How do you get to know the world of women's perfumes?
Perfumes are differentiated according to the percentage of perfume components, which determines the projection and durability of the fragrance:
Perfume or extract is the most intense fragrance you can buy. The percentage of fragrance components is usually 20-40%. The projection is usually very three-dimensional and the shelf life is very long (8-24 hours).
EDP - Eau de Parfum or perfumed water. The proportion of fragrance components is usually 15-20%. The projection is usually strong to medium and the duration is 4-8 hours.
EDT - Eau de toilette or scented water. The proportion of fragrances is 10-15%. The projection is low to medium and the duration is around 2-4 hours.
EDC - Eau de Cologne or cologne. The proportion of fragrances is 3-10%. The projection is generally low and the duration is around 1-2 hours.
The history of Penhaligon's: From barbershop to exclusive perfumes
The company started as a barber shop but soon focused on perfumes. Hammam Bouquet, the first fragrance introduced in 1872, was inspired by Turkish baths and offered a unique blend of citrus notes, spices and woods. One of the most popular fragrances is Blenheim Bouquet, created in 1902 at the request of the Duke of Marlborough at Blenheim Palace, which set itself apart from the floral trends of the time. Although the shop on Jermyn Street was destroyed during the Second World War in 1941, Penhaligon's fragrances survived and the firm was awarded a Royal Warrant by the Duke of Edinburgh in 1956.
