Ah yes, oil versions tend to last longer and are usually more concentrated. The only thing you lose is sillage, which is the cloud of fragrance that is emitted. As in, if a fragrance had fantastic sillage, then people 5-6 feet away could smell you. Some fragrances have TOO much, like Kouros by Yves Saint Laurent. Good lord. And then some stay close to the skin, and only project 2-3 feet away. This tends to be the case with most oils and Eau de Parfums. I don't mind it though, because I don't wanna be the "cologne guy". So I'd rather they not project than to throw out a huge unavoidable sillage cloud.
