4-6 hours
The projection of Unlimited is initially moderate, extending about 2-3 feet from the skin for the first 60-90 minutes. After this initial burst, it gradually recedes, becoming closer to the skin, sitting within a personal bubble. It develops into a more intimate scent during the dry-down, requiring closer proximity to be detected, which is typical for a fresh EDT designed for daytime wear.
Boss Bottled Unlimited offers a moderate sillage. In its initial hour or two, it projects noticeably within an arm's length, creating a pleasant, fresh aura around the wearer. It's noticeable enough to be detected by those in close proximity without being overwhelming or intrusive, making it ideal for office environments or casual social settings.
