Projection is strong: people around you will notice it. Two sprays are usually enough. The Spirit of Dubai Baz unisex spreads further.

How long Pour Homme stays on skin
It stays on skin for about 6 to 9 hours, so one spray in the morning can carry you through the day. Eau de Cologne is the lightest strength, so a shorter wear time is normal. Yves Saint Laurent Kouros and The Spirit of Dubai Baz unisex last longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like patchouli and oakmoss are the part that stays longest on the skin.
