I have not tried the EDP version of Jaïpur but I do own the EDT. On my skin the EDT version is a fairly quiet fragrance. I mainly wear Jaïpur when Im going out somewhere nice and am all dressed up. During most occasions when I choose to wear Jaïpur homme I want a fairly subtle yet still noticeable fragrance, so the EDT is fine for me. If you plan to wear it on a more casual and common basis and want to be a little more noticed you should defiantly check out the EDP version. Sorry I couldn't be of much help.

It's difficult to tell which is which unless you spray them on each hand. Having done so, I find that the EdT has slightly 'fresher' smelling notes than the EdP. Both are very good though.

First off, Jaipur EDP is one of those fragrances where you won't be saying to yourself " I wish this would project more" or "this fragrance just evaporates on my skin"
It's hugely layered in sweet spices with a 24hr duration. No kidding. I use to own a 50ml bottle of Jaipur EDP. Had I kept it, it would have lasted at least 2yrs with daily use. I found the edp way to robust and heavy. Furthermore, the edp never opened up on my skin. It just stayed hugely concentrated. Althouth, a wonderful scent, it was to aromatic for me.

On the other hand, the EDT is just right. Perfect balance of spice and subtle sweetness. The notes reveal themselves quicker. It can be worn more often in social settings and it's got nice sillage without being weighty.

I don't think the notes are very different. I think it is just the concentration that varies, and, as noted above, the EdT has good lasting power already. I have both, mainly because I think its nice to be able to OD in something that great once in a while! Yes, I do love my JH.
