perfume/aftershave

Hello All.

I know certain fragrences last longer than others. But can't remember which is which. I bought some Cool Water and only lasts half a day, would like one to last longer but seem to remember there is a difference between the two?

Could anybody help me out?

Thanks :)
Regards,

Money Saver

    If you mean the difference between Eau de Toilette and Eau de Parfum (lasts longer) I don't think Cool Water is available as E d P. Eau de Cologne is light as well.
    Cool Water Fragrance Notes

    Worth playing around on basenotes.net to see if you can find another fragrance with the same notes, then testing it instore.

    Eau de Cologne is the lightest, then EDT then EDP and finally pure parfum is the most concentrated (but very expensive!). If you want a longer lasting fragrance then any form of poison or Samsara stick around for days :O

    I like the perfume Ghost and I also use same body lotion cream so I find that helps to last the day although with the amount of perfume I use at times it takes ages to wear off lol.
