    I'm on a quest for a particular type of scent and I'd like to narrow down some choices based on longevity. My longest lasting AS's are from Stirling and WSP, both last 12+ hours. Are there any other brands with longevity to match these?

    Fine Accoutrements & Ginger's Garden both are all day scents.

    I haven't tried them all but Pinaud Clubman, Special Reserve, and The Veg a quite long lasting.

    I bought some Pinaud Special Reserve yesterday and found that the scent didn't last but about 5 hours. That's not too bad but I'm looking for all day scents. It's too bad because I really like the scent of the Pinaud.

    Veg is an all day thing. Time to man up! Have you tried it yet? If not...you know what to do.

    It's still in my closet in the back corner, maybe it's time to try it again. You never know.....

    Yeah. Probably no, but, showers fix it easily. Just cup your hand, pour, Splash a lot on your face. Totally wet your face, then slightly pat or press dry with your towel. Forget you put it on. Own it, it's the only way to try again.

    If it's still in the original plastic bottle get it into glass. Revisit it it again at a later date. I decant all my Pinaud's for maximum heroic enjoyment.

    You are not looking for an aftershave, you are looking for an attar. You can either thank me or curse me, but either way, welcome to the rabbit hole.

    Most common aftershaves and colognes have an attar copy.

    I'd say Clubman Orginal scent goes a long way, but to me it hasn't gone 12.

    @Bama Samurai challenge accepted, Veg applied. Cat pee smell went away pretty quickly initially but it's making a comeback. The jury is still out

    That's what I put on this morning.....about 8:00. Let's see how long it lasts on me.

    Why did Napoleon have to supply his soldiers with Cat Pee. Some morale booster, y'know?

    @PLANofMAN was right, it's a rabbit hole. I've done a little research and it's overwhelming. I'm also interested in his observations.
