Fleur De Lilac

According to a Wikipedia article, fragrances are made in the following concentrations: Perfume extract: 20%-40% aromatic compounds Eau de parfum: 10-30% aromatic compounds Eau de toilette: 5-20% aromatic compounds Eau de cologne: 2-5% aromatic compounds The Bud Parfum promotional material refers to all of their scents as 'perfumes', with no indication of potency. Neither the vials nor the receipt referred to what the concentration of the products actually were that I was sampling, which seemed a curious oversight. So, when I received my samples I emailed him with the query as to their concentration: were they edt, edp, or full strength perfume? His reply was that they were 'full strength perfume eau de parfums'. His answer confused the two categories so he immediately lost my confidence. Perhaps Australian perfumers do not follow the traditions established in Europe and used in the rest of the known world. Each of the 5 Bud Parfum scents I have tried smell very nice for a few minutes but do not have any longevity or sillage.

Lilac featured in the name, a clematis in the photo and NO LILAC listed as an ingredient??? Thanks, but I'll stick to Highland Lilac of Rochester and French Lilac by Pacifica, which are TRUE lilac fragrances, as if you're sitting outdoors next to a lilac bush in full bloom. AND, each has great longevity and delicious sillage.
