Eau de Parfum (EDP)
Eau de Parfum - light fragrances for everyday use
Fresh, subtle fragrances for home, body and spaces
Eau de parfum is a versatile choice when you want a pleasant fragrance without too much intensity. This category is particularly appealing to those who like a feeling of cleanliness, freshness and lightness: the scent does not "press" but subtly complements the everyday. Scented water is often chosen both for personal use (for freshness during the day) and for home or textile scenting because it is quick and easy to use. It is the perfect solution when you want to instantly refresh your scent after a shower, after a sport, on a trip or simply to add more cosiness to your environment.
What to know when choosing? Scented water is usually lighter in concentration than perfumed water or eau de toilette, so it can be used more often and often has a fresher, cleaner scent. Such fragrances are usually suitable for people who do not like heavy, sweet compositions, are sensitive to intense perfumes, or are looking for a fragrance for work, study, or everyday use. Scented water is also very handy in the warm season, when you want freshness but not too strong a scent.
In this category you will find scented waters with different aromatic orientations: fresh citrus (lemon, bergamot, grapefruit), floral (rose, jasmine, peony), clean-type (soap, powder, laundry freshness), as well as mildly sweet (vanilla, coconut, light fruit) or with subtle woody and musky notes. When choosing, it is worth considering where you will use the product most. If the aim is to freshen up during the day, citrus, aquatic or green notes are best. If you want to be cosy, soft sweet or musky scents are better. If you're aiming for a 'tidy' impression, clean scents that rarely annoy others are a universal choice.
Use is also simple, but there are a few practical nuances. Scented water can be sprayed on the body, hair (if the product is suitable), clothing or textiles. To make the scent last longer on the skin, use it on moisturised skin - after a body lotion or cream. If you spray on clothes, avoid silk or very light, sensitive fabrics until you are sure that no stains remain. For the home, scented water can be used on curtains, bed linen or upholstered furniture (in moderation) to make the atmosphere more cosy.
Scented water is also great for layering scents: you can start with a light scented water, and if you want, you can capture the scent with eau de toilette or perfumed water. This creates a subtle but complete scent impression. Scented waters are also often chosen as gifts - they are more versatile, lighter and more likely to 'hit the spot' even when you don't know exactly what a person's favourite scent is.
