Two tops for me, but I'm pretty sensitive to the scent
Just a quick one this, I couldnt find any specific answers when I did a search. For those of you that own this (or have sampled it) how many sprays do you use?
I'm just curious as to whether more than one spray is too much? Also whereabouts does everyone apply this for the best results?
Thanks guys.
Two tops for me, but I'm pretty sensitive to the scent
One on either side of the neck and one on each upper forearm. Some times one on the back of the neck.

The Large Print Giveth And The Small Print Taketh Away
3-4 sprays mid-chest. It doesn't last on me plus the sprayer on the bottle isn't the best.
1 spray chest, 2x half sprays inside elbows.
Wanted: a cap of Bvlgari Thé Vert
Wanted: L' Artisan Timbuktu or Fragonard Concerto

I should add that im spraying from testers/decants not the actual tauer bottle
The Large Print Giveth And The Small Print Taketh Away
2 sprays is tops for me from the AT bottle. This scent is strong on my skin.
I'm with Stereotomy. One spray down the front of my shirt, one on the inside of each arm. The power of this stuff is prodigious. I can smell it on my clothes days later. For me it's close to the perfect scent. Unctious, mysterious and indescribably beautiful.
To me, one spray is more than enough! This stuff is tenacious to the absurd, so I think the less you can apply, the better.
Less than one! I have a nicely matured bottle and it really stands out.![]()
top ten: L'Air du Desert Marocain, Black Aoud, Le Labo Rose 31, Bois du Portugal, Incense Rose, Millesime Imperial, Czech & Speake no.88, Terre de Hermes, Musc Ravageur, Nasomatto Duro
Best layers: GIT and TdH, GIT and BA
sample wishlist: Roses Musk
I wore two sprays once and someone across the train from me on the metro commented that it smelled like skunk and incense. Nuff said, one spray is enough.
Favorite Perfumers: Francis Kurkdjian, Jacques Cavallier, Jacques Guerlain
Desert skunk, mind him.![]()

Since I am in coat and tie most days, I spray one wrist and dab it against the other wrist, or spray each wrist and dab it against the back of the other hand. So two sprays there. Then one to each side of my face, trying to hit upper neck and side of face with one spray, then one to the adams apple. Spraying to the chest, well, since my shirt is buttoned and a tie on, no way to smell that scent. I go extra strong then on neck and face, so 3 or 4 sprays. Oh, and not a full blast spray, just spritzing it, pushing it lightly to get a small mist. DO that with pretty much all my colognes, unless I have a polo-type shirt on, then spray each arm.
FOR SALE/SWAP: Pure oud oils: Agarscents Bazaar; Montale Highness Rose [CANADA/USA]
WISHLIST: Creed Windsor, Oriscent Kyara, pure oud oils
1 spray if I'm going to sitting in the room all day, or 2 sprays if I'm going out.
Definitely never more than that.
Wore this today from a sample for the first time ever and MAN is it strong! And it lasts forever. I dabbed it very lightly once on each wrist before going to work... then I decided I didn't want to wear it to work and tried washing it off. No matter. It was with me all night, just the same as if I'd sprayed it full-on.
I can't even imagine how strong this would be coming from an actual spray bottle. The fragrance is good-- I haven't made up my mind enough to review it, but I think my favorite part is very far into the drydown when the vetiver becomes prominent.

For office wear, two on the chest, 1 on the neck
For going out, 2 on the chest, 1 on the neck, 1 on each arm, so 5 total.
Trebor, I can smell you all the way from Texas! Must be a naughty day.
Well, guys, you have to remember that there are additional areas I can apply a fragrance...![]()
I have done 8 - 10 sprays before but it was from the official Tauer sample spray.
The Large Print Giveth And The Small Print Taketh Away
Trebor, love your approach!
I had 4 1/2 sprays the other day and felt fantastic in its glorious sillage. :bounce:
3-4 spritzes (not full sprays) at least an hour before leaving the house, a truly fantastic fragrance.
One spray on the chest and its still around the next morning.

one maximum with this potent elixir
I smell good....as usual.
Current wardrobe:
Guerlain Homme, Kenzo Power, La Nuit de L'homme, DKNY Men, Kenneth Cole Reaction, Z Zegna
"Mini" sprays, mind you...5! One to each side of neck, one back of neck, one chest and one on one upper forearm and then slam the arms together. That is for before going to work. If I go out again that day, one "refresher" spray front of neck. Love this fragrance.
Usually 4. On me it lasts all day, and still smells great many hours later.
Zowee! I don't think I'm old enough for this thread. Partly because I want to ask what the additional areas are. I have traveled the world, sired offspring, laughed and cried, loved and lost, but never learned about the additional areas. Very interested, though.
(Two sprays.)
One spray. People standing six feet away tell me how nice I smell hours later.
