What perfume are you wearing at the moment? (4 Viewers)

[katietheskatie]

but the other day i tried Marc Jacobs: Daisy (the black one. NOT THE WHITE ONE) and i fell in love!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i must get it LOL

so awesome, its easy to kill it though, if you even spray it once directly onto yourself you and everyone around you will probably want to die

OHOHOH I love perfume.
Today I'm in a cute mood so I'm wearing "Romance" by Ralph Lauren.

love this too

my favourite at the moment is the gwen stefani one with the little cartoon doll of her on top, it smells like pina colada or something, so good

Lacoste Style in play, i think its discontinued.

At the moment I'm wearing Fantasy by Britney Spears lol, trying to use it up. I think it smells good but it's more of a winter scent so I'll have to stop wearing it soon and move on.

Never been a big perfume person though...I like it and everything but I don't have a signature scent that I wear or anything like that. If it smells nice I use it. Or just use scented moisturisers and stuff. I do like Stella by Stella McCartney though, that'll be my next one I think.

Yeh sucks when they discontinue your fave one. I was devastated when I found out Gucci Rush 2 was not being sold anymore

It's about the strength of the fragrance I think

EDT = eau de toilette = light, not quite a perfume really, just a subtle scented spray
EDP = eau de parfum (?) = heavier, most perfumes seem to be in this category
Parfum = very strong, go carefully

I think this is right?

As well as the strength, what about how long they last for ?

In answer to strength and lasting questions (doris you were spot on this is just in more detail):

Parfum (generally the most concentrated form you can buy) has 15-25% perfume oil dissolved in alcohol. Any mixture with a lower proportion of oil to alcohol is an eau (water).

Eau Fraiche (Usually 3% or less perfume oil)
Eau de cologne (2 – 5% perfume oil)
Eau de Toilette (4 – 10% perfume oil)
Eau de parfum (8 – 15% perfume oil)
Soie de Parfum (15 – 18% perfume oil)
PARFUM or Perfume (15 – 25% — also sometimes referred to as extract or extrait)
Perfume oil (15-30% perfume oil in an oil rather than alcohol base)

You may also see the term Parfum de Toilette. Most companies use this term to describe a concentration that is either the same as Eau De Parfum, or between Eau De Parfum and Parfum. Other companies use the term to describe an Eau De Toilette concentration.

As far as I can tell about long lasting scents, it depends on the ingredients as much as the strength. You might find this also varies according to the top and base notes from perfume to perfume. According to most perfume websites, perfume wears off from dry skin more quickly. It is recommended that you apply perfume to a patch of skin that has an unscented moisturiser on it:

All other things being equal, perfumes evaporate more rapidly from dry skin, so the best way to make fragrance last longer is to use a relatively heavy body lotion or cream. Some people like to buy the “matching” cream for their fragrance, but you can also use an unscented cream like Cetaphil, or try petroleum jelly or jojoba oil. You might also try a light mist to your hair, which is said to hold scent longer than skin."
