How perfumes with cloves perform
In our wear tests, perfumes with cloves score 3 out of 10 for longevity on average, which means lighter staying power, so a travel spray is a good idea.
Sillage, the trail a perfume leaves behind you, averages 3 out of 10, which points to a soft, skin close projection.
In hot and humid conditions, the same perfumes average 3 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.

Buying tips for perfumes with cloves
Think about your climate. Heat and humidity shorten how long most perfumes last, so check the hot and humid longevity score before you choose a bottle for daily wear.
Change one thing at a time. If you are building a collection, add one new style at a time so you learn what you actually reach for.
Test before you commit. A perfume smells different on paper, on a friend and on your own skin, and it keeps changing for hours. Try a sample or a small bottle first, and wear it for a full day before you decide.
