Are

the cover scents in the LS store real concentrated? I'm wondering since it shows them as 4ml. I'm interested in

the Armani Code. I've seen the 2.5oz size on ebay for about $20.

I'm wondering if the cover scent is more

concentrated, and therefore smaller, than the retail scent. Or if it would be more worth it per volume to get the

retail one.

Check the thread down the page a bit

"Roll on ..." It sounds like you don't need very much. On the other side, sprays and alcohol colognes tend to

lose more to evaporation. I'm guessing you will get much better bang for your buck with the cover scents.

I wondered if it the cover

might be more concentrated. I was the difference was between types such as Eau de Toilette and Eau de Cologne.



From the sites I found, it sounds like they usually don't have more than about 5% fragrence oil to then. So that

sounds like 95% base or other things.

That sounds like that 4ml of the cover scent would have much more actual

content to it than 2-3 whole cans of the retail version.

^ Yeah, I'd say they're a

lot more concentrated. Just a little 4" roll lasts for a good 10-12hrs or so. I also like how it's precise, I can

apply exactly where I want, whereas sprays get all over the place.
