ';water of Cologne';, K枚lnisch Wasser in German) is a type of light perfume that originated in Cologne, Germany and is defined by its typical concentration of about 2-5% essential oils.





    Eau de toilette is a lighter version of eau de perfume. Lighter means it contains more alcohol, whereas perfume contains more fragrance.





    Perfume is a mixture of fragrant essential oils and aroma compounds, fixatives, and solvents used to give the human body, objects, and living spaces a pleasant smell.





    Deodorants are substances applied to the body, most frequently the armpits, to reduce the body odor caused by the bacterial breakdown of perspiration. A subgroup of deodorants are ';antiperspirants';, which prevent odor and reduce sweat produced by parts of the body.





    Aftershave is a lotion, gel, or liquid used mainly by men after they have finished shaving. It may contain an antiseptic agent such as alcohol to prevent infection from cuts as well as numb damaged skin, a perfume to enhance scent, and a moisturizer to soften the skin. An alcohol-based, fragrence-free astringent can be used as an aftershave. It is said that the alcohol in the aftershave closes pores in the skin and prevents irritation (';razor burn';). Aftershaves are also sometimes mistakenly referred to as Eau de Cologne.What is the difference between Eau de cologne, Eau de toilette, and After-shave? Deodorant and perfume?
    Eau de cologne is stronger than eau de toilette. They both are types of perfume or cologne. After-shave is suppose to be a gel, cream, or lotion that is applied after shaving. Eau de cologne and eau de toilette are applied by spritzing it onto hair, wrists, and/or neck. Depends how strong you want it to be.

    Why are colognes and perfumes called ';eau de toilette?

    this label, and others like eau de parfum, refer to the concentration of scent. eau do toilette had about a one to six percent concentration so it's more light and doesn't linger as long and is more like a strong body splash. And eau do parfum is a more potent mixture and ';perfume'; is the most potent, and expensive of the bunch.





    Basically, it's a scale for scent concentrationWhy are colognes and perfumes called ';eau de toilette?
    I have seen that on lots of perfume, I think that is french for perfume. See a french dictionary. Good luck.Why are colognes and perfumes called ';eau de toilette?
    I have no idea but isn't it weird? it bugs me it's like why would i want to smell like a ';toillete'; ahah nice question though : )
    water of the toilet? lol i sure wouldn't want to smell like that.
    Long ago, when men shaved and ladies put on makeup and did their hair, the table they used was called a ';toilette';. They would say that they were ';making their toilette';, which means they were cleaning up a tad.





    Eau means scent. ';Eau de fleur'; means scent of flowers.





    Therefore, ';eau de toilette'; means the fragrance that is on your dressing table.





    It's all in the translation.
    It's French for calogne spray.


    Kinda weird though!
    It's in french.. and they consider this phrase perfume in the french language is toilette. It's not pronounced ';TOILET';.
    literally, it means ';toilet water';





    think about it... you go to the bathroom (aka 'the toilet') to freshen up... like putting on perfume

    PS: I love ANGEL perfume too...I just dont have that kind of money for retail price- if there are ligitimate shortcuts, plz share.Trying to buy ';Amarige de Givenchy'; perfume on discount- what's eau de toilette? same smell? cheaper version?
    I'm not an expert, but from what I recall, the different names given to fragrance products, that is: cologne eau de toilette, perfume et al. refers to the ratio of fragrance to alcohol. Perfume (or parfum en Francaise) is the purest form of fragrance with the least alcohol. It last the longest and the scent is the most intense and it's the most expensive. Cologne and eau de cologne is the next in intensity, with more alcohol. To some expert noses, it's the best expression of a scent, not too overpowering, last through the day, and usually a good price. Eau de toilette is less expensive, has a higher alcohol content, and is the lightest form of the scent. It's often the least expensive and is good for those on a budget.





    Some fragrances will never have an inexpensive version due to the costliness of some of the essential fragrance oils. Some can cost hundreds of dollars per ounce! There a few that are thousands per ounce from rare rainforest orchids. There are places that sell replica scents, these are very similar to the originals in the top and middle notes, and can be an alternative for those with limited funds. They analyze the chemical profile of the essential oils and attempt to chemically duplicate them, they do a good job with some, not so good with others. If you want the real thing, then some budget conscious fragrance fans buy less expensive shower gels, powders, and body cremes. You get the same scent and for far less money. That's what I did for years when I had champagne tastes and wine spritzer budget!Trying to buy ';Amarige de Givenchy'; perfume on discount- what's eau de toilette? same smell? cheaper version?
    www.scentiments.com


    is the cheapest I've found, and tester bottles just mean it comes with no cap but still a full bottle. I own the original amarige. It only comes in a toilette, but that version is still very strong. Stronger than most perfumes. The second amarige called d'amour smells like pleasures, but the new one amarige mariage is good too. I would never buy perfume from ebay. Many bad stories about that! You never know what you'll get and it could be a supposedly decanted bottle.


    That's the mini bottle they show, I've seen it at walmart. You know those tiny perfume displays by the perfume section? Try there, I'm sure most walmarts have that.

    and what one do you like better?What it the difference between D %26amp; G's perfumes, The one and l'eau the one?
    Hi Cappara,





    The one was launched by D%26amp;G in 2006 and last year they launched Leau the one. The second one is a lighter version of the original fragrance.





    The one is a heavier scent with notes of vetiver, muguet, vanilla %26amp; jasmine whereas L'eau the one is lighter scent with notes of Musk, Lily-of-the-valley, vanilla, peach and Plum.


    Both fragrances have rave reviews but I personally like the original better as it stays longer on my wife. I also find the original more sexy...





    I would say with fall and winter coming, you should go with the The One (original) as the newer version is more of a spring thru summer scent.

    Thanks you !HELP!!! perfume:';Cologne for Men Eau De Parfum Spray (EDP)'; means?
    EDP means Eau de Parfum, which is a higher concentration of aromatic compounds than Eau de Toilette.





    Eau de Parfum typically has a concentration of 15% aromatic compounds, where as Eau de Toilette typically has a concentration of 10%.





    As far as the Jeanne Arthes fragrances go, and how long they stay with you, you would have to be more specific as to which exact fragrance you are looking to purchase, and at which concentration. Jeanne Arthes has at least 20 different fragrances.

    Eau de perfume is more concentrated leaving a heavier scent. It generally costs more than eau de toilette. Eau de toilette is not as overpowering and is lighter.What is the different between eau de toilette and eau de perfume?
    Water and alcohol content. The fragrance starts out as pure essential oils from plant, animal etc... It is catagorized according to how much water and alcohol have been added to dilute the original pure oils. Pure parfum, Eau de parfum, Eau de cologne, Eau de toilette
    eau de toilette is not as concentrated. eau de perfume contains more of the oil that concentrates the perfume therefore making the use of less work just as well.
    concentration !!! eau de parfum is very concentrated
    Eau de toilette is a lighter version of a fragrance, and is kind of watered down. Eau de perfume is concentrated and pure perfume.

    What's the difference between eau de toilette and eau de perfume?

    Hello everyone!


    I saw that this question was asked on this forum many times some time ago but the answers didn't really answer my question. So, I'm not asking what's the difference between PERFUME and EAU DE PERFUME, but what's the difference between EAU DE TOILETTE and EAU DE PERFUME... I saw in a brochure for ladies some fragrances called ';eau de toilette'; and some of them named ';eau de perfume';.So I think there's no the same thing. I think eau de perfume might be a stronger fragrance than eau de toilette... am I right?


    Can we use them together?


    Thanks.What's the difference between eau de toilette and eau de perfume?
    Yes you're right. Eau de perfume is much stronger than Eau de ToiletteWhat's the difference between eau de toilette and eau de perfume?
    eau de perfume is stronger and more expensive


    eau de toilette is more like a body spray- the scent isn't as strong





    and i suppose you could use them together but the eau de perfume would probably mask the eau de toilette





    (:
    its just the difference in concentration..


    perfume is the most concentrated and strongest followed by eau de perfume and then eau de toilette
    Eau de toilette has more water per fragrance tha eau de perfume and is therefore a lighter scent that doesn't ';stick to you'; as well. It's also cheaper.
    Toilette is a lot lighter. Think of it like a body splash.

    What is the average size of a perfume or eau de toilette bottle?

    Bottles seem to come in 50ml, 100ml, 125ml, and larger.





    I have seen a 50ml of a bottle on-line, i reckon it would be too small?





    How many times do you reckon you could use a 50ml bottle?!





    I have searched and searched - but all search results just show results to buy!!





    ThanksWhat is the average size of a perfume or eau de toilette bottle?
    Hi,


    Most people buy 100ml size perfume bottles as they are better deals in long run. There is usually a difference of $10-$15 only between 50ml and 100ml bottles. Now keep in mind 100ml are not allowed in air plane cabins anymore so for traveling 50ml is the best way to go.





    You can probably get around 100 sprays easily from 50ml bottle. Normally a 50 ml bottle should last a few months but then again depends how you use it.





    If it is a fragrance you really like and use often, pay the difference and get the larger size. You will save in long run.

    i really don't get the difference, so can someone please explain it to me? i also see that it costs difference ranges in money. please help me. thanks!! :)What's the difference between perfumes? (ex: parfum, eau de toilette, eau de parfum)?
    I think there from different countries wit different languages. like the styles are from dif countries. like i think eau de toilette is french

    What is the different between Eau de Toilet and Tester perfumes ?

    Yes, of course i know tester means for clients try out, and Eau de toilet is for sell.


    But yesterday, i bought a Hugo Energies Tester by accident, i didn't read the description well. Later, i won the thing and i realized that... it's a tester.


    I asked the seller what is the different and he/she said: They're the same.





    Does it true ????What is the different between Eau de Toilet and Tester perfumes ?
    yes testers are the same thing.





    They usually sell for less because they come without the box or either its missing something a regular perfume would come with if it were purchased at a store.





    I buy testers all the time. Their cheaper, its the same thing and their cheaper. Did i mention that their cheaper.


    What is the different between Eau de Toilet and Tester perfumes ?
    Yes testers are just usually the fragrence with the word ';Tester'; slapped on it.





    ';Eau de...'; reffers to the concentration of the fragrence.





    * Perfume extract (Extrait): 15-40% (IFRA: typical 20%) aromatic compounds


    * Eau de Parfum (EdP), Parfum de Toilette (PdT): 10-20% (typical ~15%) aromatic compounds. Sometimes listed as ';eau de perfume';.


    * Eau de Toilette (EdT): 5-15% (typical ~10%) aromatic compounds


    * Eau de Cologne (EdC): Chypre citrus type perfumes with 3-8% (typical ~5%) aromatic compounds


    * Splash and After shave: 1-3% aromatic compounds

    What does eau de toilette mean? perfume wise.?

    Eau de toilette is cologne, not perfume.What does eau de toilette mean? perfume wise.?
    The toilette water is a less concentrated fragrance that typically contains 1-6% concentration of perfume. It is meant to be a light and short lasting fragrance, typically like a body splash or spray mist that is found in after-shower products and also found in body lotion products.





    Eau de parfum, is more expensive than the toilette water and contains typically 7-15% perfume concentrate. Lasts the longest.What does eau de toilette mean? perfume wise.?
    t's a lighter fragrance than the actual perfume itself.. It's ';staying'; scent is also less than perfume, but by the same token, it's a lot less in cost than the actual perfume.And sometimes a lighter fragrance out in today's society ';works'; a bit better..


    F.Y. I. I'm ';hooked'; on YSL's Opium.. and with that said, I'm also a transvestite, so that scent for me, is very sensual..


    Regards,


    Rachelle In High Heels
    Eau de toilette has around 1-6% perfume concentrates. This makes for a light scent that doesn't linger as long as the more intense versions. It was originally intended to be a refreshing body splash to help people wake up in the morning.
    its like bathroom perfume

    Which one stays longer; perfume oil or eau de toilette?

    which one stays longer; perfume oil or eau de toilette? thx for the answers..Which one stays longer; perfume oil or eau de toilette?
    I worked for a perfumery and the oil is the more potent of the two. The oils react with your skin's oil. The eau de toilette has a less concentrated amount of fragrance in the productWhich one stays longer; perfume oil or eau de toilette?
    Oil
    The attar strength of perfume oil is higher than eau de toilette. Thereafter the concentration diminishes with cologne, and in the case of men's toiletries, after shave.


    With perfume oil, a mere drop will have the same effect as a spray of cologne.


    .....and you don't want to know where they get some of the scents from.
    They both stay but I think the perfume oil is more concentrated. The reason the smell seems to dissipate is because the nerve (olfactory) in your nose that actually does the smelling for you gets accustomed to a smell and raises its threshold to it. Which means the wearer of the perfume can no longer smell it, so this person puts on more and more and more. Unfortunately what the wearer doesn't realize is that everyone else can smell it without any difficulty. When they keep putting it on because they can't smell it anymore, they may think they smell pretty good, but everyone else is choking on the stench. I've known Cologne wearers whose stench was left behind in the air up to 10 hours after they left a room!
    the perfume oil. the oil also produces a thicker, more potent fragrance. if you don't want to smell too heavy i would stick with the eau de toilette.
    perfume!!

    What does eau fraiche mean? im buying a perfume and its say this, iv only heard of eau de toilette/parfum,can?

    someone let me know thanksWhat does eau fraiche mean? im buying a perfume and its say this, iv only heard of eau de toilette/parfum,can?
    Eau fraiche is literally translated as fresh water. It means that there is a less concentration of alcohol water which is waht gives it its fragrance. It also means that usually it is alcohol free.

  • Why do all perfume bottle say 'l'eau de toliette' when that means toliet water in french?

    am i miss understanding does it mean water toliet? its wierd..Why do all perfume bottle say 'l'eau de toliette' when that means toliet water in french?
    First - perfume and toilet water are very different. Toiliet water is scented water, essentially. Perfume is a distilled scent, very powerful and usually expensive.





    Second - Toilette - loosely translated toilet - does not refer to the porcelain fixture in the bathroom,but rather the process of preparing yourself to be seen in public. In the days of the French kings and queens, there were courtiers whose sole job was to help the king dress - and these were positions of great prestige.





    Preparing your toilette was a process that could take hours - and in days when bathing was reserved to once or twice a year, the need for a scented water to help mute the body odors was really great. Thte last thing you would do, in preparing your toilette, was to sprinkle yourself liberally with eau de toilette - water of the toilette - and you were ready to go out in public.





    Nothing to do with the crapper.Why do all perfume bottle say 'l'eau de toliette' when that means toliet water in french?
    Where do you think that ';toilet water'; gets its scent from? I guess that some people's stuff don't stink after all. Report Abuse

    Typical *rolls eyes* Report Abuse

    I have to note the fact that the answerer's nickname is Uncle ';John';.





    Purely coincidental, I'm sure. Report Abuse

    wow that was a great answer for a toilet question...well done... Report Abuse

    The process of getting dressed and ready for the day is ';attending to ones Toliette'; not the comode where you eleminate excess used foods.
    Its a slang saying. Like Faux pas. Which is literally False not.


    Imagine if someone speaking french heard, wassup, or dude. They wouldn't get it either.





    l'eau, means a substance that looks like water.


    toliette, means a toilettry (shampoo, lotion, are all toilettries)
    I'm guessing that toilet water means something different to the French.

    I want to smell nice ! Every morning i put Eau de toilette , and Perfume is meant for night ? (with my girl)?

    I'm not 100% sure what you are asking but to smell nice I put my perfume in my hair so that it will last longer! But you dont need to wear perfume all the time there are body sprays that smell just as nice that you can wear!!

    Perfume ? fragrance?Cologne?Eau de toilette?

    Whats the difference between these..? when to use ....Perfume ? fragrance?Cologne?Eau de toilette?
    There is no difference other than the words themselves,


    These are just different ways to say the same thing.Perfume ? fragrance?Cologne?Eau de toilette?
    There's no difference apart from 'cologne' generally referring to fragrance for men.
    nothing
    this is the only difference...





    Eau de Toilette and Eau de Cologne are generally interchangeable, particularly in Men's fragrances.





    Eau de Cologne - least concentrated with fragrance lasting up to 1 hour


    Eau de Toilette - concentrated with fragrance lasting up to 2 hours


    Eau de Parfum - concentrated with fragrance lasting up to 3-4 hours
    No difference really Cologne is generally for men though :-)
    parfum/perfume is generally much more concentrated %26amp; eau de toilette has a lighter fragrance....not as intense/strong as parfum.





    cologne is usually associated with mens fragrances.
    Eau de toilette - It's not as concentrated as perfume so it won't last as long.





    Perfume - More concentrated than the eau de toillete so it will last throughout the day.





    Cologne - refers to men's fragrance.





    Fragrance - refers to all of the above; perfume, body sprays, eau de toilletes, body cream, body lotion, anything with a smell!





    Best of luck!

    What is the difference between cologne and perfume , and between aeu de toilette and , eau de cologne, ?

    Cologne and eau de cologne - men's





    Perfume and aeu de toilette - Women's





    Cologne and perfume are stronger and usually more expensive than eau de cologne and aeu de toilette.





    eau de cologne and aeu de toilette are watered down versions.What is the difference between cologne and perfume , and between aeu de toilette and , eau de cologne, ?
    The differences are simply a matter of the amount or concentration of oils in the fragrance. The highest concentration is in perfume (or parfum). Next would be Eau de Parfum, then Eau de Toilette, and finally Eau de Cologne.





    Actually, Eau de Toilette and Eau de Cologne are generally interchangeable, particularly in Men's fragrances. What is the difference between cologne and perfume , and between aeu de toilette and , eau de cologne, ?
    When i say perfume or aeu de toilette i insist on something which lasts for much long compared to a cologne..i had a lesson in english in which this was thought..';a perfume lasts for about 8-12 hours whereas a colonge lasts for about 4-6 hours';..anyways perfume is what you spray and colonge is what you splash!
    They differ in the amount of pure perfume oil in the mixture. Cologne is the weakest as is eau de cologne, with maybe 3-10% perfme oil. Then eau de toilette, which is usually up to 30%, but usually less, and then perfume is the purest.
    cologne when you go to work, perfume when you go to party. cologne is significantly cheaper as it has a lesser perfume content... you can splash cologne liberally, but doing so with perfume would be bloody disgusting.
    Cologne=manly smelling perfume (for men)


    Perfume=girly smelly stuff (women)


    Hope that clears up the confusion
    colonge is 4 guys perfume is 4 girls same wit da second 1 aeu de toilette 4 girls nd eau de cologne 4 guys
    Cologen is for a guy and perfume is for a girl.
    it's the difference (fragrance) in oil concentration and alcohol.
    they are all the same shyt

    What is the difference btwn perfume and body spray? eau de blah what do they mean?which 1 is longer lasting?

    There are 4 basic types, with the first being the strongest, and the last being the weakest. Body spray isn't actually considered perfume, as it's so little aroma, mostly chemical junk.





    Perfume extract: 20%-40% aromatic compounds


    Eau de parfum: 10-30% aromatic compounds


    Eau de toilette: 5-20% aromatic compounds


    Eau de cologne: 2-3% aromatic compoundsWhat is the difference btwn perfume and body spray? eau de blah what do they mean?which 1 is longer lasting?
    Eau de Perfume lasts longer because it is made with oils, but it is more expensive because it is more pure. Body spray is mostly water and alcohol with fragrance. And perfumes that say eau de toilette or toilet water, are mostly water with fragrance. .What is the difference btwn perfume and body spray? eau de blah what do they mean?which 1 is longer lasting?
    I'd say perfume is for those nice occasions where you want to attract your love and body spray for those quick occassions. I really don't know how there can be a difference when both just give off a smell that is surely going to pump guys up no matter what. And I would say perfume lasts much longer not because they overprice that stuff but they put so much more time and effort into making the product a quality product. Who knows the body spray may smell great but an hour later you might up smelling like soemthing else.... who knows. Anyways just giving in on my opinion. I don't know any true facts about perfumes or body spray cause I'm a guy.
    perfume last alot longer...and bodysprays smell more fruiter and sweet but they soon fade..lol
    my sisiter is a pharmacist and she told that the eu de parfum has longer lasting scent that the body spray which makes it more expensive.
    Perfume lah babe!

    Ok a little bit of theory first. Eau de toilette is less strong because it is of a concentration between 8%-12%. Eau de perfum is concentrated at 15% and then a ';perfum'; is 18%=%26gt; so that has nothing to do with whether you are a man or a woman. I would just guess that most women wear something more discret though.





    Here is a link to a list of ';Eau de parfum'; for men:

    Which has a stronger scent, eau de toilette or perfume?

    You actually distinguish between eau de toilette and eau de parfum, not eau de toilette and perfume, perfume is a generic term. Eau de Parfum is the concentrated form, eau de toilette is diluted with water. Eau de parfum is stronger and lasts longer but is very expensive, most pefumes are eau de toilette.Which has a stronger scent, eau de toilette or perfume?
    perfume have a longer lasting scent more pleasent unlike eau de toilette which have a strong odor which makes you dizzy due to their high alcohol contentWhich has a stronger scent, eau de toilette or perfume?
    Perfume, because eau de toilette is diluted with water and perfume isn't

    Is it bad or humiliating to give a 30ml perfume eau de toilette as a gift?

    Ok, so I decided to give the Harajuku lovers perfume to my friends for their b-day. If it was one friend I would have bought the 100 ml bottle but because my friends are twins, my budget can only afford 30ml bottles. Is that weird or too little quantity to give?????


    Also, what scent of harajuku lovers is the best? Love? Lil Angel? G? Music? Baby?





    Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Is it bad or humiliating to give a 30ml perfume eau de toilette as a gift?
    I think it's very sweet that you are thinking of them the way you are. It is a small size, so what you should do is dress it up with a nice little bag and tissue paper with a card inside.





    Don't know which is the best, but get them different ones so they can trade if they want to.


    You're a cool friend, they'll be happy, don't worryIs it bad or humiliating to give a 30ml perfume eau de toilette as a gift?

    French term or phrase: l'eau de toilette





    Toilet water


    It was considered over-the-top to wear anything more than a quick splash of toilet water after a shower or sport – and it had to be a “manly” toilet water, consisting of citrus (Orange and Lime) top notes and woody base notes (like Cedarwood and Sandalwood). Components of Oriental fragrances, such as flowers, musk and amber, were definitely not acceptedWhere does l'eau de toilette perfume or cologne get it's name?
    Cologne is the English spelling/pronounciation of the German city ';Koeln';.


    It was in Koeln, a couple of hundred years ago, where the first 'famous' scented 'water' was made, and it is still known today as '4711'.


    l'eau de toilette refers to 'toilet water', yet not the water you find in a toilet, of course!


    It's the 'water' (actually usually a mixture of alcohol and essential oils) someone would apply while 'making toilette' : grooming.Where does l'eau de toilette perfume or cologne get it's name?

    In great malls like Macy, Jc Penny outlet, Nordestrome, Target here in US / North America.





    If there are not many choices there, I'd suggest buying great perfumes at Airport Duty-Free Shops!





    Better still, go in for it when it is on SALE during the Festival (Like Xmas) season. You can get it half a price.





    French perfumes are most sought after not without reasons.
    Go to Macy's, Nordstrome's, any larger ';higher end'; department stores. Even JCPenny's.





    Perfume is a lot more concentrated, this why they have such a high price for a little bottle. Eau de parfume is a less potent version of perfume. It is still good and I think less ';pungent';?
    The big department stores at the mall have both. You just have to ask. Perfume is MUCH more expensive.

    Is there a difference between Charlie ';Blue'; perfume & Charlie ';Blue Eau Fraiche';?

    When a fragrance is labeled ';Eau Fraiche';, it usually means that it is weaker in perfume concentration, and so last for a shorter period of time on your skin 鈥?see below for an explanation of perfume concentrations!





    Perfume/Parfum is the purest fragrance form, also the longest lasting due to the high content of essential oils.





    Eau de Parfum (EDP) has a typical concentration of 12-20 percent essential oils for less long-lasting wear than a perfume.





    Eau de toilette has a typical concentration of 8 to 15 percent essential oils.





    Eau de cologne (or Cologne) has a concentration of 4 to 8 percent of essential oils.





    Eau fraiche is the most diluted of scent with just 1 to 3 percent concentration of essential oils.





    Although this is true in most cases, sometimes ';Eau Fraiche'; means that it is a reformulation of the fragrance which is a ';lighter'; version of the original. However, I don't think this is the case with Charlie Blue. Hope this helps!

    Perfume!! eau de toilette?

    my friends and I dont understand why perfume is called eau de toilette because by our translation it means toilet water :s can someone explain its meaning??Perfume!! eau de toilette?
    Parfum and eau de toilette are not the same thing.


    There is eau de cologne, eau de toilette, eau de parfum. For eau de cologne, there are 2 % of concentration of elements. 7-9% in eau de toilette and 15% in eau de parfum.


    So parfum is much more concentrated than eau de toilette and the fragrance will last longer.


    As for the translation, we in France don't mean it as toilet water, actually it's kind of a refreshing toiletry for anyone. Unlike parfum which is mainly for women and cologne for men. In French not every name means it's direct translation. for example, eau de vie, people call it water of life and actually it means a low distilled alchol drink made with wine, herbs, fruit and grains.Perfume!! eau de toilette?
    Really, it is just a name that represents the strength of a scent. Eau de cologne is the weakest in lasting power, then eau de toilette, and followed by eau de parfum and parfum is the strongest made. French words have different meaning and definitions, even though they have an English definition as well.
    toilette means wash, outfit in french





    so 'wash water or outfit water' rather than half translating it to toilet water.
    http://www.perfumeintelligence.co.uk/lib鈥?/a>





    This link will explain a lot about perfumes


    The word comes from the Latin per fumum meaning 鈥榯hrough smoke鈥?as ancient civilizations burnt aromatic substances as part of their worship. It is a solution classified today as containing 15-30% perfume oils and 70-85% alcohol


    Toilet water contains 4 to 8 % oils and 75 to 80 % alcohol Hence the term is a play on 'watered down' whereas perfume is much stronger and much more expensive.
    in french, toilette probably means toiletries. so maybe toiletry water.
    Try the ';extract'; from perfume : this is the most dense and rich all of.





    The most known of all (and one of the most expensive) is the extract from Channel 5.

  • Can anyone tell difference for colonge, eau de toilette, eau de perfume,?

    Cologne is in a different category than perfume; cologne is for men, perfume is for women. Eau de Parfum is the strongest concentration of scent and you should only use a small amount. Eau de Toilette is slightly less strong. Body sprays are more subtle still and can take several spritzes.Can anyone tell difference for colonge, eau de toilette, eau de perfume,?
    the concentration of the basic etheric oil that makes the fragranceCan anyone tell difference for colonge, eau de toilette, eau de perfume,?
    They have to do with the concentrations. Perfumes consist basically of essential oils or aroma components and carriers or solvents that these are dissolved in. These are the ratings: Perfume Perfume extract, or extrait) contains 15-30% aroma components, Eau de parfum contains 10-15%, Eau de toilette contains usually 5-8%, and Eau de cologne usually 3-5%. For men, its a little different. Eau de toilette is the highest you will find, and aftershave is less concentrated. These percents are approximate and vary. usually, you will only hear people refer to a women's fragrance as perfume and a men's as cologne, but these are misnomers

    Why on many of the Sprays(perfumes) it is written ';Eau De Toilette'; Or ';Eau De Perfume';?

    Perfume is a combination of natural and synthetic compounds which are aromatic compounds and fixatives. They are mixed with alcohol and water in different strengths.





    There are different strengths of perfume concentrates which are sold.





    Eau de toilette contains about 5% - 15% perfume concentrates. It is light, and usually does not last very long.





    Eau de parfum (perfume) contains about 15% - 25% perfume concentrates. It is therefore stronger and lasts longer





    Some (but not all) perfume houses will sell Perfume Extract (or Perfume) which can contains up to about 40% perfume concentrates. Some of the ones who do are Chanel and Coty. Be careful how much, or how little you put on.





    Many houses slightly alter the aromatic formulation of the perfume if it is an EDP or an EDT.





    Perfumery is an extremely complex art and science. A fascinating read if you like perfume is Chandler Burr's ';The Emperor of Scent: A Story of Perfume, Obsession, and the Last Mystery of the Senses.';Why on many of the Sprays(perfumes) it is written ';Eau De Toilette'; Or ';Eau De Perfume';?
    It's simply french for cologne, they both mean the same.Why on many of the Sprays(perfumes) it is written ';Eau De Toilette'; Or ';Eau De Perfume';?
    Eau De Toilette is the weakest version you can buy. Eau De Paerfume is the next up. Perfume is the strongest/most concentrated of the same scent.
    Eau De Toilette is cheaper than perfume.

    What is the difference between After Shave & Cologne, between Perfume and Eau de Toilette (AKA Toilet Water)?

    The difference is the concentration of perfume essence used in the products. Eau de Toilette is a lighter version of the Perfume and same with the After Shave being the lighter version of the Cologne.

    When choosing a perfume, what is the difference between an eau de parfume & eau de toilette?

    All the girls who answered that eau de parfum has a stronger oil content are right. So if you want a good quality perfume that will last all day and beyond, fish out the extra dough.When choosing a perfume, what is the difference between an eau de parfume %26amp; eau de toilette?
    # Eau de parfum: 10-30% aromatic compounds


    # Eau de toilette: 5-20% aromatic compoundsWhen choosing a perfume, what is the difference between an eau de parfume %26amp; eau de toilette?
    A fragrance is a blend of extracts, alcohol and water, each perfume characterised by the ratio of ingredients. A perfume has a different concentration of extracts to an Eau de Toilette. Perfume has the highest concentration, followed by Eau de Parfum and Esprit de Parfum. Though they are less concentrated, the two latter fragrances leave an intense lingering scent. Eau de Toilette is much lighter, with the least concentrated fragrance being Eau de Cologne.
    eau de toilette is a watered down version of Parfume. That is why it is so much cheaper.
    good question. i dont have the answer tho. its no big deal just some crazy french bull
    Perfume is stronger. Toilette water has the same scent, but is lighter.
    that is a good question. what is the difference i hope some1 knows. i wish i did!
    Eau de parfume has a higher percentage of the oil/essence that makes the scent, so it's longer lasting.
    Eau de Parfum is the most concentrated, and thus, costs more. Eau de Toilette is the most ';watered down'; version of any perfume.
    Perfumes generally come in three different types


    1. Parfume-this is the real thing, not watered down, and is usually really expensive.


    2. Eau de parfume is a little weaker than the parfume, and is a little less expensive.


    3. Eau de toilette is the weakest of the fragrance, and it is the least expensive you can buy.





    A great deal of the perfumes out there are eau de toilette.
    Toilet water or eau de toilette, is a lighter version of the actual perfume.
    The eau de toilette is the original name for perfume (back in the 1700's). The French perfected perfume and except for the poor, everyone used it (they only bathed once a month, if that).





    As newer companies came along they had to distinguish from the old style and newer and more powerful parfumes that you could use less and get same odor. Therefore the eau de parfume for the better product.





    Some brands (types?) of eau de toilette were used on several parts of the body.

    What is the difference between ';Eau de toilette'; and the perfume?

    Eww, toilet water.. but perfume, niiiceWhat is the difference between ';Eau de toilette'; and the perfume?
    Real perfume coast more and is pura,Stronger and you need to use less than the cheaper stuff,it also last longer!and I do not care what anybody else says,I think it always smells better than chipper STuff!Hollywood!What is the difference between ';Eau de toilette'; and the perfume?
    perfume is much more concentrated and the scent will last much much longer on your skin


    ';eau de toilette'; is a more affordable version, but you should carry it with you and re-apply every couple of hours.
    Water (or alcohol) and Oils...





    One is weaker, cheaper %26amp; dilluted. The other is stronger, more expensive and well... better.
    Perfume is a version, concentrated version of the chemical. Eau de toilette is also the french alternative to perfumes. The French used to believe that a very modest amount of perfume should be used (especially by a woman). A woman with an overwhelming scent of perfume was discreetly thought to be a 'working girl'. Eau de toilette is a lot less diluted today than in the past.
    The strength and the price usually
    cost
    perfume is stronger and not diluted.
    ';eau de toilette'; has lighter concentration %26amp; smell bec. it contains more water %26amp; alcohol %26amp; less oil,while perfume is more concentrated %26amp; has more oil.

    Why is perfume referred to as Eau de Toilette which translates to ';water of the toilet';?

    there are many types of perfume and perfumes have many concentration of compounds here are some examples





    Perfume extract (Extrait): 15-40% (IFRA: typical 20%) aromatic compounds





    Eau de Parfum (EdP), Parfum de Toilette (PdT): 10-20% (typical ~15%) aromatic compounds. Sometimes listed as ';eau de perfume'; or ';mill茅sime';.





    Eau de Toilette (EdT): 5-15% (typical ~10%) aromatic compounds





    Eau de Cologne (EdC): Chypre citrus type perfumes with 3-8% (typical ~5%) aromatic compounds


    Splash and After shave: 1-3% aromatic compoundsWhy is perfume referred to as Eau de Toilette which translates to ';water of the toilet';?
    It's actually 'toilet water'. With a concentration in the region of one to six percent, 'toilette' water is a less concentrated fragrance than perfume. It is typically used in a body splash, spray mist, body lotion and after-shower products and is intended to be a light and short lasting fragrance.





    Hence it's cheaper and more frowned upon.





    And although toilette does actually mean toilet, there is another meaning in French, which is as follows:





    'formal or fashionable attire or style of dress, a particular costume or outfit'





    So the disambiguation points to Eau De Toilette being an accompaniment to an outfit (rather than bottled p1ss water!)Why is perfume referred to as Eau de Toilette which translates to ';water of the toilet';?
    You're translation is very literal and doesn't take into account that the word toilette has several meanings.


    If one uses the phrase';faire sa toilette';, toilette no longer refers to a toilet, but to a grooming ritual. In that sense Eau de toilette would translate into something more like ';grooming water';.
    you are wrongly assuming that 'toilet' means lavatory. It usually does in today's parlance, but it has another (now rather old-fashioned) meaning, which is to do with grooming, cleaning, generally beautifying oneself - the name of the perfume comes from this origin, 'doing one's toilet'. (from the French toilette, I would imagine)
    Toilette can also mean dressing oneslef, which still doesn't make that much sense. Anyway that means it's more watered down than perfumes that say ';eau de parfum'; which smell stronger and last longer (I didn't mean that to rhyme).
    Becuase Toilet never used to mean the thing you crap in, it means the room, eau de toilette was invented before the toilet
    because ';toilette'; used to refer to personal hygiene activities - not just going #1 %26amp; #2
    because water in the toilet destroys all the obscene odours in the air, u know how when u flush the toilet the poo is gone and is replaced with clean water .. like how perfume covers up bad smells and instead gives a nice smell ..
    Toilette is a very old term to describe your personal grooming etc...and was adopted by perfumiers.
    It's a cheaper version of perfume with only half the strength of real perfume...
    you can't whack a good whiff of a khazi
    lol hahahahaha :-)
    Because it's made in Toulouse.

  • I bought some nice perfume for my wife only to find out it was eau de toillete?

    What kinda crap is this? It was expensive too.I bought some nice perfume for my wife only to find out it was eau de toillete?
    Don't worry, you didn't buy 'toilet water'. The phrase refers to the concentration of perfume in the product.





    Perfume contains 15~40% concentrates.


    Eau de parfum contains around 7~15% concentrates.


    Eau de toillete contains around 1~6% perfume concentrates.I bought some nice perfume for my wife only to find out it was eau de toillete?
    idk return it.
    You bought toilet water for your wife? You are so in the doghouse!!





    Just kidding. That's just the French term for perfume. She'll think it's classy.
    Eau de toillete lasts longer when you put it on. At least from my experiences. :) And yes, it is rather expensive.
    do it smell good?
    eau de toillete is a slightly lighter version of the perfume. Most women prefer this as it is easier not to apply too much.


    This version is usually about 15 percent fragrance. The expensive version would be label parfume. This is about 30% fragrance and only very little should be used. The price is based on the type of perfume. eau de toillete is french for toilet water.
    Don't worry it's not toilet frshner or something, it's exactly the same, but french. Most of it is really nice stuff actually.
    a eau de toillete doesn't have alcohol, while a perfume does. I think that just makes the perfume last longer..and makes it stronger.

    How long does an Eau De Toilette last? And how long does a perfume last ?

    ATTENTION : I mean how long they last, until the bottle gets empty . Because if i buy one that is expensive, i guess that it lasts 3 months . Right ?





    for Eau De toilette i will be putting them every day (morning).How long does an Eau De Toilette last? And how long does a perfume last ?
    Well it depends on the size of the bottle. The most common sizes are 1oz, 1.7oz, and 3.4oz. The Eau de Perfum will last longer because you will need about 4 sprays to last almost the whole day, with a Toilette you will end up re apply during the day. An Eau de Toilette has more water than fragrance so it results in a lighter smell. The Eau de Perfum has more fragrance than water resulting in a stronger longer lasting scent.

    What is the difference between Eau de Parfum and Eau de toilette when buying perfume?

    Eau to toilette is a false ecomony, as it does not last as long, get perfume everytimeWhat is the difference between Eau de Parfum and Eau de toilette when buying perfume?
    About 拢20 a bottle. The parfum is concentrated and alchohol or similar based. The eau de is water based and weaker..What is the difference between Eau de Parfum and Eau de toilette when buying perfume?
    Eau de Parfum is more concentrated than Eau de Toilette, therefore it is more expensive, although as you only need to use less of it it as it's stronger it can work out more economical.
    eau de parfum is stronger than eau de toilette, and usually costs more and lasts longer.
    Eau de parfume is more consentrated than Eau de toilette.


    There were just ';Perfumes'; made back in the day I herd, but now they are rarley made. They used to come in a much little bottles than the ';Eau de'; ones made now.
    Parfum is more concentrated. You would use less. Eau de toilette is a watered down version.
    Eau de Parfum lasts longer
    I do believe that Eau de Parfum is stronger that Eau de Toilette.
    Eau de Parfum - is oil based





    Eau de toilette - is water based - cheaper version and smell doesn't last as long
    Eau de Parfum is more concentrated so will be stronger and last longer

    A fancy bottle and a hundred bucks?What is the difference of Eau deToillette and perfume?
    Sniffing around for ';types of perfume'; turned up the sweet smell of eau de toilette and eau de parfum, as well as other versions of scented luxury.





    Most perfumes are complex combinations of natural materials, such as essential oils from plants, and synthetic products that increase the lasting power and heighten the smell. Alcohol is used as a liquid base for perfume, and the ratio of alcohol to scented perfume concentrates determines what the final concoction is labeled.





    From highest concentration to least, the different forms of perfume are:





    * Perfume, also called extract or extrait perfume, can include 15-40% perfume concentrates. This is the purest form of scented product and is the most expensive as a result.





    * Eau de parfum contains about 7-15% perfume concentrates. This is the most popular and common form of perfume. It provides a long-lasting fragrance and generally doesn't cost as much as extract perfume.





    * Eau de toilette has around 1-6% perfume concentrates. This makes for a light scent that doesn't linger as long as the more intense versions. It was originally intended to be a refreshing body splash to help people wake up in the morning.





    * Eau de cologne is sometimes used interchangeably with the term eau de toilette. However, the concoction began as the name of a light, fresh fragrance mixed with citrus oils and was made popular by Napoleon. Some perfumers today have a version of this called eau fraiche.





    While these are the main classes of perfume, other products are frequently scented with perfume concentrates too. Lotions, creams, powders, body splashes, aftershaves, soaps, and other cosmetic products may contain variable (though usually small) amounts of fragrance.
    eau de toillette is a waterd down perfume. it is less strong, something subtle and sensual. not overbearing
    Eau de Toillette is watered down and perfume is a concentrated substance. If you buy a 2 oz. bottle of perfume then it might me like 300 dollars. and lasts all day and has no water. perfume lasts all day. Eau de Toillette is not concentrated and therefore doesn't last as long.

    What is difference between men's & women's perfume, difference between ';eau de cologne'; & ';eau de toilette'; ?

    Eadu de perfume is stronger than Eadu Toilette, Perfume mostly used by women. Eadu de cologne %26amp; eadu toilette almost same taste just a bitt different for making more sale.What is difference between men's %26amp; women's perfume, difference between ';eau de cologne'; %26amp; ';eau de toilette'; ?
    The differences are simply a matter of the amount or concentration of oils in the fragrance. These oils are called ';juice.'; The highest concentration of ';juice'; is in perfume (or parfum). Next would be Eau de Parfum, then Eau de Toilette, and finally Eau de Cologne. Actually, Eau de Toilette and Eau de Cologne are generally interchangeable, particularly in Men's fragrances. After Shave has the least amount of oils. The higher the concentration of ';juice'; the longer your fragrance will last, and the less you need to apply. PERFUME (PARFUM) This consists of a 15-30% concentration of perfume essence and is the strongest fragrance available. This means that not only do you need to use less, but also that the fragrance lasts longer, typically for up to 6 hours, depending on skin type.





    EAU DE PARFUM (EDP) This is lighter than Perfume, with an 8-15% concentration, and so is less expensive but still has long lasting characteristics, from 3 to 5 hours.





    EAU DE TOILETTE (EDT) This is a lighter more delicate fragrance, with a 4-8% concentration of the essence, and is therefore most suited to everyday use. It is normally less expensive than Eau de Parfum, and lasts for 2 to 4 hours.What is difference between men's %26amp; women's perfume, difference between ';eau de cologne'; %26amp; ';eau de toilette'; ?
    Eau de parfum or Eau de toilette are French words, So, if you translate, it reads as, Perfume water and Toilet water. Majority of the perfume companies are from France.





    Usually parfum, EDP, is more condensed strong in fragrance longer lasting, expensive than EDT and meant for women, whereas EDT is diluted and usually made for men and women (mostly men).





    Women fragrances are sweet in smell, flowerish and light. Men fragrances are strong in smell. There is third kind Uni-Sex applicable to both genders.





    What I see is it is a commercial funda, naming men and women fragrances. My favourite fragrance is CHANEL ALLURE EDT.





    Enjoy!
    The difference between 'Eau de Parfum' and 'Eau de toilette' is that eau de parfum is alot more concentrated, whereas eau de toilette is a little bit more diluted. eau de parfum is meant for night time, and eau de toilette is meant for day.

  • What is your favourite Men's Eau de Toillette perfume?

    I don't think I've ever seen a men's fragrance in eau de toilette - cologne and after-shave (which I think is pretty much equivalent to toilet water), yes. As I understand it, in women's fragrances there are basically three ';degrees'; which represent the relative amounts of alcohol vs fragrance, with perfume being the heaviest fragrance content (hence the highes prices) followed by cologne (mid-range mix ratio) and then toilet water (lowest fraction of fragrance).What is your favourite Men's Eau de Toillette perfume?

    eau de pretty much mean PERFUME (water of)


    i think its just all frenchz


    dont puzzle over it.
    I DONT NOW IS MY DUDE TOO
    eau de parfum is the exact same thing as perfume...just in French
    I think perfume and parfum are just two different words for ';perfume';, but I'm not 100% sure. Also, there is definitely a difference in concentration. Eau de toilette usually has alcohol added to the perfume, so it's cheaper (but still expensive, if you know what I mean). Real perfume is pretty has a much higher concentration, and it is super expensive. For example, if you buy Chanel No 5 at Nordstrom's or Macy's, it will cost about $90 dollars and it is eau de perfume. But if you were to buy a bottle of Chanel No 5 parfum, it would cost around $300. I'm not 100% sure on all this, but I learned it at some perfumerie in Paris. I bought a tiny bottle of real perfume there, and it was really expensive but it lasts all day long (literally, it's still on the next day if I don't shower). It's strong, but it smells lovely and I can definitely tell the difference, quality-wise, between that and my favorite Burberry perfume.
    Eau de parfum is stronger than eau de toilette. Eau de means ';water of';.

    How much would Chanel perfume (eau de parfum) cost?

    Thankyou!How much would Chanel perfume (eau de parfum) cost?
    i have a big bottle of Coco Mademoiselle and it was about $70...How much would Chanel perfume (eau de parfum) cost?
    Chanel is very expensive, and honestly their fragrances tend to be a bit dated. I know they have a bit of a repuation, but perhaps it is better to look at some more modern brands like Versace or Armani, who also have a branded image, but a more modern sense of style.
    I usually buy my Chanel from Macy's and I pay around $80.00 Of course it all depends on what fragrance you like by Chanel. If you like ';chance'; it will cost around $95.00. Allure will cost about the same $95.00. It really depends on what perfume you want to purchase. Since you live in a Tax free country you really will get a better price. :)
    Too much!

    See here:





    http://ask.yahoo.com/20030226.htmlWhat is the difference between ';eau de toilette'; and ';eau de perfume'; ?
    eau de toilette is less concentrate, there's more water in it, so, it's cheaper, but you need to put more for the same effect...


    eau de toilette is nice for the day!What is the difference between ';eau de toilette'; and ';eau de perfume'; ?
    its simple


    eau de toilette is for men


    eau de perfume is for woman
    toilette is watered down and perfume is concentrated and more expensive.
    one smells nice the other of the loo
    perfume is stronger and more expensive

    Why is perfume called eau de toilette when that means toilet water?

    The toilet was where you took care of ALL of your business, not just going to the canWhy is perfume called eau de toilette when that means toilet water?
    Because the word ';toilette'; never meant toilet in the sense of a john. Like ';lavatory'; it had to do with washing or ';freshening up'; - a euphemism perhaps, but it has lingered on.Why is perfume called eau de toilette when that means toilet water?
    The original meaning of ';toilette'; is the routine of personal hygiene that most people perform each day. For many, that includes a dash of ';eau de toilette.';
    yer dewin it rong.

    What is the diffrence between perfume,eau de toilet and cologne?

    The difference is the concentration of oils and aromatic ingredients





    Parfum extract (perfume) - most potent: 20%-40%


    Eau de parfum - next potent: 15-30%


    Eau de toilette - 5-25% the usually concentration of many fragrances


    Eau de cologne - least powerful: 2-5%





    Some fragrances are made in all four concentrations, others , just the parfum and eau de parfum or eau de toilette and eau de parfum. Sometimes there is very little difference between parfum and eau de parfum except for some additional notes in either one of the two.What is the diffrence between perfume,eau de toilet and cologne?

    Does Coco Mademoiselle perfume smell a lot diffferent than the Eau de Toilette?

    Does anyone prefer the eau de toilette?Does Coco Mademoiselle perfume smell a lot diffferent than the Eau de Toilette?
    to me yes. I feel the eau de parfume smells better. I have both and I feel the eau de toilette is more for summer b/c it is a lighter smell. I also love the eau de parfum more b/c the eau de parfum lasts ALL day and I and everyone around me can smell the eau de parfum.


    however if you are going somewhere where you don't want people to notice your perfume like the dentist or doctors office then you could wear the eau de toilette.


    I prefer the eau de parfum. now if you want the really best coo mademoiselle then you should buy the pure parfum but only wear that one on special days and the pure parfum only comes in one size 0.25 oz for $95


    http://uma.chanel.com/product.php?chnprd鈥?/a>





    coco mademoiselle eau de toilette is Lighter, more relaxed fragrance form.





    A subtle way to apply fragrance. Delicately fresh and citrusy.


    best deal is the 3.4 oz http://uma.chanel.com/product.php?chnprd鈥?/a>





    my fav is coco mademoiselle eau de parfum just b/c I like it better b/c it lasts way longer! and to me the perfume smells better in this version. the 3.4 oz is the best deal.


    http://uma.chanel.com/product.php?chnprd鈥?/a>





    another good choice of coco mademoiselle is the Fresh moisture mist and the size is 6.8 oz for only $50 The exciting, sexy fragrance of COCO MADEMOSELLE in a light, fresh moisturizing spray. Unique creamy texture becomes instantly lightweight and translucent on skin. Ultra-light nano-emulsion hydrating particles prolong fragrance.











    which is a really good buy and would be a perfect choice for hot weather time or to even pair with the eau de toilette or eau de parfum.





    http://uma.chanel.com/product.php?chnprd鈥?/a>











    now whichever you decide to buy , you MUST keep the perfume inside it's white box that the perfume comes in and keep it in a cool dark place. please don't keep your perfume in the bathroom b/c the bathroom will distroy the perfume.





    also ONLY buy coco mademoiselle from CHANEL ONLY!!!Does Coco Mademoiselle perfume smell a lot diffferent than the Eau de Toilette?
    No, it's just that the eau de perfume has a slightly higher oil concentration, which is supposed to make it last longer on you. However, realistically few people can really notice a difference between the 2, and designers use the 'eau de perfume' excuse to charge more on the perfume. I'd stick to the eau the toilette unless you personally noticed perfume to last longer on you.





    The tiny percentage (3-10% more oil) isn't enough to really make a difference. I usually stick with eau de toilette, but then again Im also a poor college student.

    Why almost all cologne\perfume say ';eau de toilette';?

    Almost all my colognes\perfumes (from different brands) say ';eau de toilette';. And whats the difference between cologne and perfume?Why almost all cologne\perfume say ';eau de toilette';?
    eau de toilet refers to the strength of the scent, there is also eau de cologne, actually this is very wear, and not very many scents are it, there is also eau de parfum it is very strong, but eau de toilete is the standard fragrance strength, coloqually cologne referes to a man's fragrance, and perfume refers to a woman's fragrance, though perfume can also just refer to any fragrance. I don'tnow where the different terms started though.Why almost all cologne\perfume say ';eau de toilette';?
    toilette, i think it means its made from water and other stuff added to the real perfume to make perfume which is cheaper so people can afford it! :)
    eau de toilette is just a type of ';scent';





    most ';perfume'; is considered eau de toillette because most factories produce it. it's cheaper and it represents the market. the better ones only produced in small number since they're only consumed by people like ana wintour or beyonce





    the difference between cologne and perfume is just a percentage of some natural oil subtstances (e.g. rose oil)
    Because they originate in France...
    whilst not a technical person... Eau de toilette is weaker, than perfume much less expensive and according to the name..is purely toilette water. Perfumes/ colognes are the real thing
    Its French and perfumes and colognes originate from France and the difference between perfume and cologne is cologne scents are normally made for men. BUt if its a girl scent than it can come in cologne, perfume, or body mist.
    1. So that you know it's not an eau de parfum.


    2. Cologne is for guys, perfume is for women.

  • I want to knw the difference between eau de toilette and eu di perfume or colone?

    please let me knw the difference if anyone knw ..............I want to knw the difference between eau de toilette and eu di perfume or colone?
    The concentrations..

    eau de toilette and eu de perfume are the same, eau de perfume costs more and you only need a little dab because the smell is stronger, the eau de toilette is cheaper and you need more sprays cos the smell doesn't last long.
    Eau de toilette/cologne is less concentrated. Lighter fragrance and smell may not last as long.


    Eau de parfume has more concentrated perfume fragrance so smell lasts longer

    Can anyone match this perfume? GAPGrass Eau de Toilette?

    Several Years ago GAP carried a perfume scent called GRASS, that smelled like freshly cut grass. They have since discontinued it. If anyone is familiar with the scent can you suggest a similar smelling perfume that is avaiable? I absoloutely love the scent. Thanks!Can anyone match this perfume? GAPGrass Eau de Toilette?
    I have heard one that smells like it from bath and body works. In the classics collection, called green clover and aloe. I have it in the spray and shower gel. Smells really good!


    Or sephora might be able to find a match.

    How long does eau du toilette and perfume last?

    If it is a quality one it will last the whole day. If it is a cheap copy then maybe a couple of hours. Just spend more to spend less later - you will have more satisfaction and your good quality eau will last longer.





    MartinHow long does eau du toilette and perfume last?
    Do you mean on the skin or in the bottle? A good perfume kept away from heat and light can last for a hundred years with barely any change in scent. How long does eau du toilette and perfume last?
    Perfume is more concentrated than eau du toilette and, as a result, will last much longer on the skin. I'd say around 6-8 hours. Eau du toilette probably only lasts about 4 hours.
    Depends On The Size Of The Bottle. Or dependant on the make... Armani Diamonds, Jean Paul Gaultier last most of the day...others kinda wear off like CK eau du toilettes .
    Depends whether is was expensive or cheap, the expensive ones tend to last longer.
    Depends on how bad the smell of theShit is. XD
    it depends on it's cost;)

    If there was a sophisticated eau de toillette perfume on the market but it smelled like morning breath...?

    would you be first in line to purchase it?





    Keep in mind, all the celebrities are endorsing it.If there was a sophisticated eau de toillette perfume on the market but it smelled like morning breath...?
    No. And it's not likely it would sell.If there was a sophisticated eau de toillette perfume on the market but it smelled like morning breath...?
    yeah, i would be. The smell of morning breath, takes my breath away. I just can't seem to get enough of it, in fact i'd not only be 1st in line, i'd also be tempted to buy several bottles, and the fact that celebrities are endorsing it[ whatever ';it'; is], makes it even more appealing to me.


    Socially awkward,.. sounds more like socially retarded.
    nah not for me thanks.. I dont care whos endorsing anything i have what i like and want not what some over payed money grabber tells me i should... Any way i dont pay over the odds for things... dont believe in wasting money on ridiculous stuff
    You mean like Poison?


    That's pretty rank, no celebrity endorsement though.





    I suppose if Bob Geldof had a perfume called Skanky Git I might buy it for charity.
    no--i only buy things that appeal to me--not things that are popular
    People Would Buy It, just Like They Buy 'Bottled' Tap Water....!!

  • How to different between ';Eau de toilete'; and ';Eau de perfume ';?

    Eau de toilette is more diluted, cheaper, but you get more. Notice it comes in the biggest bottles.





    Eau de perfume is more concentrated than toilette, more expensive, smaller bottles.How to different between ';Eau de toilete'; and ';Eau de perfume ';?
    eau de toilete is toilet water eau de perfume is perfume lolHow to different between ';Eau de toilete'; and ';Eau de perfume ';?
    About Fragrances:





    The differences are simply a matter of the amount or concentration of oils in the fragrance. These oils are called ';juice.'; The highest concentration of ';juice'; is in perfume (or parfum). Next would be Eau de Parfum, then Eau de Toilette, and finally Eau de Cologne.





    Actually, Eau de Toilette and Eau de Cologne are generally interchangeable, particularly in Men's fragrances. The higher the concentration of ';juice'; the longer your fragrance will last, and the less you need to apply.





    PERFUME


    This consists of a 15-30% concentration of perfume essence and is the strongest fragrance available. This means that not only do you need to use less, but also that the fragrance lasts longer, typically for up to 6 hours, depending on skin type.





    EAU DE PARFUM (EDP)


    This is lighter than Perfume, with an 8-15% concentration, and so is less expensive but still has long lasting characteristics, from 3 to 5 hours.





    EAU DE TOILETTE (EDT)


    This is a lighter more delicate fragrance, with a 4-8% concentration of the essence, and is therefore most suited to everyday use. It is normally less expensive than Eau de Parfum, and lasts for 2 to 4 hours.





    EAU DE COLOGNE (EDC)


    This is often referred to as Cologne and has the greatest dilution of fragrances with a 3-5% concentration of perfume essence, lasting up to 2 hours.
    eau de perfume has a higher concentration of the actual fragrance and less alcohol by volume than eau de toilette.
