Does En Avion have good staying power compared to modern perfumes?+−
Yes, it is widely recognized for exceptional longevity. Much like higher-concentration modern extracts, it often remains detectable on the skin and clothing for many hours, making it a reliable choice for long events.
Is this a sweet, fruity floral?+−
Not at all. While it contains orange and neroli, they provide a sharp, crisp opening rather than a sugary one. The fragrance is defined by its spicy, resinous, and oriental character, leaning more toward a sophisticated "old-world" elegance than modern gourmand sweetness.
When is the best time of year to wear this fragrance?+−
Because of its dense, resinous base of opoponax and amber, it performs best in cooler weather. Most people prefer wearing it during the fall and winter, as the cold air allows the spicy floral notes to project without becoming overwhelming.
Can this be worn to the office or as a daily scent?+−
While it can be worn daily by those who prefer a bold signature, its profile is generally viewed as more suited for evening wear, business meetings, or formal leisure. It has a commanding presence that fits professional or celebratory environments.
