About Rabanne Paco EDT

Sillage and projection
Projection is medium: people near you can smell it. Three or four sprays give a good balance. Dolce&Gabbana pour Homme 1994 spreads further.
Best season for Paco
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.
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.

Base notes like musk and sandalwood are the part that stays longest on the skin.
