Head Motion EDT in detail
Motion EDT comes from Head. This one is the Eau de Toilette.
Sillage and projection
Projection is soft: people must be close to smell it. If you want others to notice it, use a few more sprays. Parfums De Marly Haltane and The Spirit Of Dubai Meydan spread further.
Longevity on skin
It fades fairly fast, after about 1 to 3 hours on skin, so you may want to spray it again later. As an Eau de Toilette, it is lighter than an Eau de Parfum, so it fades sooner. Parfums De Marly Haltane and The Spirit Of Dubai Meydan last longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like cedar and dry wood are the part that stays longest on the skin.
For work or for evenings
It works better at night than in the day, so it is a good pick for evenings, dinners and going out. Its warm spicy side feels cosy and rich after dark. For daytime, Parfums De Marly Haltane is a lighter match.
Motion through the year
The best time of year to wear it is winter. It is less suited to summer. Ranked by season: winter, fall, spring and summer.
