While Finca Vigía is often loved by men, its captivating allure also draws admiration from women. It's designed to be universally appealing, capturing the essence of a bygone era while remaining contemporary.
Fragrances come in various concentrations, and the terminology can often be confusing. Two of the most common classifications are Eau de Parfum (EdP) and Eau de Toilette (EdT).
Finca Vigía is classified as an Eau de Parfum. The word "Parfum" is a genderless term used in the fragrance industry and should not be confused with the word "perfume". Traditionally and culturally speaking, "perfume" and "cologne" have been gendered terms, with cologne often being seen as for men and perfume for women.
Eau de Parfum (EdP): Typically has a concentration between 12% and 18% of fragrance oil. This higher concentration often means that the scent is richer and can be more intricate due to the balance of notes. This heightened concentration ensures that the scent not only envelops you in its aromatic embrace but also lingers longer on the skin (typically 5-8 hours).
Eau de Toilette (EdT): Generally ranges in concentration from 5% to 12%. EdT is lighter and can be fresher, making it ideal for daytime or casual wear. They can evaporate more quickly, usually lasting between 3 to 5 hours. They may require reapplication throughout the day if longevity is a priority.
Our Barberry Coast Eau de Parfums can last anywhere between five to ten hours depending on your skin's chemistry. Some customers have reported our fragrances to last all day.
Apply right after you shower onto dry skin. The shower cleanses your body of any other scents and opens your pores, which helps the scent absorb. Completely dry your skin and then spray.
Hold the spray bottle 3–6 inches from your body. If you hold the bottle any closer you risk over-applying; any further and you will likely under-apply.
Apply cologne to heated areas of your body. The heat helps diffuse the scent throughout the day and allows it to meld with your body chemistry to develop your signature scent. Heated areas include your neck, chest, pulse points, forearms or inner elbows.
Start with a light application. If you are new to using fragrances do not apply the EdP to all of the aforementioned heated body areas. Choose one area and start with one spray. If you notice that your scent fades quickly, choose another area and spray the fragrance there next time you apply. You might want to ask the opinion of a close friend or family member if the application is appropriate, as you can become nose-blind to scents you wear often.
Mistake #1: Spraying the fragrance on your clothing. Spraying cologne directly on your clothes prevents it from mixing with your natural oils, which is what gives it its unique quality. This can also prevent the scent from going through its scent stages, rendering the scent flat and monochrome. Finally, spraying a fragrance directly on clothing can be harmful to some fabrics.
Mistake #2: Spraying a mist cloud and walking through it. While it may seem like this method prevents over-application, it actually renders the cologne almost useless. The majority of your cologne needs to be placed on your body, and applying cologne this way means most of it ends up on the floor.
Mistake #3: Rubbing the fragrance onto the skin. Rubbing the cologne into your skin actually makes the scent fade faster as it breaks the molecular bond in the fragrance. When you spray the fragrance simply dab, but don’t rub.
Previously purchased “Hemingway “ cologne, chose “Finca Vigia “ this order and glad I did as it mirrors Hemingway very well!
Quick shipping
Smells wonderful!! Quick shipping
My husband used the original until the company went of business and it was unavailable- or so we thought.
I did a last ditch search this year for his birthday and ordered the Finca Viga 10 ml to be sure it was the same formula. It was and he was VERY happy to have what he may believe is now his "signature scent."
Barberry Coast has a very nice friend like, personal feel about the purchasing and delivery process, too.
Personally, I love this stuff. If you have never tried Finca Vigía Eau de Parfum cologne, order a small bottle as a starter to see if you absolutely love it.
Amazing amazing amazing smell. I love it and my husband finds it alluring when I wear it and pass by him. Will definitely be buying a bigger bottle!
