Giorgio Group Giorgio Candy Musk EDP in detail
Giorgio Candy Musk EDP is made by Giorgio Group. Its strength is Eau de Parfum.
How far it spreads
Its sillage is strong. People around you will notice it. Two sprays are usually enough. It spreads further than Jil Sander Sun.
Giorgio Candy Musk 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. Frederic Malle Portrait Of A Lady and Jil Sander Sun last longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like patchouli and benzoin are the part that stays longest on the skin.
Day or night?
This is more of an evening scent: it shines at dinners, dates and nights out. Its amber side feels cosy and rich after dark.
