Longevity
Desert Rider is built for long-lasting wear as a concentrated perfume oil.
Longevity varies per person — skin type (oily skin holds scent longer than dry), climate & humidity (heat boosts projection), what you're wearing (fabric carries fragrance), and your individual body chemistry / scent DNA. The hours shown are a typical range.
Usage & layering
Apply a dab to the pulse points (wrists, behind the ears). Perfume oils are ideal for layering under your main fragrance and for longer wear.
