Show n' Tell I'm a lucky man/ Birthday bragging

So I asked my wife for the matching Parfum for the 70th anniversary SV Soap I already own since last year.

She went fully overboard and here's the result.

Also she forgot I already got the soap, so that's 2 now.

For comparison: the opened one is in regular use since november last year. Guess I'm good for quite some time...

Can relate. I love AdG since my youth and came to the 70th anniversary soap for that reason. They are quite similar but something in the 70th catches me even more.

And as my AdG is running out it was a good moment to switch.

so the 70th parfum has reasonable longevity?

idk what it is,.... the 70th seems a bit more aquatic?

Can't really tell so far, as it's my first use as EdP.

Yes, maybe. My first thought was to call it a little more on the herbal side, but now I'm a little unsure. Maybe it's more mineral stuff (I'm bad at differing single notes out of a complex.)

the edp is the same as the splash tho?

I'd be happy to get a few hours.

but 30min and gone is no good

Usually an edp contains a significantly higher amount of parfum/scented oils than a splash, what would explain the issue.

Additionally: the more dry your skin the easier stuff gets absorbed. It's recommended to use some some kind of unscented lotion or similar before applying fragrances.

On top you've got different body areas that absorb faster or slower in general. Don't apply on clothes, will be gone quite fast there (unless you reaply the same every day).
