As you might have seen in the acquisitions thread and in my review, today saw the arrival of the first EdT I've ever purchased (I did get a free sample of Three Crowns Rose in a package from Connaught recently), and I have a question that shows my complete lack of experience in this area. I bought a 100 ml spray bottle of Floris Eau de Santal (lovely stuff) from the sale on their website, and used it for the first time after completing my shave this afternoon. I've been reading reviews of it, and general information on EdTs, and realised that I don't know how many applications the average user could reasonably expect to get from that volume of a good-quality EdT.
As a secondary question, which areas do members recommend applying the EdT to, in order that the aroma should be noticeable but subtle and not "in your face" as so many men seem to favour? With the sample of the Three Crowns (which was in a small glass bottle without an atomiser, I was going for sides of neck, chest and wrists, but my family felt that this was slightly OTT with the Santal.
