When exploring different types of perfume, you’ll often notice terms like Eau de Parfum and Extrait de Parfum. Whilst both can offer rich scent experiences, extrait perfumes are widely regarded as the strongest and longest-lasting option. The key differences lie in the concentration and formulation.
Extrait de Parfum contain a higher percentage of fragrance oils than Eau de Parfum. Whilst an Eau de Parfum typically holds around 15-20%, an extrait typically contains 20-40% fragrance oil concentration. At KDJ Inspired, our Extrait de Parfum hold 50%. This increased oil content means the scent is more intense and designed to linger for longer with fewer sprays.
The level of concentration found in an extrait means that the scent often feels smoother and more rounded, as with the ones found in our collection. The higher oil ratio allows notes to blend more seamlessly, creating a richer opening and a deeper, more controlled dry-down. Instead of sharp bursts of scent, extraits unfold slowly, revealing layers over time, and evolving beautifully throughout the day.
One area where extraits outshine Eau de Parfum is longevity. The performance on the skin is unmatched, with more oils and less alcohol, evaporation is slower, helping the fragrance stay closer and last longer. This makes a light application possible, ideal for those who want noticeable staying power without overwhelm. They are both powerful and cost-effective.
At KDJ Inspired, extrait concentration is available as an option across our collections, allowing you to choose the intensity that suits you. If you’re looking for inspired perfumes that deliver depth, longevity and a truly luxurious feel, explore the extrait options on the sut and experience luxury without compromise.
