How Perfumes Are Different From Body Sprays?

The way you smell can have a major effect on your personality and the people around you. Just taking a bath every day is not enough if you are someone who sweats a lot or are concerned about your body smell. You will need a little extra help from perfumed products to achieve a good smell. India is currently flooded with hundreds and thousands of perfumed products from various brands coming from local sources as well as international brands. With such a wide option range, it can get a little confusing to choose the right one. Among all the perfumed products, the most popular one is the perfumes and deodorants, both having their fair share of users across the country.

However, these users often wonder about which one of these perfumed products is better than them all or what makes them different from each other. If you are also wondering about this, here are basic reasons that make perfumes and body sprays different from each other,

Perfume essence:

The basic difference between perfume and body spray is the percentage of perfume essence. Every perfumed product contains a base, some fillers and perfume essence which can be water-based, oil-based or gel-based depending on the kind of product one is using. The percentage of perfume essence decides the actual cost of the fragrance product as well as its longevity and sillage. Perfumes contain the highest perfume essence percentage which can vary from 10-20% making them highly aromatic. However, on the other hand the deodorants contain only about 2-5% of perfume essence.

Cost:

The percentage of perfume essence, packaging design, and the quality of the ingredients used to create perfumes or deodorants affect its cost significantly. Perfumes have high perfume essence, created with best quality ingredients and the design of the bottle is also very attractive making them quite expensive as well. On the other hand, deodorants contain less perfume essence, and mostly gaseous ingredients packed in a spray can making it much much cheaper as compared to perfumes.

Longevity:

Perfumes are created for giving higher longevity as well as sillage. In just about 2 sprays, you can get a lasting fragrance of about 8 hours which is certainly not possible with the deodorants. Perfumes are easily absorbed into the skin, holding it in with help of moisturiser. The deodorants, on the other hand, are mostly gas which can start evaporating as soon as it is applied to the body. The perfume essence from the body sprays is not able to be absorbed deep into the pores reducing its lasting for not more than 3-4 hours at the max.

Use :

When it comes to uses, perfumes are there just to give you good smell. However, deodorants can do a lot. Bodysprays are created with different elements and ingredients, which can help in reducing the sweating, keeping body cool and fresh for long time along with providing fragrance.

Depending on all these points, you can easily decide which perfumed product is suitable for your need or budget. You can also try perfume combo packs having perfume bottle as well as a body spray to experience both.
