Sillage and projection
Projection is medium: people near you can smell it. Three or four sprays give a good balance. Jil Sander #4 and Nino Cerruti 1881 spread further.
For work or for evenings
It works better in the day than at night, so it is a good pick for work, school and daily wear. Its herbal side keeps it clean and easy. For evenings, Frederic Malle Portrait Of A Lady has more depth.
