what is the difference between eau de toilette and cologne?
367198
The main difference between types of fragrance lies in the concentration of essences. The order of highest to lowest concentration is first Perfume, second, Eau de Parfum, third, Eau de Toilette, and fourth Eau de Cologne. With this said....perfume is going to be more expensive, then Eau de Toilette and lastly cologne. The cologne wont be as strong which people usually prefer in the warmer months and the strongest Eau de Toilette is preferred in the winter. There are people who believe there is no difference other than the cost and that would be an incorrect assumption. Hope that helps....this applies to women fragrances as well.

They are different scents.. both smell great but go to a department store first and see which you like better. very similar... light and summery. more sweet than oakey.

Thank you for your email. "Pour Homme" title of the product for men and has nothing to do with condition of a cologne. However, eau de toilette is weaker than eau de parfum, which is the case for women. Hopefully it will help you.

The eau de perfume has more sillage (smells stronger and will last longer) than the eau de toilette.

I have bought the parfume spray and it has it written on the bottom of the bottle. I one time bought the 2.5oz off the same listing thinking it was the parfume spray (1.7oz), when I changed to the larger size it was the cologne. There is a difference in the scent, but both are very nice. The cologne does not last very long and the scent to me is lighter. The parfume scent lingers a long time,which I like alot. So,it could be you thought you bought parfume, and by changing the size you wanted, or looking at the other cologne listing in the smaller size,accidentally got the cologne. I hope this helps.

The bottle of after shave is 75ml and the bottle of cologne is 125ml. Yes, I received mine in a gift package as shown. I can't tell you how many compliments I receive when I wear Joop. Everyone loves it!

I rarely see the perfume now. There is White Shoulders Cologne and there is White Shoulders Eau de Parfum, which I prefer. The Eau de Parfum has slightly longer staying power and the fragrance seems a bit more true to the original formulation. The bottle in the picture you show could be the cologne or Eau de Parfum, they are packaged the same but it will specify on the bottle.

When I purchase from Amazon, whatever product is advertised, I usually find that is what I receive; my last order of this product - (received 8/28/12) - advertised was, "eau de parfum", same box, same size and that it what I received. If the box says it's the toilette, then that is most likely what's in the box. Excellent perfume! whether it's the parfum or the toilette. Off course perfume works in conjunction with your body chemistry. Whenever I use this perrume, I get lots of compliments!

I only have the eau de toilette, and have not tried the parfum recently. The spray bottle that I received in my order is 3.4 fl oz/100 ml.

No difference. It is the same fragrance. I think it depends on where and/or when it is packaged.

I can't answer authoritatively, but I see no reason why not. I don't believe Christian Dior makes different products for different shops. It's certainly the same product I have been using for many years (and buying in major department stores in the past). The packaging is certainly the same. You should note that there is a difference between "eau de toilette" and "cologne." At one time Eau Sauvage was available as both (not sure if it's still the case) and "cologne" is stronger than "eau de toilette" and is also a darker color. This may be the difference others are noting. Personally, I prefer eau de toilette. I can't answer authoritatively, but I see no reason why not.

3.4 Ounce Eau de Parfum Spray and the 3.3 Ounce Eau de Toilette Spray People think its fake because they are ordering a different type than they have previously purchased. Amazon is selling 3.3 oz in de toilette and 3.4 in de perfumeThe differences are simply a matter of the amount or concentration of oils in the fragrance. The highest concentration is in pure perfume (or parfum). Next would be Eau de Parfum, then Eau de Toilette, and finally Eau de Cologne.

Don't know about about edt spray, but I do know that eau fraiche is lighter than eau de cologne. Hope this is helpful.

It was an Eau De Toilette. Once the perfume is finished you can buy the refill bottles.
