Royal Amber longevity
This is a long lasting scent: expect about 6 to 9 hours on skin. As an Eau de Parfum, it has more perfume oil than an Eau de Toilette, which helps it last. The Spirit Of Dubai Meydan lasts longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like amber and benzoin are the part that stays longest on the skin.
Price per bottle size
In Europe it costs about €64, depending on the bottle size and the shop. That puts it in the middle price range. It costs less than The Spirit Of Dubai Meydan and Montale Paris Honey Aoud.
