This has longevity. I am not sure why others are saying it doesn't last? I spray it on and it lasts for days after. The projection isn't overwhelming, its an up-close scent. It reminds me of expensive soap. I would not consider this a young fragrance, it is for a sophisticated woman. This is a white shirt, jeans, and wet hair smell. I absolutely love it, but for others it may be too soapy.
