Annayake Pour Lui EDT in detail
Annayake is the house behind Pour Lui EDT. It comes as Eau de Toilette.
How long it lasts
Expect about 3 to 6 hours on skin, which is about average for a perfume. As an Eau de Toilette, it is lighter than an Eau de Parfum, so it fades sooner. Cacharel Eden and Zoologist Perfumes Panda Edition 2017 unisex last longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like hazelnut and coton candy are the part that stays longest on the skin.
How far Pour Lui spreads
Its sillage is medium. People near you can smell it. Three or four sprays give a good balance. Cacharel Eden spreads further.
Which weather suits it
It is at its best in spring. It is less suited to winter. From best to least suited, the seasons are spring, summer, fall and winter. If you need something for winter, Kenzo Aqua Fresh is a better fit.
Is Pour Lui your kind of scent?
The strongest accord is woody (100%), followed by sweet and citrus. You will probably like it if you enjoy woody and sweet smells and notes like bamboo and hazelnut. Less obvious notes include mandarin orange, cotton flower and tonka bean. Perfume fans rate it 3.81 out of 5.
Day or night?
This is more of a daytime scent that suits the office and everyday wear. Its citrus side keeps it clean and easy.
