When in the day to wear Ivory Temptation
This is more of an evening scent: it shines at dinners, dates and nights out. Its warm spicy side feels cosy and rich after dark. For daytime, Joop! is a lighter match.
Is Ivory Temptation long lasting?
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.
