FAQ - Noir Perfume | Unisex Fragrances

Frequently asked questions

Fragrances are classified by their concentration of fragrance oils. Eau de Parfum (EDP) contains 15-20% fragrance concentration and offers excellent longevity (6-8 hours). Eau de Toilette (EDT) has 5-15% concentration with moderate longevity (4-6 hours). Eau de Cologne contains 2-5% concentration and is lighter and fresher. Perfume/Extrait has the highest concentration (20-30%) and lasts the longest (8+ hours). At Noir.shop, we primarily offer Eau de Parfum for the perfect balance of intensity and wearability.

Fragrance longevity depends on several factors: the concentration level, your skin chemistry, application method, and environmental conditions. Our Eau de Parfum fragrances typically last 6-8 hours on the skin. For extended wear, apply to pulse points (wrists, neck, behind ears) where body heat helps diffuse the scent. Layering with our fragrance body lotion can also enhance longevity. Factors like dry skin, activity level, and temperature may affect how long a fragrance lasts on you personally.

For optimal fragrance performance, apply to pulse points where your skin is warmest: inner wrists, neck, behind ears, inside elbows, and behind knees. These areas help the fragrance develop and project beautifully. Spray from 6-8 inches away for even distribution. Avoid rubbing your wrists together, as this breaks down the fragrance molecules. For a subtle approach, spray in the air and walk through the mist. You can also apply a light mist to your hair or clothing for a longer-lasting effect. Remember, less is more—a few spritzes are more elegant than over-application.

Proper storage preserves your fragrance's quality and longevity. Keep your Noir.shop fragrances in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat, as UV rays and temperature fluctuations can degrade the fragrance oils. The ideal storage temperature is between 15-18°C (59-64°F). Store bottles upright with caps tightly sealed to prevent evaporation. Avoid storing in bathrooms where humidity and temperature changes are frequent. Keep fragrances away from radiators, windowsills, and other heat sources. When stored properly, your fragrance can maintain its quality for several years.
