It's warm, slightly gourmand, and has a suede-like finish that makes it super unforgettable and elegant." —Izzy88

It’s the type of fragrance you have to shower off your body before it goes away. It will stay in your clothing for weeks. That being said, it’s not overpowering if used appropriately. Perfect for those bitter cold winter evenings out with someone special." —SK

Ambiguous is the best descriptor for D.S. & Durga in all the best ways possible. Case in point, Amber Kiso.

One satisfied customer writes: "Amber Kiso is a beautiful scent and has incredible longevity. I can smell it on my hair and clothing for DAYS after I apply it! It’s definitely a masculine scent (although I’m a woman and like to wear it). I’d say it smells exactly like a leather jacket and lingering incense. Also has some of the woody/boozy notes you like too." —violet_ends

It's hard to go wrong with any Diptyque fragrance.L'Eau Papier transforms over time to become more niche to its wearer. At its core, it's a lighter woody floral, with a blend of white musks that carry through even as other notes of blonde woods, mimosa, and an unexpected rice steam accord become more prominent. It's not a heavy scent, but its staying power isn't beholden to its density.

• Notes: white musks, mimosa, blonde woods accord, rice steam accord

One satisfied customer writes: "While the sillage of this fragrance isn’t much, the true power of it lies much closer to the body. It’s both warm and clean yet alluring.

The original Mojave Ghost is quite the cult classic among fragrance enthusiasts, this more intense absolu de parfum version is sure to follow suit.

Wearers note that the sillage is much improved from the original as well.

• Notes: ambrette, nesberry, magnolia, sandalwood, violet, cedarwood, musk, amber

One satisfied customer writes: "Mojave Ghost is my favourite Byredo fragrance, but like others, I have been a little frustrated with how long it lasts. So when I saw they had brought out an extrait I had to buy it. It doesn’t disappoint. Still the same clean, slightly woody a little creamy, airy, office-friendly fragrance, but more punchy and enveloping. It arrived today and I can still smell it 6 hours later. Very happy." —Brown Tractor Girl

Woods and florals seem to be the magic combination that gives a long-lasting perfume its staying power. by Kilian's Sacred Woods is proof.

• Notes: magnolia, musk, Bulgarian rose

One satisfied customer writes: "I absolutely love this fragrance. It smells so heavenly. I think initially it smells very musky, but every note meshes perfectly after about 10 minutes of spraying it on/letting it sit. Spraying it in the air to smell doesn't do it any justice." —itsacp
