Sillage and projection
Projection is medium: people near you can smell it. Three or four sprays give a good balance.
Black through the year
The best time of year to wear it is spring. It is less suited to winter. Ranked by season: spring, summer, fall and winter. Its fresh smell feels good on warm days.
Longevity on skin
It fades fairly fast, after about 1 to 3 hours on skin, so you may want to spray it again later. As an Eau de Parfum, it has more perfume oil than an Eau de Toilette, which helps it last. Goldfield & Banks Pacific Rock Moss and Ralph Lauren Polo 67 last longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like praline are the part that stays longest on the skin.
When in the day to wear Black
It works better in the day than at night, so it is a good pick for work, school and daily wear. Its aromatic side keeps it clean and easy.
