For work or for evenings
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.
Longevity on skin
It lasts a medium time, about 3 to 6 hours on skin. As an Eau de Parfum, it has more perfume oil than an Eau de Toilette, which helps it last. Guerlain Vetiver Guerlain and Geoffrey Beene Grey Flannel last longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like cedar and oakmoss are the part that stays longest on the skin.
