Q: 

Is there any difference in using smtps instead of smtp ?

Or is it transparent for the application layer ?

I ask this because I'm trying to connect to a smtps and no success (smtp is working fine)

A: 

According to wikipedia it's transparent to the application layer, since its no protocoll and no smtp-extension. It does it job perfectly transparent on the transport layer.
