Performance notes and sources
CH Men

Four-to-five through eight-to-nine-hour skin reports, with noticeable early projection; Sport excluded. Editorial estimate from retrieved wearer accounts, not a measured consensus. Performance varies by skin, application and version. Accord ratings were not reassessed.

Profile reviewed

Excellus Men

Weak projection is reported. Four-to-five-hour disappearance and a potentially faulty bottle do not justify the proposed two-to-four-hour category. Editorial estimate from retrieved wearer accounts, not a measured consensus. Performance varies by skin, application and version. Accord ratings were not reassessed.
