Cheap And Expensive Fragrances, These Are The Known Differences

There are indeed so many cheap and expensive fragrances that have been made. All of them come from different brands, unique bottles design, an array of scents choices and many more. Thinking of it really could make most of us wonder certain questions. Why are so many different categories of fragrances? What are some of the differences?

To solve those questions, this video posted on YouTube beholds all the answers. By watching it, people could have a better understanding the reasons for the variations of fragrances. This article would help elaborate more about it.

Differences between cheap and expensive fragrances

1) Longevity

This is the main difference people could detect between them. Both of the fragrances have different periods of how long they will stay fragrant. A cheaper fragrance will only last for a few hours while the expensive one can last all day. The cheaper one usually will be the Eau De Toilette one. But, the higher price one will always be the Eau De Parfum.

2) Scent Complexity

For any fragrance, there would be three different stages of notes. The arrangement would be the top, heart and then base notes. The first hour after spraying the fragrance, the top notes would be the most noticeable. After that would come the heart notes and base notes next. Cheap fragrances always only have top notes and sometimes only heart notes.

3) Ingredients

There is not so much of a difference in their ingredients. This is because most fragrances rely mainly on synthetic ingredients. Worth knowing, some of the more expensive fragrances would use natural ingredients when they are made. Some of the natural ingredients used would be oud, jasmine, sandalwood and ambergris.

4) Packaging

Other than using glass bottles, the more expensive fragrances would have more elaborate designs than the cheaper ones. There are differences inbuilt quality for certain areas of the fragrances’ bottles. This is also a huge difference.

5) Branding

Truth be told, branding really influences the price of the fragrances so much. More expensive brands would go all out on their advertisements so that people would believe that they smell luxurious. That is why they achieve higher sales.
