Eau de Toilette and Eau de Cologne are more or less similar in strength, especially in Men's fragrances. After Shave has the lowest concentration of perfume oils.

Your perfume Fragrance will last longer on some people than on others because of differences in our skin types. ie.oily or dry skin types, and in our skin's PH levels. To achieve a longer lasting effect, try layering your fragrance. Using the fragrance over a moisturiser or powder, and then the perfume will usually have a longer lasting effect.
Spray your fragrance low on the body, as well as behind your ears and on your neck, so that the scent rises and it won't fade as quickly. Spraying fragrance on the hair can last all day!
