Performance notes and sources
Percival
Reports range four-hour failure to ten-hour total with several feet early projection; broad estimate. Editorial estimate from retrieved wearer accounts, not a measured consensus. Performance varies by skin, application and version. Accord ratings were not reassessed.
Profile reviewed
Pierce - 1984
An explicitly identified EDP tester review describes a strong scent and roughly 7–8 hours of wear. Moderate projection is a conservative qualitative estimate, not a measured radius. Wear varies by person, application and bottle; this is not a measured consensus.
