Unfortunately it appears to have a rather unpleasant smell after a while and it doesn’t smell the same I’ll say it will last a hour at best

Smells great for the first 30 mins or one hour if you’re lucky then smells like cheap cologne for the next 3 or 4 hours. If they could extend that opening scent and make the dry down a bit less cheap smelling this would be amazing. Glad I also bought blue diamond by Matisse cuz that’s an absolute winner.

As pointed out by another reviewer, this particular fragrance does have a short life and does not project as well. Le Duc from this same house lasts significantly longer and projects better. This is frustrating if expecting to use it for a longer night, so I would recommend it for maybe a movie or dinner date, which are shorter. If expecting a long night out, go with something else. However, I do really enjoy the transitions between note layers.

I love the fragrance but it doesn’t project very well and doesn’t last more than a couple hours

I really like this perfume a lot and that's wath I buy ti again!!
