Which weather suits it
It is at its best in fall. It is less suited to spring. From best to least suited, the seasons are fall, winter, summer and spring. If you need something for spring, Rasasi Hawas Kobra is a better fit. Its warm smell feels best when the weather is cold.
Day or night?
This is more of an evening scent: it shines at dinners, dates and nights out. Its amber side feels cosy and rich after dark. For daytime, Rasasi Hawas Kobra is a lighter match.
Samba Skin longevity
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. Rasasi Hawas Kobra and Hoc Malachite last longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like amber and musk are the part that stays longest on the skin.
