The Science of Perfume Longevity
A concise, evidence-based overview of how perfume concentration and chemistry determine lasting power — written for mindful, modern wearers.
Quick fact: Perfume longevity depends on oil concentration, fixatives, skin type, and ambient temperature.
Concentration & Its Effect
Perfume concentration (EDT, EDP, Extrait) shapes both projection and longevity. Extrait and EDP typically contain richer aromatic oils and naturally last longer, while EDTs are lighter and often better for daytime wear.
How Skin Chemistry Influences Scent
Natural skin oils, pH balance, and even diet change how a scent develops. This is why trialing on skin is essential — two people can smell differently wearing the same fragrance.
Practical Tips Backed by Science
- Apply to pulse points where blood flow is near the skin (wrists, behind ears).
- Layer with unscented lotion to increase adherence.
- Store bottles in a cool, dark place to preserve composition.
