Planning to buy a perfume but there is so much selection, starting from their different category of names which includes -EDP, EDT or body mist etc. Do you know what does it stand for? While, I will say they are just fanciful names to categorised the concentration of fragrances oil in the perfume. The most common type you will find in Singapore will be EDP and EDT. EDP have a higher concentration on oil around 15-20% while an EDT only have 5-15%. Therefore, if the price between both is not more than $10 and the concentration is double, you are better of buying an EDP as it has more fragrance oil which will last longer! As you can see from the above, you will realise that deodorant or body mist have less than 5% of fragrance oil in it so you are basically spending your money buying their packaging. With this new knowledge, it will be easier to pick a perfume off the shelves now. Try our Scent-osa workshop at Imbiah Lookout. or pefume team bonding. Worried about what it is goign to be?
