"Bonsoir" is a greeting used to mean "Hello" in the evening. "Bonne soirée" means "have a good night" and is most often used when taking leave of someone. The latter expression (with its ending "ée") implies duration.

How do you greet in the afternoon in French?

There is no "good afternoon" formula in French to greet people, only one for when you are leaving. As a greeting, it is standard to use "bonjour", until the evening. You will use "bonsoir" then. When you are departing, you can use "bonne journée" (for the whole day ahead), "bon après-midi" for the rest of the afternoon, or "bonsoir / bonne soirée" when leaving in the evening.
