Is Signature Blend long lasting?
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. Guerlain Vetiver Guerlain and Prada Amber last longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like leather and musk are the part that stays longest on the skin.

The best time of year to wear it is spring. It is less suited to winter. Ranked by season: spring, summer, fall and winter. Its fresh smell feels good on warm days.
Signature Blend price and value
The usual price in Europe is about €40. That puts it in the middle price range. It costs less than Guerlain Vetiver Guerlain and Prada Amber.
Sillage and projection
Projection is medium: people near you can smell it. Three or four sprays give a good balance. Sospiro Erba Leather spreads further.
