Concentration decides how a fragrance wears. Extrait de parfum carries the highest share of aromatic oils, eau de parfum sits a step below, and lighter formats such as body mists fade sooner. Solids take a different route, setting the perfume oils in a wax base you warm with a fingertip, with no alcohol and no spray.
Our perfume collection spans extrait de parfum, eau de parfum, eau de cologne, solids and body mists from brands such as Fulton & Roark, Nasomatto, Eight & Bob, Captain Fawcett, Abel and Solid State. We have been building this selection in Canada since 2007, choosing scents across a wide range of price points on how they open, develop and last on skin.

FAQ
