Longevity on skin
It lasts a medium time, about 3 to 6 hours on skin. As an Eau de Toilette, it is lighter than an Eau de Parfum, so it fades sooner. Parfums Gres Cabotine Variety and Guerlain Homme L'Eau Boisee last longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like vetiver are the part that stays longest on the skin.
