There are many factors to be considered when looking to buy a new fragrance and some factors have much more of an impact than others. An aesthetically pleasing bottle can look great on your vanity but what’s in the bottle is what counts.

Here at KDJ, we want to ensure our customers are fully equipped with the knowledge they need to select the right fragrance for them. If you have found yourself wondering what are the key differences between eau de toilette and eau de parfum, then keep on reading to learn more:

Fragrance Concentration

Eau de toilette: Usually contains a lower concentration of fragrance oils making it a lighter option.

Eau de Parfum: Often contains a high concentration of fragrance oils, delivering a more intense scent that lasts longer.

Longevity

Eau de Toilette: Typically has a shorter longevity on the skin due to the lower concentration of fragrance oils.

Eau de Parfum: Offers better longevity on the skin due to higher contraction levels.

Intensity

Eau de Toilette: Great for everyday wear due to its fresher yet subtle scent.

Eau de Parfum: More intense and rich, making them perfect for evening wear or special occasions.

Both eau de toilette and eau de parfum offer a fragrance experience you are bound to enjoy; the one you choose is down to personal preference. Deciding between the two is often dependent on occasion and desired intensity. Experimenting with fragrances day-to-day allows you to settle on what you prefer.
