Day or night?
This is more of an evening scent: it shines at dinners, dates and nights out. Its sweet side feels cosy and rich after dark. For daytime, Mont Blanc Individuel is a lighter match.
Which weather suits it
It is at its best in winter. It is less suited to summer. From best to least suited, the seasons are winter, fall, spring and summer. Its warm smell feels best when the weather is cold.
How long it lasts
Expect about 3 to 6 hours on skin, which is about average for a perfume. As an Eau de Parfum, it has more perfume oil than an Eau de Toilette, which helps it last. Clive Christian Xxi Art Deco Blonde Amber and Mont Blanc Individuel last longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like amber and musk are the part that stays longest on the skin.
Will people notice Back To Black?
Its sillage is medium. People near you can smell it. Three or four sprays give a good balance. Clive Christian Xxi Art Deco Blonde Amber spreads further.
