  intro: "Hair is a better fragrance diffuser than skin. Every time you move, your hair releases scent into the air around you — which is why a fragrance applied to hair projects differently from one applied to pulse points. The problem with spraying your regular EDP directly onto hair is the alcohol content. High-alcohol formulas dry the hair shaft and can affect colour-treated hair over time. Hair mists are low- or no-alcohol formulas designed to carry fragrance on the hair without the drying effect. They're lighter in concentration than EDPs, which means they project softly rather than as a statement. Below is the full reference: format differences, which hair mist characters pair with which EDPs, application placement, and how to use hair mist as a layering tool rather than a replacement for skin fragrance.",

    body: "A hair mist is a fragrance product formulated with low or no alcohol, typically with conditioning agents, designed to be applied directly to the hair. It carries fragrance without the drying effect of high-alcohol EDPs. The concentration is lower than an EDP — hair mists read more like a soft trail than a statement. They're used to add a fragrance dimension to hair movement, and when layered with a matching or compatible EDP on skin, they create a more complex, surrounding scent experience than either product does alone.",
