What are the most understandable perfume terms?

When it comes to buying perfume, there are some technical terms you need to know. Here are some technical terms that you know and have prepared. Come and learn them!

First, the concentration of perfume Let's take a look at cologne first. Its full name is eau de cologne, or EDC for short. Its essence concentration is usually between 2% and 5%, which is a fresh and elegant tonality. The fragrance of cologne is fresh and pleasant, not too strong, and the fragrance lasts about 1-2 hours. Many men's perfumes use the concentration level of cologne, showing a fresh and clean style. In fact, cologne is also very suitable for girls, and the fresh and natural fragrance can match the personality of girls. I like cologne very much. Its elegant taste makes people feel very comfortable.

Next is eau de toilette, the full name of which is eau de toilette, or EDT for short. Its essence concentration is generally between 5%- 10%, which belongs to soft fragrance type. Its fragrance is not as strong as a strong perfume, but kept at a refreshing and pleasant level. The fragrance of eau de toilette lasts about 3 hours, which is longer than cologne and can last most of the day. I like to use eau de toilette at work. The fresh and elegant breath can bring some happiness to my work. Due to its elegant fragrance and relatively close price, eau de toilette is one of the most popular perfume categories for consumers. There are the most kinds of eau de toilette on the market, and different brands offer different styles of eau de toilette. Eau de toilette is undoubtedly the most popular perfume category at present.

There is also a light essence, the full name is Eau de Parfum, or EDP for short. Its essence concentration is about 10% to 15%, which belongs to the category of middle and high-grade perfume. Its fragrance is stronger and more lasting than eau de toilette, which can last for about 5 hours. I have several girlfriends who especially like light essence, probably because they like its high sense. But for me, the price of light essence is a little hesitant, considering the affordability of wallet!

Finally, the concentration of Parfum is the highest, generally between 15%-30%, which can last for 5-7 hours. Really super endurance! But it is also the most expensive, usually the first choice among high-end perfumes. I only dare to buy the essence of small bottles, after all, I accidentally overspent! Remember, a little essence is enough, you don't need to spray more. As long as it is gently sprayed on the key parts of the wrist and neck, its fragrance will last for a long time. The richness of essence is very strong, so don't be confused by the price of perfume. Controlling dosage is the key!

Second, persistence and fragrance retention When we talk about the durability and fragrance retention time of perfume, we mean the length of time that the fragrance of perfume can last.

First of all, Parfum with the highest fragrance concentration is 15% to 30%, which can be said to be a "lasting moisturizing type" in perfume. Its fragrance is super long-lasting, and a spray can last all day! Some brands of perfume are sprayed on, and you can still smell the fragrance when you take a shower the next day. It really lasts! However, Parfum is also the most expensive. It depends on whether your small wallet can be eaten, because it is not good to regret buying it on impulse. But if you want to have a lasting and elegant fragrance on important occasions, and you are not afraid to spend money, Parfum is definitely the best choice! Then the perfume. The concentration of essence is about 10% to 20%, which is lower than Parfum, so the fragrance is softer and fresher. Its fragrance can last for several hours, which is a good choice! Suitable for work and study, can keep refreshed. The price of perfume is also slightly lower than perfume, which is more close to the people.

Let's talk about eau de toilette and cologne with low essence concentration. Their essence concentration is usually only 5% to 15%. It can be said that it is a "short-acting type" in perfume. The fragrance is weak and can only last for a few hours. But if you like the fresh and natural feeling, these two models are also very good! Suitable for sports and leisure. The price is also very close to the people, which is very suitable for affordable petty bourgeoisie.

Therefore, girls who want to smell longer choose perfume or perfume; If you like freshness, it is good to go to eau de toilette and cologne! Be sure to choose the most suitable perfume type according to your own preferences and usage occasions!

However, it should be noted that although the perfume with higher essence concentration lasts for a long time, its alcohol content is low and its diffusibility may be slightly worse. This means that the fragrance of perfume may not spread as fast as perfume with high alcohol content, but it is more delicate and intimate. Therefore, the durability and fragrance retention time of perfume depend on the concentration of essence. The higher the concentration of essence, the longer the durability.

Also, different perfumes will be different because of the formula, the choice of spices, and individual physical differences. Therefore, when choosing perfume, I usually try it, which is very important.

Third, the fragrance of perfume is a way to describe the smell characteristics of perfume, which is usually divided into three levels: top tone, middle tone and tone.

Pre-adjustment: Pre-adjustment is like the "prelude" of perfume, which allows you to smell the fragrance at the first time. It is like a "prelude" to perfume, which will evaporate immediately, but the duration is very short, maybe only a few minutes. The top notes are usually made up of some fresh and pleasant spices. First impressions must be "bright"! Such as citrus, lime, mint, etc. Catch your attention at the first time.

Midtone: Midtone is the "protagonist" of perfume, which can best reflect the characteristics of perfume. After the front bond is faded, the middle bond will gradually appear, which is about 10 minutes to 1 hour. The fragrance of the middle tone is the most prominent and lasting, and it is the soul of perfume. The middle note may be composed of floral fragrance, woody fragrance and fruity fragrance, which makes people feel the true style of perfume.

Post-tune: Post-tune is like the "finale" of perfume! Use some lasting spices in the aftertaste to make the taste of perfume last longer. It may not be obvious, but it plays a role in "fixing" the front alto. Aftertone is the key to make perfume last forever! Let people feel the fragrance of perfume after the disappearance of the front alto. It is simply the "moisturizing cream" of perfume!

Therefore, the opening of the former tune, the protagonist of the middle tune and the finale of the latter tune can cooperate tacitly to interpret the perfume movement of the dispatched people! Remember to experience the effects of various parts when choosing perfume!

These are the common terms of perfume. Knowing these meanings, you can choose a perfume that suits you better!
