One satisfied customer said: "I wear this perfume every day for work and have had a lot of people ask what it is as it smells so nice. Good value for money." Another customer has worn it for almost two decades. They said: "An absolute gem of a fragrance! I wear as my work perfume and also everyday fragrance. It's light and flowery but not overpowering which is ideal when working in the NHS. "People comment in this all the time, and because it is EDP it lasts all day! I have been buying this for 17+ years and it never fails to make me feel fab!" However, one buyer wasn't convinced by how long the scent lasted. They said: "This perfume smells quite nice when you spray it, but the scent disappears really quickly, within an hour, and I have a very good sense of smell. "It's very disappointing, especially after reading the reviews. I know this is an inexpensive perfume, but I'd still expect to be able to smell it on me for longer, especially as some of the reviews said the fragrance lasted all day. For me, this was certainly not true." It's worth bearing in mind that how you apply a fragrance can affect how long the scent lingers. It's recommended to spritz perfume onto clean and recently moisturised skin, with at least one spray per pulse point. It's also suggested not to rub your wrists together as this can interfere with the fragrance. Other shoppers did however praise its longevity, with one writing: "Amazing fragrance! It lasts a good number of hours and doesn't wear off quickly. If you love a good floral scent, this is for you!".
