Frequently Asked Questions
Are all the perfumes sold here 100% authentic?
Yes, absolutely! We guarantee that every fragrance we sell is 100% authentic and original. We source our products directly from authorized brands, distributors, and trusted wholesalers.
What is the difference between Eau de Toilette (EDT), Eau de Parfum (EDP), and Parfum?
The difference lies in the concentration of perfume oil, which affects how long the scent lasts:
- Eau de Toilette (EDT): Contains 5-15% perfume oil. It is lighter, fresher, and typically lasts around 3 to 5 hours.
- Eau de Parfum (EDP): Contains 15-20% perfume oil. It is richer and generally lasts anywhere from 5 to 8 hours on the skin.
- Parfum (Extrait de Parfum): Contains 20-30% perfume oil. This is the most concentrated and longest-lasting form, often staying on the skin for up to 24 hours.
How can I make my perfume last longer?
To maximize your fragrance's longevity, apply it directly to your pulse points (wrists, neck, inner elbows, and behind the ears). Hydrated skin holds scent better, so try applying an unscented lotion before spraying. Finally, avoid rubbing your wrists together after applying, as this breaks down the fragrance molecules and causes the top notes to fade faster.
Why does a perfume smell different on me than it does on someone else?
A fragrance interacts uniquely with your personal body chemistry. Factors like your skin's pH level, diet, body temperature, and natural oils can slightly alter how the notes develop, making the scent truly unique to you!
How should I store my perfume to keep it fresh?
Perfumes should be kept away from direct sunlight, heat, and humidity, as these can degrade the fragrance oils over time. The best place to store your perfume is in a cool, dark, and dry place—like a drawer, a closet, or in its original box. Avoid keeping them in the bathroom, where temperature and humidity fluctuate.
What do "Top," "Heart," and "Base" notes mean?
Fragrances are built in three layers:
- Top Notes: The initial, immediate scent you smell when you first spray the perfume. They are usually light and evaporate quickly (within 15-30 minutes).
- Heart (Middle) Notes: The core of the fragrance that emerges once the top notes fade. These form the main character of the perfume.
- Base Notes: The rich, heavy ingredients that linger on your skin for hours after the top and heart notes have evaporated.
Does perfume expire?
While perfumes don't have a strict expiration date like food, they can degrade over time. If stored correctly (away from heat and light), an unopened bottle can last for years. Once opened, most perfumes perform best when used within 3 to 5 years. If the color changes drastically or it smells sour, it may be time to replace it.
Can I return a perfume if I am not satisfied?
We accept returns on unopened, unused products in their original packaging within 30 days of delivery. For hygiene and safety reasons, we cannot accept returns on opened or lightly used fragrances. Please check our full Return Policy page for more details.
