What’s the difference between Eau de Parfum and Cologne?
Many people use the terms interchangeably. Cologne is a category of men’s fragrance. But, there are several types of Cologne that are differentiated by level of
pure fragrance oil concentration which corresponds to price and how long the scent lasts. The more concentration, the longer it lasts and performs. Eau de Parfum contains 15-20% scented oil concentration and is one of the highest quality fragrances. You can expect this fragrance to last for over 4-5 hours. Atlantis and Bountiful are both Eau de Parfums. Eau de Toilette contains between 5–15% fragrance concentration, is less expensive than EDP and usually last 2 to 3 hours. Some consider it daywear and EDP as an evening fragrance. Eau de Cologne has a lower fragrance concentration of 2-4% and a higher alcohol content. Therefore, it is less expensive and usually lasts for up to two hours.
What do I do if I accidentally spray Atlantis fragrance in my eyes?
Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists, get medical advice or attention.
Where should I store my Eau de Parfum?
It’s best to store your fragrance at a consistent room temperature, 65-75 degrees F,
away from sunlight. Fragrances can change color or expire over several year especially if exposed to heat, light or oxygen. Finally, because fragrance contains alcohol and can combust, keep it away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames or ignition sources.
What are Scent Notes?
Fragrances have top, mid, and base notes that are arranged in a pyramid shape. Top
notes evaporate first and create the first impression of the perfume. The mid notes, also known as heart notes, make up about 70% of the scent and last the longest. The base notes are the deepest and longest-lasting scents, providing the foundation for the fragrance.

The Atlantis EDP/Bountiful EDP doesn’t last. Did I receive a defective batch? Am I
applying it wrong? Can you replace it?
To keep the scent longer, we would recommend applying the spray to your
"pressure/pulse points," which include your wrists, inner elbows, neck, center of the throat, chest, and behind the knees. These areas emanate the most body heat, which in turn helps the fragrance develop further and become more aromatic over time. Otherwise, you may need to increase the number of sprays used, as a scent's strength can also be heavily dependent on individual body chemistry. In some cases, people may have stronger body chemistry with certain fragrances than others. Other elements that may affect the development of a fragrance's scent notes include temperature, humidity, and any skincare or deodorant products that you might use.
