Arabian Oud Woody Intense EDP in detail

Which weather suits Woody Intense
The best time of year to wear it is fall. It is less suited to summer. Ranked by season: fall, winter, spring and summer.
Sillage and projection
Projection is strong: people around you will notice it. Two sprays are usually enough.
Longevity on skin
It stays on skin for about 6 to 9 hours, so one spray in the morning can carry you through the day. As an Eau de Parfum, it has more perfume oil than an Eau de Toilette, which helps it last. Yves Saint Laurent Kouros lasts longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like musk and patchouli are the part that stays longest on the skin.
For work or for evenings
It works better at night than in the day, so it is a good pick for evenings, dinners and going out. Its warm spicy side feels cosy and rich after dark.
