A perfume is different from cologne. A perfume contains more essential oils than cologne and is concentrated, that's why it's stronger and even if you apply just a few drops on your pulse, it will last for a day. Cologne has low concentration of essential oils and it has alcohol content, it can be sprayed or splashed. I prefer using colognes specially those that are flowery and fruity scents. I'd like to splash every now and then because I feel very refreshed. Perfumes are just too strong for me. Do you prefer cologne or perfume? Good day!

Actually i don't mind using either of the two as long as i have fragrances that i am using.I would be concern about the brand but not the kind.I always have something that would give me fragrance.I feel like i go out incomplete without it.

I am very choosy with scents. If I smell any scent that does not match my taste... I'd get headache! So if somebody comes near me and I don't like his scent... I'd cover my nose that is for sure. I prefer cologne but the scent must be fruity or flowery just like yours.

I guess it depends for me. I like to use cologne if I go to take a walk or exercising, going outside for some informal activities. But when attending formal events, like wedding ceremonies and parties, meetings, I use perfume instead. I don't know maybe it's just like a habit. But overall, I would choose cologne rather than perfume if I have to pick one. thanks

I prefer perfumes, like the fact that the smell still sticks on you even after long hours, I also like when I take off my clothes and the perfume still lingers there.

Hi djoyce! I always spray my favorite perfume before I leave the house. By the way, I love Hugo Boss energise because of its manly smell exuding independence and confidence. I really love the smell because I feel good about it. When you feel good about yourself, then you'll look good. I prefer using perfumes rather than colognes because perfumes stay longer. Just a spray or two, then you smell good all day long. Stay cool!
