Longevity on skin

Price and value
The usual price in Europe is about €48. That puts it in the middle price range. It costs less than Amouage Outlands and Amouage Opus Xiv Royal Tobacco.
Guaiac through the year
The best time of year to wear it is spring. It is less suited to summer. Ranked by season: spring, winter, fall and summer.
Sillage and projection
Projection is medium: people near you can smell it. Three or four sprays give a good balance. Amouage Outlands and Rayhaan Terra spread further.
Guaiac: 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 citrus side keeps it clean and easy. For evenings, Amouage Outlands has more depth.
