Eau de Parfum for women and men: long-lasting fragrances from fruity to spicy

Intense fragrances emphasise the character of their wearer and make a perceptible statement without being too imposing. Whether you wear it every day or for special occasions, Eau de Parfum is the perfect companion. Once you’ve found your fragrance, the people around you will look at you differently – depending on whether the fragrance is invigorating, sensual or fresh.

What’s special about Eau de Parfum?

When it comes to Eau de Parfum and Eau de Toilette the question is less which one is better and more which version is suitable for which occasion. From a technical aspect, the products differ from each other in their concentration, that is to say on the proportion of scents they contain. With 10 to 14 percent, the proportion of perfume oil in Eau de Parfum is up to double that contained in Eau de Toilette.

On the one hand, this means that Eau de Parfum smells distinctly more intense. On the other hand, the fragrance lasts distinctly longer and does not dissipate so quickly. In the daytime, such heavy fragrances can be perceived as too intense. Many women and men feel better wearing a lighter Eau de Toilette to the office. However, the heavier Eau de Parfum works for evening dates or festive occasions and emphasises the individuality of the person without being too obtrusive.

The wide world of fragrances: the perfect Eau de Parfum for every type of person

It's not possible to generalise about which fragrance suits a woman. To identify the right Eau de Parfum , she should always try it out by wearing it. It is not enough to spray the fragrance onto a test strip. Because it only develops its ultimate character in combination with the individual, natural body scent. To find the perfect suitable perfume , we recommend these tips:

• It is always advisable, to test Eau de Parfum on the body (ideally on the pulse areas).
• The first impression is important – but not decisive. The first perceptible top notes dissipate quickly. The heart note remains unmistakable for hours. The fragrance straight after spritzing should therefore play a subordinate role.
• It takes around 15 minutes for all the alcohols to evaporate, then the top note dissipates and the intense heart note remains. Now the wearer experiences the actual character of the fragrance.

As an Eau de Parfum lingers for a long time, the wearer should test it by wearing it throughout an entire day. In this way, she will experience how the fragrance changes throughout the day and how long it lingers.

Floral, citrus or oriental? The best Eau de Parfums for women

Which Eau de Parfum will suit a woman, depends on the type of woman she is and her personal taste. Sweet and floral Eau de Parfums, based on heart notes of magnolia, freesia, pomegranate and similar feminine components are some of the most popular fragrance notes. These are joined by numerous other women’s fragrances with a different effect:

• Woody and oriental: These fragrances seem exotic and impart a warm feeling of well-being. Components like black pepper, incense, myrtle and musk give them their character.
• Citrus fresh: Scents like lemon, ambrox, pink pepper or violet leaf give this Eau de Parfum for women its invigorating and refreshing personality.
• Fruity: citrus oils of bergamot, lemon or orange as well as fragrance notes of rose and jasmine give this Eau de Parfum its fruity note, which so many women prefer.
• Spicy: exotic, intense aromas characterise this Eau de Parfum, supported by components like water lily, cedar, sandalwood or mandarin. Both women and men can wear them.

Tip: Many manufacturers bring out their fragrances as Eau de Parfum and as a lighter toilet water (Eau de Toilette) at the same time. So the wearer can choose between a light scent and a lingering, strong fragrance.

Choose Eau de Parfum for men

Many men prefer Eau de Parfums, which emphasise their masculinity with their astringent and spicy character. They can choose from mysterious fragrances based on tobacco, masculine notes with pinewood and musk or modern Eau de Parfums for men with citrus and fruity components.
