Cuir: day or night?
This is more of an evening scent: it shines at dinners, dates and nights out. Its warm spicy side feels cosy and rich after dark. For daytime, Azzaro is a lighter match.
How long it lasts
This is a long lasting scent: expect about 6 to 9 hours on skin. As an Eau de Toilette, it is lighter than an Eau de Parfum, so it fades sooner. Yves Saint Laurent Kouros lasts longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like leather and vetiver are the part that stays longest on the skin.
Which weather suits it
It is at its best in fall. It is less suited to summer. From best to least suited, the seasons are fall, winter, spring and summer. Its warm smell feels best when the weather is cold.
