Marc Jacobs
Perfume Guide - Perfume House M - Marc Jacobs

Marc Jacobs began his career while he was still a student at Parsons School of Design. In 1995, the first Marc Jacobs store opened in New York's Soho district and since that time, the retail network has expanded to include stores in cities worldwide. His simple and beuatiful skin caressing designs have become synonimous with chic and sophistication and Marc Jacob's specialises in women's and men's fashions, leather goods, shoes, and now - perfume. The beautiful Marc Jacobs empire continues to expand while maintaining its dedication to quality and a genuine love for fashion and the timeless elegance of the fragrance collection simply adds to this brand.

Perfume
This is the extract or extrait of a fragrance and represents the scent in its purest form. This often creates a smooth and round texture, which is hard to achieve with the dilution represented in the other concentrations of fragrance.
EDP
Eau de Parfum or EDP is one of the most popular forms of fragrance. Eau de Parfum contains between seven to fourteen per cent of fragrance oils and perfume elixirs and is the second strongest, and longest lasting means of wearing a fine fragrance.
EDT
Eau de Toilette or EDT is fast becoming the most common means of wearing a fragrance or perfume. EDT’s are not as highly concentrated in oils and elixirs as an EDP or Perfume would be and contain one to three per cent of fragrance oils. This impacts the ability of the fragrance to last and around eighty percent of the oils in an EDT fragrance will evaporate within three hours of application.
EDC
Eau de Cologne’s or EDC’s were first popularised by Napoleon. These fragrances are often constructed in a different manner to the traditional French Model and are formulated in one single burst. As a result of this process, EDC’s or Eau de Colognes last the least amount of time on the skin and can dissolve within a couple of hours. EDC’s should be worn as a invigorating spray.
