What is the difference between eau de parfum and eau de toilette?

Asked a year ago
Eau de parfum and eau de toilette are both popular fragrance types, but they differ in concentration and longevity. Eau de parfum has a higher concentration of essential oils, making it more potent and longer-lasting on the skin. It typically contains 15-20% of fragrance oils, providing a strong and pronounced scent that lingers for hours. On the other hand, eau de toilette has a lower concentration, usually around 5-15% of fragrance oils, resulting in a lighter and more subtle aroma. While eau de toilette may not last as long as eau de parfum, it is often worn for its refreshing and daily wear-friendly nature. The choice between the two ultimately depends on personal preference and desired intensity of fragrance.
