π’ Projection
Low to moderate. It's not a room-filler. Its magic is in its intimate, lingering presence that invites people to come closer.
π¨ Sillage
Intimate to moderate. As an oil, it sits close to the skin, creating a personal scent bubble that extends about an arm's length for the first 2-3 hours before becoming a skin scent. The spray version may project slightly more initially.
