About Jenny Glow Lime & Basil EDP
Lime & Basil EDP is made by Jenny Glow. Its strength is Eau de Parfum.
Day or night?
This is more of a daytime scent that suits the office and everyday wear. Its citrus 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. Jaguar and Roja Dove Roja Scandal Pour Homme last longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like vetiver and moss are the part that stays longest on the skin.
How far Lime & Basil spreads
Its sillage is medium. People near you can smell it. Three or four sprays give a good balance. Giorgio Armani Acqua di Gio Essenza spreads further.
