What is the difference between Pure Perfume, Eau de Parfum, Eau de Toilette, and Eau de Cologne?

The differences are in the amount or concentration of oils in the
fragrance. The highest concentration is in pure perfume
(or parfum). Next would be Eau de Parfum, then Eau de Toilette,
and finally Eau de Cologne. Some manufacturers make a solid
perfume, solid perfume is as strong as a pure perfume however
it is in a gel-like consistency. Eau De Toilette and Eau De
Cologne are generally interchangeable, especially in Men's
fragrances. After Shave has the least amount of oils. The higher
the concentration the longer your fragrance will last, and the
less you need to apply.

What is the difference between a splash and a spray?

There is absolutely no difference in the fragrance. The difference
is in the method of application only. However, a spray bottle, being sealed all the time, may actually have a longer shelf life.
Making the decision between spray and splash is entirely a
matter of personal preference.

Why do some men wear Cologne, and others prefer to wear After Shave?

After Shave Lotion will usually sting as well as help close the
pores after shaving. After Shave Balm is actually soothing to the
skin. After Shave Gel also soothes the skin, but cools the skin as
well and relieves razor burn.

What do fragrance notes refer to?

Fragrances are comprised of many different scents, these
scents are called "notes." Top notes are very light and last just a
few minutes (5-10 minutes). Middle notes become apparent in
about 15 minutes after application. These can last up to an hour
or more. Bottom notes are the heavier ingredients. These last
the longest, usually for several hours.

How can I keep my fragrance from going bad?

Keep all fragrances in a cool, dry area, and away from windows
as sunlight can unbalance the various ingredients. An opened
bottle should be kept in its box to insure a longer shelf life.
