How to choose perfumes with bay leaf
When you compare perfumes with bay leaf, look past the name and check the notes, the longevity score and the concentration. Two bottles in the same style can wear very differently.
Do not judge a perfume by the first spray alone. Give it an hour on your skin, then check it again at the end of the day, because the drydown is what people around you will smell most.
How perfumes with bay leaf perform
In our wear tests, perfumes with bay leaf score 8 out of 10 for longevity on average, which means excellent staying power, often lasting from morning into the night.
Sillage, the trail a perfume leaves behind you, averages 7 out of 10, which points to balanced projection that is noticeable but polite.
In hot and humid conditions, the same perfumes average 7 out of 10 for longevity. Heat speeds up evaporation, so expect scents to feel stronger at first and fade sooner than in cool, dry air.
If staying power is your priority, start with Le Labo Thé Noir 29 Perfume: 2015 Unisex Eau de Parfum (8/10).

Buying tips for perfumes with bay leaf
Check the concentration. Most of the perfumes here are EDP. Eau de parfum and parfum usually last longer and cost more than eau de toilette, and each perfume page lists the exact concentration.
Consider a decant or a travel size if the full bottle is expensive. It lets you live with the scent for a week before spending real money.
Moisturise before you spray. Perfume holds far better on hydrated skin, and an unscented lotion can add hours to a scent that otherwise fades quickly.
