A closer look at Yanbal Solo EDC
Solo EDC comes from Yanbal. This one is the Eau de Cologne.
How far it spreads
Its sillage is strong. People around you will notice it. Two sprays are usually enough. It spreads further than Initio Parfums Prives Absolute Aphrodisiac and Elizabeth Arden Green Tea.
How long it lasts
This is a long lasting scent: expect about 6 to 9 hours on skin. Eau de Cologne is the lightest strength, so a shorter wear time is normal. It lasts longer than Elizabeth Arden Green Tea and Lattafa Al Dur Al Maknoon. Base notes like leather and musk are the part that stays longest on the skin.
The style of Solo
