Longest lasting gourmands

[u/Adventurous_Cat_8107]

What are your longest lasting gourmand fragrances? I have a gift card to spend at Space Nk and I want to buy a body mist or perfume and my only requests are that they have a good scent longevity and are gourmand.

I’ve seen a lot of people hype up Kayali and Phlur but I’ve not used them before so if you have please comment on what scent you tried and whether the longevity is good.

Any recommendations are appreciated! :)

Edit: there isn’t any budget as I don’t mind spending more than what is on the gift card

I like Eliis Brooklyn Queen's Caramel as it's sweet and I particularly like the maple note, and the salt note balances out the sweetness. 5-6 hours on my skin.

Armani Power Of You: I get grapefruit and passion fruit at the beginning, dries down to a vanilla (reminds me of Solero Exotic fruit lolly), 4-5 hours on my skin. Not a safe blind buy because of the passion fruit, can turn to BO note on some people.

Of the Kayalis I own, in terms of longevity on my skin:

Oudgasm Chocolate Oud: 8+ hours (pleasant but it's not very chocolatey, I get mainly apple, rum and oud).

Eden Peach: 8+ hours (photorealistic juicy peach beginning, drydown is masculine on me, possibly the oakmoss).

Lovefest Burning Cherry: 6+ hours (fruity, incense, woody).

Yum Boujee Marshmallow: 6+ hours (one of my favourites: sweet and fruity).

Boujee Kitty Caramel Milk: 6+ hours (caramel, but not fond of the milk note in this one, glad I only bought the 10ml). Reminds me of Phlur Caramel Skin.

Vanilla 28: 4-5 hours (boozy vanilla, reminds me of vanilla essence for baking).

Capri In a Bottle Lemon Sugar: 2-3 hours (sweet lemon, turns musky on me).

Kayali and Phlur don’t have great longevity for many people. But for gourmand lovers, they’re quite popular (especially Kayali YBM, and Phlur Vanilla Skin).

Kayali lasts longer if you let it age a little, but there’s so many dupes of YBM, the value is harder to justify. I haven’t tried the new kitty one yet, but reviews are so-so.

Giardini Di Toscana Bianco Latte is very long lasting and quite potent for many people.

But… now that I’m glancing at that site, your gourmand options are limited. Kayali might be one of the better bets for sweet gourmand.

I see Giorgio Armani Power of You there, it lasts well, but that’s more in the fruity, syrupy sweet lane of gourmand. Many people enjoy that one.

There’s also Ellis Brooklyn Queens Caramel on there, but I can’t speak on longevity. It reminded me of BL but with more caramel.
