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.
Good Mornin(star takes a sip of coffee) Because they are r a cheaper brand.....
