So, why do some perfumes last longer than others? Claude Dir, a renowned perfumer and master nose at the international fragrance manufacturer Mane, credits longevity to the construction of a fragrance and the ingredients used. "A perfume is constructed as a poetic blend of natural ingredients and nature-identical raw materials," he says. "The molecular system of ingredients creates a pyramid structure consisting of top, middle, and base notes." He suggests looking out for specific ingredients that contribute to a long-lasting scent, like wood, musk, and resin. "This will establish the base foundation on the skin which will extend the wear for six hours and up," he explains. And keep in mind the oil concentration, too. "Whether a fragrance is an eau de toilette (EDT), eau de parfum (EDP), or parfum will help determine the lasting power based on the fragrance oil concentration percentage," says Linda Levy, president of The Fragrance Foundation. "A higher fragrance oil concentrate can help a consumer distinguish how strong and how long-lasting the fragrance will be on their skin." Parfums or eau de parfums often have over 20 to 25% of fragrance oils, compared to eau de toilettes, which have much lower concentrations of oil. But where you spray your perfume and how you layer it can also help the scent last longer. Dir recommends spraying fragrance on your clothes, instead of pulse points because there will be "no reaction to body chemistry so the scent can last longer." With a base of vanilla from Madagascar paired with fresh notes of lime and coriander, Atelier Cologne Vanille Insensée Pure Perfume is one of our favorite fragrances, and it fits all the criteria of our list.
