Encyclopedia Insights
How is the oil different from the original EDP?+
The oil is more concentrated and has a thicker, more intimate sillage. It lasts much longer on skin, often 10+ hours, but projects less. The musk is more prominent and less floral.
How do I apply an oil-based fragrance?+
Apply to pulse points like wrists, neck, and behind the ears. The oil warms with your skin and develops slowly. Start with a small amount; a little goes a long way.
Is this suitable for summer?+
It's best for cooler weather due to its heavy, musky nature. In high heat, it can become overwhelming. Spring and fall are ideal.
