Other Olfactive Studio perfumes

Longevity on skin
It stays on skin for about 6 to 9 hours, so one spray in the morning can carry you through the day. As an Eau de Parfum, it has more perfume oil than an Eau de Toilette, which helps it last. The Spirit of Dubai Baz unisex and The Spirit Of Dubai Meydan last longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like benzoin and ambergris are the part that stays longest on the skin.
What Ombre Indigo costs
The usual price in Europe is about €86. That puts it in the middle price range. It costs less than The Spirit Of Dubai Meydan and Clive Christian Xxi Art Deco Blonde Amber.
Sillage and projection
Projection is strong: people around you will notice it. Two sprays are usually enough. The Spirit of Dubai Baz unisex spreads further.
Best seasons to wear it
The best time of year to wear it is fall. It is less suited to summer. Ranked by season: fall, winter, spring and summer. Its warm smell feels best when the weather is cold.
Ombre Indigo for work or evenings
