I am different in that I don't use this primarily as a perfume.. The first one I received came damaged, and I am loathe to waste anything, so I added It to my home made hair and skin balm. It worked out so well and smelled so good that now it is part of my permanent recipe. My balm recipe shares a lot of the same ingredients, so it is a perfect fragrance to mix in. And the best part is that my hair retains the scent for at least a day!
