The main difference between Eau de Parfum, Eau de Toilette, and Eau de Cologne lies in the concentration of perfume oils they contain:

Eau de Cologne (EDC): This has the lowest concentration of perfume oils, typically around 2-5%. It's a light, refreshing fragrance that usually lasts for a couple of hours.

Eau de Toilette (EDT): This has a higher concentration of perfume oils, usually between 5-15%. It's a lighter fragrance than Eau de Parfum and typically lasts for 2-4 hours.

Eau de Parfum (EDP): This has the highest concentration of perfume oils, typically between 15-20%. It's a richer, more intense fragrance that can last for 5 hours or more.

Whether you spray perfume on your skin or clothes depends on a few factors, and there's no single "right" answer. Here's a breakdown:

Spraying on Skin:

Pros:

• Allows the perfume to interact with your body's natural oils, creating a unique and personalized scent.
• Pulse points (wrists, neck, behind ears) generate heat, which helps diffuse the fragrance.
• Generally considered the traditional and most effective way to wear perfume.

Cons:

• Can cause skin irritation or allergic reactions, especially for those with sensitive skin.
• May not last as long on dry skin.
• Some ingredients can react negatively to sun exposure, causing discoloration.

Spraying on Clothes:

Pros:

• Fragrance tends to last longer on fabric than on skin.
• Less likely to cause skin irritation.
• Can be a good option for people with sensitive skin.

Cons:

• The perfume's scent may not develop as fully or uniquely as it does on skin.
• Some fabrics can be stained or damaged by perfume, especially delicate materials like silk.
• The scent will be what the perfumer intended, instead of a personalized scent.
