The Truth Behind Fragrance Types – And Why Haz Fragrances Only Offers the Best
When you explore the world of fragrance, you'll often come across terms like Eau de Toilette, Eau de Parfum, Cologne, and Extrait de Parfum. They all represent different strengths—but they are not created equal.
At Haz Fragrances, we believe in offering only the finest. That’s why we specialize exclusively in Extrait de Parfum—the highest-quality, longest-lasting, and most luxurious form of fragrance.
Let’s break down what makes it so special.
What’s the Difference Between Them?
The key difference lies in how much actual fragrance oil is used in each formula. This directly affects how strong the scent is and how long it will last on your skin.
-
Extrait de Parfum (20–40% fragrance oils)
This is the richest and most concentrated form of fragrance. It contains the highest amount of pure perfume oils, giving it incredible depth, power, and longevity. Just a small dab can last 8 to 12 hours or more. It’s luxurious, smooth, and evolves beautifully throughout the day. -
Eau de Parfum (15–20%)
A step down in concentration, Eau de Parfum is strong and suitable for daily wear, lasting around 6 to 8 hours. It’s the most common format for designer fragrances, offering a good balance of strength and wearability—but it's not as intense or long-lasting as an Extrait. -
Eau de Toilette (5–15%)
Lighter and more diluted, Eau de Toilette offers a fresh and short-lived scent that typically lasts 3 to 5 hours. It’s ideal for casual wear or hot climates, but often requires reapplication throughout the day. -
Eau de Cologne (2–5%)
The lightest traditional format, Eau de Cologne provides a subtle scent that fades quickly—usually in 1 to 2 hours. It’s often used for a quick refresh rather than long-lasting fragrance.
Why Extrait de Parfum Is Always the Better Choice
-
Unmatched Longevity
One application of Extrait de Parfum can last all day—and even linger into the next. No need to carry your bottle for touch-ups. -
Richness and Complexity
The higher concentration means more depth, more character, and a smoother scent journey. Each note unfolds slowly and beautifully on the skin. -
Less Product, More Impact
Because of its potency, you need far less product than with other types. A couple of drops can carry you through the entire day. -
Luxury Without the Hefty Price Tag
When original designer or niche brands release Extrait versions, they are almost always the most expensive in the line—often priced well into the hundreds of dollars.
At Haz Fragrances, we deliver that same high-level experience without the luxury markup. You get the power of Extrait, inspired by the world’s most iconic scents, at an accessible price.
Why Haz Fragrances Only Offers Extrait
We don’t do “light” or “watered down.” We don’t believe in fragrances that fade after lunch.
At Haz Fragrances, we choose Extrait de Parfum only—because it’s the only format that delivers the intensity, elegance, and longevity our customers deserve.

Whether you want to make a bold entrance, leave a lasting impression, or simply enjoy a scent that stays with you all day—Extrait de Parfum is the answer.
