Platinum Edition for work or evenings
It is easy to wear from morning to evening.
How long Platinum Edition stays on skin
Expect about 3 to 6 hours on skin, which is about average for a perfume. As an Eau de Toilette, it is lighter than an Eau de Parfum, so it fades sooner. Lattafa Velvet Oud and Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme Nuit last longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like white sandalwood and amber are the part that stays longest on the skin.
How far it spreads
Its sillage is medium. People near you can smell it. Three or four sprays give a good balance. Lattafa Velvet Oud and Philipp Plein Parfums Philipp Plein No Limits spread further.
