How many sprays of 1 million do you put on in a day?

Well, i was really hyper this morning, so i shot about 15 sprays all over my body and clothes before i go to school. That was at 7:30, it's now almost 12am and the smell is still strong when i get sweaty or move. Let's not forget that a bunch of my schoolmates almost died because of the smell, i felt so stinky, except i smelled sexy. Haha.

So, how many sprays do you wear for a normal school or work day?

I would only use one spray personally. Most people underestimate it's projection, even later on throughout it's longevity.

Anything more than 2 is barbaric.

I used to wear One Million, when it first came out. 2-3 sprays, would last all day. I don't care much for the scent anymore. I find it very synthetic. Good for young fellows.

For any occasion but work, 3 total. 1 on the chest, 1 on the front of the neck and 1 dabbed between wrists. A guy at work wore 3 sprays to work once and everyone was complaining that it was too strong. Even from a couple feet away. So 1 spray at work.

9 sprays. I like to be loud and clear. Here at Brazil is not a real problem if another person can smell the fragrance that youre wearing.

Is this some kind of inside joke about people wearing more than 2 sprays of this out in public? You guys really dont wear that much cologne, right?

Why do you even wear cologne if you don't anyone to smell you?

+1 No matter what I wear, I do 5 sprays minimum. What's the point of 2 or 3? Wear it with pride!

Hmm I'm not sure if OP is being serious.

But 15 is overkill, actually 1 spray of 1 Million is already overkill

Thing is 1 million has a less than enchanting synthetic dry down. I got a headache from 5 sprays when I wore it.

Usually 2 or 3 max. I wear fragrance so I can smell it and perhaps someone that is close to me or someone I walk past, not to choke people out while I'm in a lecture or a meeting.

I will never understand the 1 or 2 spray method (except with very few Frags, such as TV) I need a good 6 or 7 sprays of most frags to get any kind of performance from them. Maybe I will grow up and realise that the majority of you guys are right and I'm wrong (but I'm 36, so I doubt it lol)

As for 1 Million, probably 4 or 5 for me

New decision: I'm not wearing one million to school or work ever again! Had 4 sprays on me and people around me sneezed alot. Gonna keep it for clubbing. It will be just 1000000 sprays when i go to a club, that's it.

Rookie mistake. Next time just use 2 or 3 max. This is a high radiating fragrance. Gotta be careful as you don't want someone to start a fuss over banning all fragrances at your school.

1 Million is absolutely nuclear to my nose. 1 spray is way enough and yet I'm sure everybody would notice it with that single spray.

I spray this a minimum of 10. Don't be shy on this one! I double it up in the summer time to make sure It projects.
