Longevity measures how long a scent lasts on your skin or clothes. A fragrance with 6–8 hours of wear is considered good, while anything over 8 hours stands out. <strong>Sillage refers to the scent trail left behind as you move through a space</strong>.

These two characteristics - longevity and sillage - are separate traits. A fragrance can perform strongly in one area while remaining understated in the other. Nose-blindness happens when you stop noticing your own perfume, even though others around you can still smell it.
