About Rochas Man EDT

Price and value
The usual price in Europe is about €45. That puts it in the middle price range. It costs more than Mont Blanc Individuel but less than Gisada Ambassador Intense.
When in the day to wear Man
It works better in the day than at night, so it is a good pick for work, school and daily wear. For evenings, Mugler A*Men has more depth.
Man longevity
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 vanilla and amber are the part that stays longest on the skin.
