WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?
EDC, EDT, and EDP are abbreviations commonly found on perfume and cologne labels, referring to different concentrations of fragrance oils in the product:
EDC (Eau de Cologne): This has the lowest concentration of fragrance oils, typically around 2-4%. Eau de Cologne is known for its light and refreshing scent and is often used for casual or daytime wear.
EDT (Eau de Toilette): This has a slightly higher concentration of fragrance oils, usually ranging from 5-15%. Eau de Toilette is a popular choice for everyday use and is suitable for a variety of occasions. It tends to last longer than Eau de Cologne.
EDP (Eau de Parfum): Eau de Parfum has a higher concentration of fragrance oils compared to EDT, typically ranging from 15-20%. As a result, Eau de Parfum tends to last longer on the skin and is often considered more intense. It is commonly used for evening or special occasions.
The choice between EDC, EDT, and EDP depends on personal preference, the desired intensity of the fragrance, and the occasion for which it is intended. If you prefer a lighter scent for daytime use, EDC or EDT may be suitable. For a more intense and longer-lasting fragrance, EDP is often preferred.
