Best season for De Molinard

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. Estée Lauder Private Collection Estee Lauder and Tom Ford Black Orchid last longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like vetiver and incense are the part that stays longest on the skin.
