Choosing a perfume online can feel confusing. This guide explains the labels on the bottle and gives practical tips so your fragrance lasts longer, even in hot weather.
EDP vs EDT: what is the difference?
The main difference is the amount of fragrance oil. Eau de parfum (EDP) usually contains more fragrance oil than eau de toilette (EDT), so it is generally stronger and tends to last longer on the skin. EDT is lighter and is often chosen for daytime and office wear.
How to pick a scent
- Think about when you will wear it: Lighter scents suit daytime and warm weather. Richer, warmer scents suit evenings and cooler months.
- Choose by size: A 100ml bottle gives you more use for daily wear. A smaller bottle is good for trying a new scent.
- Unisex options: If you are buying for yourself and others at home, a unisex fragrance can suit everyone.
How to make perfume last longer
- Apply after a shower on clean, moisturised skin.
- Spray on pulse points such as the wrists, neck and behind the ears.
- Do not rub your wrists together, as this can change how the scent opens.
- Store the bottle away from heat and direct sunlight. In Pakistan's summer, avoid leaving it in a hot car.
