Questions and Answers

Q: How does Francesca Bianchi Under My Skin smell?

A: Under My Skin is an oriental unisex cologne that opens with a vibrant burst of grapefruit and a touch of lavender and other spices. The freshness of the opening quickly melts into the heart of orris root, carnation and rose. As the cologne dries down, the base's warmth and sensuality appear with animalistic leather and castoreum notes. The sweetness of balsam and vanilla lingers, creating something appealing and long-lasting.

Q: Where do you apply Under My Skin?

A: To increase the longevity of the fragrance, spray onto your major pulse points, such as behind your ears, at the base of your neck, on the wrists, behind the knees and in the inner elbows.

Q: What is the fragrance concentration?

A: Francesca Bianchi's Under My Skin cologne is available in an Extrait de Parfum, a higher concentration than Eau de Parfum and Eau de Toilette. The strength of the fragrance means it can last hours longer than the most potent EDP fragrance.

Q: Is it for him or her?

A: Under My Skin cologne by Francesca Bianchi is marketed as a unisex fragrance, meaning it is suitable for men and women. The cologne does lean masculine with richer and earthier base notes, but it tries to balance the more powerful notes with lighter and more feminine ones.

Q: Does Under My Skin cologne last long?

A: Extraits like this unisex cologne typically last 8-12 hours on the skin. The longevity of the fragrance depends on the initial application. The wearer's environment and body chemistry can also affect how long the cologne lasts on the skin. That said, you should be able to apply the cologne once without worrying about reapplication.
