Lacoste Challenge comes out of the bottle with citrus notes followed by the woodsy finishing notes. Very nice fragrance...
The projection, sillage, and longevity are average, or perhaps...
This is a surprising fragrance that has an initial attack similar to cedar (but cedar is not listed in the notes).
In the dry-down, It quickly changes to a slightly-powdery, sweet fragrance...
I bought this thinking that it was Versace Pour Homme, I should've remembered better but I didn't. I was bummed, but decided to try it anyways, and it was just so friggin' strong I couldn't...
This fragrance is currently my favorite and has been since I tried it. I'm actually very disappointed that summer is arriving because it doesn't smell like a summer scent so I won't be able to...
Higher temperatures make a frag evaporate faster, so if you are sweating or it's hot, a frag is going to last less time. Also, a frag lasts much longer on clothes, so if by chance you sprayed your clothes, it's going to last longer, though it may not project much.

Keeping the number of sprays the same, the above is correct.
I have pure aloe vera gel mixed in with pure glycerine which I use after shaving from time to time. Would the membership recommend I apply this a few minutes before spraying? I generally spray on my chest, then rub the excess with both my fore-arms. Is it better to allo the excess to stay on the skin rather than almost immediately transferring it? I don't want to be too agressive en parfumant but longevity is a good thing.
As to skin soaking up the oils, Last week I applied Terre Parfum in the morning for the first time and was really sleepy even until the afternoon!
Maybe hydration/hangover levels affect this too?
Longevity works best for me when sprayed on my bodies natural oils. After taking a shower and applying lotion I get half the longevity I would if applying a few hours after a shower giving my body time to produce its own oils.
I was going to say that a bit of your own body chemistry aka a little (fresh) sweat and body oils can add some longevity to a frag. Applying straight after a shower or bath means your pores are all open from the steam and heat. So waiting a while helps till you've cooled a bit. Cold water splashed on would have the same effect of closing the pores, but might be a bit uncomfortable unless it's boiling weather.
