Day or night?
This is more of a daytime scent that suits the office and everyday wear. Its aromatic side keeps it clean and easy.
How long it lasts
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.
