Pascal Morabito Balle de Match EDT in detail
Balle de Match EDT is made by Pascal Morabito. Its strength is Eau de Toilette.
Sillage and projection
Projection is strong: people around you will notice it. Two sprays are usually enough. It spreads further than Hugo Boss Boss and Mont Blanc Individuel.
Balle de Match: day or night?
It works better in the day than at night, so it is a good pick for work, school and daily wear. Its aromatic side keeps it clean and easy.
Balle de Match through the year
The best time of year to wear it is spring and fall. It is less suited to summer. Ranked by season: spring, fall, winter and summer. Its fresh smell feels good on warm days.
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. Hugo Boss Boss and Mont Blanc Individuel last longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like cedar and sandalwood are the part that stays longest on the skin.
