 Perfume is the most highly
concentrated form of fragrance. To be termed a true or Real
perfume, a fragrance must contain at least 15% perfume oil. A
typical designer named perfume contains 22% essential oil compared
with only 12% in an eau de parfum, 8% in an eau de toilette, 4% in
a cologne and just 1% in a splash.
The greater the concentration of perfume oil, the richer, the more
sensuous and the longer-lasting the fragrance. Whereas an eau de
toilette requires constant re-application throughout the day, the
scent of a real perfume may be enjoyed for several hours.
d'essense makes only REAL perfume and actually uses 28% fragrance
oils in all its perfumes ranking it among the highest in the
perfume world.

What
are Perfume Notes?
A true perfume has three notes, a TOP Note, a MIDDLE Note and a
BASE Note. Lesser fragrances such as eau de toilettes may not have
all these notes and even if they do, they will not last as long.
The TOP Note
- is the refreshing peak of the fragrance that you smell in
the bottle or you perceive immediately after applying the
fragrance to your skin. The Top Note generally lasts for only
10-15 minutes on your skin then it evaporates.
The MIDDLE Note - is the second stage. It is the fragrance that
combines with your body heat, skin chemistry and natural odor and
acts as the bridge between the Top Note and the Base Note. The
Middle note begins about 10-15 minutes after the perfume is
applied and last for about 30 minutes.
The BASE Note
- is the final and longest lasting expression of a perfume
and develops on the skin about 45 minutes after the perfume is
applied. The Base Note reveals the true personality of a
perfume and blends the Top Note and the Middle Note into a
long-lasting scent that stays with you for several hours |

Why our Perfume is More Affordable than Eau de Toilette
Since our perfumes are made with 28% essential oils, they
last as much as
4 times longer than an eau de toilette. So you
would have to buy 4 ounces of the lesser fragrance to enjoy the
same scent as a single ounce of our perfume, not to mention the
inconvenience of constant reapplication and having to carry your
big bulky bottle along with you. |
