- How does Velvet Orchid differ from Black Orchid?
- Velvet Orchid is brighter and sweeter, with honey, rum and orchid up front and less truffle and patchouli. Black Orchid is darker, earthier and more unisex.
- How long does it last?
- Most wearers get six to eight hours on skin and longer on fabric. The vanilla and sandalwood base is the part that lingers.
- Is it too sweet for daytime?
- It is a warm gourmand floral, so it reads best in cool weather or evenings. In heat or at the office, one or two sprays is enough.
- Is it for women only?
- It is marketed as a women's fragrance, but the honey, rum and woods make it wearable by anyone who likes sweet orientals.
- What is in the box?
- A single bottle of Velvet Orchid Eau de Parfum in the 3.3 fl oz size. No travel spray or extras are included.
- Does it come in other sizes?
- Velvet Orchid is also sold in smaller and larger bottles and in a parfum concentration. The scent differs slightly between concentrations.
