A closer look at Muelhens Carrera Red EDT
Muelhens is the house behind Carrera Red EDT. It comes as Eau de Toilette.
How long it lasts
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. Mont Blanc Individuel lasts longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like amber and cedar are the part that stays longest on the skin.
Carrera Red price and value
In Europe it costs about €17, depending on the bottle size and the shop. That makes it one of the more affordable picks. It costs less than Mont Blanc Individuel and Gianni Versace Blue Jeans.

Which weather suits it
