Will people notice This Is Him!?
Projection is medium: people near you can smell it. Three or four sprays give a good balance. Clive Christian Xxi Art Deco Blonde Amber and Frederic Malle Portrait Of A Lady spread further.
Longevity on skin
It stays on skin for about 6 to 9 hours, so one spray in the morning can carry you through the day. As an Eau de Toilette, it is lighter than an Eau de Parfum, so it fades sooner. It lasts longer than Tom Ford Oud Wood and Atkinsons Amber Empire. Base notes like sandalwood are the part that stays longest on the skin.
What This Is Him! costs
The usual price in Europe is about €83. That puts it in the middle price range. It costs less than Clive Christian Xxi Art Deco Blonde Amber and Tom Ford Oud Wood.
For work or for evenings
It works better at night than in the day, so it is a good pick for evenings, dinners and going out. Its warm spicy side feels cosy and rich after dark.
