Day or night?
This is more of a daytime scent that suits the office and everyday wear. Its fresh side keeps it clean and easy.
How far it spreads
Its sillage is medium. People near you can smell it. Three or four sprays give a good balance. Guerlain Jardins De Bagatelle and Houbigant Quelques Fleurs spread further.
Cavatina longevity
Expect about 3 to 6 hours on skin, which is about average for a perfume. As an Eau de Parfum, it has more perfume oil than an Eau de Toilette, which helps it last. Guerlain Jardins De Bagatelle and Houbigant Quelques Fleurs last longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like ambrette (musk mallow) and Australian sandalwood are the part that stays longest on the skin.
Price per bottle size
In Europe it costs about €174, depending on the bottle size and the shop. That puts it on the expensive side. It costs more than Houbigant Quelques Fleurs and Azzaro 9.
