Abbey Eau De Parfum

Abbey Eau De Parfum by English Laundry is catalogued as a fragrance. An eau de parfum sits in the upper half of the concentration scale: strong enough to carry through a working day, restrained enough to wear in an office. Spray onto pulse points — wrists, the base of the throat, behind the ears — from about 15 cm away, and let it dry instead of rubbing it in. A discounted listing is only a saving if it is the same size and edition as the one beside it. Heat and light are what spoil a fragrance, not age — stored properly, an unopened bottle keeps its character for a long time. Whoever is cheapest today may not be tomorrow, so it is worth looking again before settling on the best deal.
