In my experience and I think I also read it somewhere in the forum and on other websites but you lose fitness/conditioning much faster than strength.

And I think you also lose power more quickly than absolute strength.

However, regarding the question I don't think 1-2 weeks would make too much difference if you have been training regularly and are going to be returning back to regular training. Some people even recommend up to a week off every now and then if you've been training intensively.
