Nothing is the same after IFRA regulated the Western perfumery in 2017 (I believe it was in 2017) and all good perfumes were watered down. A EDT Before has a better performance than a EDP after. For me the best of the best are the perfume oils (attars), they are not regulated. Then I will always chose an artisan perfumer or a Middle East house because they don't respect these absurd regulations. The old batches of Rasasi are a steal for the quality .If it must be a spray, I will choose An extrait de parfum concentration by an artisan. For instance my last find Mr. Erik Rana from Startup Aromas India is making amazing spray perfumes with extrait de parfum concentration and only natural high quality ingredients. For instance, his Santa Maria Mysore sandalwood perfume is the best of the best and lasts for 10-14 hours on the skin. BTW some of the commercial perfumes are not even meant to be sprayed on the skin, read the ingredients and you will understand. On Etsy you can find some excellent Western artisan perfumers too. Meleg, Rising Phoenix, Skanda etc. If you want to try an affordable attar start will Anthony Marmin.
This short video by Dr . Nikhil about how to apply attars but also spray perfumes is highly recommended: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=alrh88jrLTk
