Aftershave / Eue de toilette

[matt_london]

Whats the difference? Thanks.

aftershave will have a higher percentage of perfume concentrates than an eau de toilette and will therefore be longer lasting, but also more expensive.

Eau de toilette has around 1-6% perfume concentrates. This makes for a light scent that doesn't linger as long as the more intense versions. It was originally intended to be a refreshing body splash to help people wake up in the morning.

Eau de toilette can give you a headache when you put it on - if the seat falls down!!!

I think its the other way round dot.hawkes. Aftershave is for just that, after you shave where as eu de toilette is a more concentrated fragrance and is not for the face but the neck/wrists (as with a ladies fragrance) and is more expensive then aftershave.

No, i'm with dot.hawkes. EdT is the weaker version.
