Perfume Vs Cologne

Majority of people I have seen or met have often asked the question about which perfume to wear. I did some research work and found out that perfume is for women and cologne is for men. I know you don’t have to get into a research for finding that. But I was never that interested in finding out about colognes and perfumes because I anyways don’t stink naturally. Ok, now why was a perfume invented? Of course, people must have been stinking real badly that led to the discovery of perfumes. Thanks to those people who discovered perfume, we have nice smelling people around.

A perfume is made by mixing varieties of fragrances, some natural and some artificial. Fragrances of flowers and fruits are mixed and concentrated into perfumes. Perfumes are mixed with ethanol, solvents and water. Perfumes have more percentage of essential oils than the colognes. Colognes usually are made of bold fragrances. Colognes are lesser concentrated than perfumes. Perfumes remain active for around 8 to 10 hours on an average but colognes stay for around 4 to 5 hours.

If you want that your perfume or cologne must linger on for a longer duration with your skin, apply a drop on the back of your neck and your wrist. These places of the body have the capacity to hold on to the perfume and spread it within the body because of the pulse rate.

It is essential these days that you wear a deodorant or a perfume or cologne when you move out of the house. Your own body odor is the last thing that you will identify yourself. It has become etiquette to smell good when you meet others. Choosing the right perfume or cologne is very essential depending upon the kind of occasion you are heading for.

Smell good and make others happy!
