Im very disappointed with silage of all Creed scents so far (except for GIT which can be overwhelming).
Himalaya & MI : people can smell it up to 2-3hrs. Then I have to pu my nose directly on my wrists to smell the rest. This is after 6-7 sprays on "hot spots". I need to come up with a formula of spraying half on the clothes and half on my skin to see how it works.. I have to agree. I'm always so impressed with the opening notes of the Creeds, but on my skin, the majority just fade into thin air. The two exceptions so far for me are Vintage Tabaróme and Jasmin Impératrice Eugénie. The later is a bit 'Madame', so I would never purchase it. But I do plan on scoring a bottle of VT.

Answer:
You can´t say that Creed got no longtivity. Everybody got a different skin. Some got a dry skin, some got a sweaty skin. What kind of weather is today and which climat are you living. What you eatin or drinkin. Do you move a lot or you just sittin in the office.
Bois du Portugal last very long, because it is a more a woody scent.
Also Original Santal last very long, because there is vanilla in the basenote.
For example SMW last on my skin over 8 hours...maybe your nose don´t regconize after 3-4 hours the scent.
You have to test it, before you buy.
Or choose Bond No. 9 (Wall Street or Hamptons)...very long lasting believe me!!

Answer:
CUIR DE RUSSIE..
Now.. this is the one that i wish would have lasted seconds INSTEAD it lasted all day and through the night and thats after a wash!!! Not for me!!

Answer:
Most vintage Creeds have decent longevity on me, especially Vintage Tabarome, Cypres-Musc, and even the fresh Selection Verte and Aubepine Acacia.
But also Vetiver Original, Royal Delight and Fleurs de Bulgarie have some sillage and last forever.
The ones that vanish within few hours are Bois de Cedrat, Baie de Genievre, Royal Water and Acier Aluminium - but as it has been mentioned before, it depends on individual skin chemistry.

Answer:
I can't get any longevity with any Creed. My Wife has the same problem with her Creed's. We both think Creed's are overrated and won't ever purchase any again.

I paid $150 for my MI, and a month or so later its half way gone. 7 sprays per application will do it to ya. I now only use it for sexy nights and am currently looking for something to apply daily.

Answer:
MI has terrible longevity, and lasts a maximum of 1 to 2 hours on me. Its an expensive fragrance, but you can probably double the price when you consider how much you need to use just to smell it after an hour.

Answer:
I have terrible longevity with MI,a shame because i really like it.Best ones for me are BDP & GIT.

Answer:
Bond No. 9 Wall Street have something like M.I. and the longevity is amazing. Try this one. Or you buy Sean John Unforgivable (it is cheaper). I don´t understand why they hate this scent so much. It is ok for a cheaper price than M.I.
I don´t understand why everybody want so much longevity by a scent. It is ok for 6-8 hours.
SMW and M.I. are fresh scents and got of course less longevity than BdP or orginal santal for example...i don´t need a parfum which smells 24 hours...how must be it strong for the first hour, when i got a scent which is so strong...than you have to choose Serge Lutens Scents or Chanel, than you get your longevity.
Or skin is not holdin M.I. ...bad luck...maximum spray (4) and it stays 8 hours...ich can smell it when shower at the evening...
