A closer look at Lily EDP
Lily EDP carries the name of its own house. Its strength is Eau de Parfum.
Longevity on skin
It lasts a medium time, about 3 to 6 hours on skin. As an Eau de Parfum, it has more perfume oil than an Eau de Toilette, which helps it last. Givenchy Amarige and Parfums Gres Cabotine Variety last longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like vanilla and musk are the part that stays longest on the skin.
When in the day to wear Lily
It works better in the day than at night, so it is a good pick for work, school and daily wear.
Who will like it
The strongest accord is white floral (100%), followed by fruity and powdery. You will probably like it if you enjoy white floral and fruity smells and notes like lily and vanilla. Less obvious notes include pear, gardenia and amber. Perfume fans rate it 3.98 out of 5.
Lily price per bottle size
The usual price in Europe is about €60. That puts it in the middle price range. It costs more than Giorgio Group Giorgio Pink Bloom but less than Givenchy Amarige.
