Are You A Spritzer?

 

We love fragrances. We love to spray them, plug them into electrical outlets, light them, infuse them, dab them, smell them, bathe in them, lather with them, cook with them, hang them in cars, launder, insert into dryer, diffuse them and yada-yada-yada.

Perhaps the #1 use of fragrance for women on a daily basis is perfume (OK, men use it too but not as much). To set the record straight, there are several variations of perfume.

EDP (Eau De Parfum, or perfume): The most concentrated form of the fragrance, Most expensive, use sparingly.

EDT (Eau De Toilette): Leave it to the French to use a "toilet" in the best-selling form. The most popular is a spray, less concentrated than perfume and lasts for hours.

Cologne: Not as concentrated as EDT, most popular version is a splash.

Personally, I use fragrance daily and although the initial burst only lasts a few seconds, I couldn’t imagine not using it. I love most brands and am not loyal to any single one. With more than 1000 new ones launched each year, the typical Spritzer most likely has at least 10-20 different bottles on the counter and rarely uses up all the bottles.

So are your a Spritzer and if so, what is your favorite brands?

Happy Monday!

    I love Armani-Mania and an old one called Joop! I also have Cristobal by Balenciaga but it is not available for retail in the US so I have to order it online.

    I love perfume, especially the heavier scents – which I wear only on special evenings going out. My all-time favorite is the complex vanilla spice of Hypnotic Poison. Runner up: Very Irresistible by Givenchy.

    I just received a new perfume for christmas that I absolutely love…Guess Gold. But, I have to say when I was in FH last, upstairs where the BB items are, I found a perfume that smelled amazing as well! It was a vanilla, spicy type smell. I have to get some!:)
