Frequently Asked Questions

Why do some perfumes last longer than others?

The longevity of a perfume is primarily determined by its concentration and the type of ingredients used. Eau de Parfum (EDP) concentrations contain a higher percentage of fragrance oils, typically 15-20%, compared to Eau de Toilette (EDT) or Eau de Cologne (EDC). Additionally, fragrances with heavier base notes like oud, amber, musk, and patchouli tend to evaporate slower, allowing the scent to linger on the skin for extended periods.

How can I make my perfume last even longer?

To maximise your fragrance's staying power, apply it to pulse points such as your wrists, neck, and behind your ears, where the warmth of your body helps to diffuse the scent. Moisturising your skin before application can also help the fragrance adhere better. Layering your scent with matching body lotions or oils from the same range can further enhance its longevity and projection.

What are base notes and why are they important for longevity?

Base notes are the foundational scents that emerge once the top and middle notes have faded. They are typically rich, heavy, and long-lasting, forming the deepest and most enduring part of a fragrance's composition. Ingredients like oud, amber, musk, sandalwood, and vanilla are common base notes. Their molecular structure means they evaporate slowly, anchoring the lighter notes and ensuring the overall scent persists for many hours.
