A closer look at Chanel Pour Monsieur EDP
Pour Monsieur EDP comes from Chanel. This one is the Eau de Parfum.
Pour Monsieur through the year
The best time of year to wear it is spring. It is less suited to fall. Ranked by season: spring, winter, summer and fall. Its fresh smell feels good on warm days.
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 citrus side keeps it clean and easy.

Projection is medium: people near you can smell it. Three or four sprays give a good balance.
Other Chanel perfumes
The house has 44 perfumes here, led by Egoiste, Bleu de Chanel Parfum and Allure Sport.
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. It lasts longer than Gianni Versace Blue Jeans and Pierre Cardin Pour Monsieur. Base notes like haitian vetiver and patchouli are the part that stays longest on the skin.
