Well it must be my body chemistry, not my nose. Others cannot smell it on me shortly after I apply it. I seem to be alone in this, so that is great for the rest of you WENners who are able to enjoy the scent for a long time. 😀

I got my 613 EDP today!! I love it! I haven't had it on long enough to tell if it has goo staying power, but I love the scent. It smells like the EDT, but I smell more lemon in this one. It is a better balance of vanilla a lemon. The EDT was a little heavier with vanilla. I also smell just a hint of floral. This one smells more feminine than the EDT. I like the EDP scent better. So far, this is a keeper. I think I will give my EDT to my daughter. She is 11 and the EDT will be a light scent for her. I will post again about the staying power.

I am sorry to say that I sent my 613 EDP back. I already have the EDT. I loved that the scent of the EDP is stronger than the EDT, but I didn't find that the EDP lasted any longer than the EDT. So, I sent it back because I couldn't justify spending the money when I already have the EDT. The scent did not last much longer on me. This is a pretty light scent. It is not an "in your face" type of parfum scent. I tend to like the stronger scents I guess. I'm hoping that the mandarin Italian fig fragrance will be much stronger/noticeable. I am also curious about the fall Tuscan pear fragrance, but it is a light scent in the cc, so I'm not sure.

@Hilary77 I'm glad I saw your review. As much as I love the scent of 613, I can't justify spending any $$ on a fragrance that doesn't last. I still have the 613 EDT and it lasts about 10-15 minutes on me 😔
Like you, I want a fragrance that lasts throughout the day. There are plenty of other options that do, so I'm going to skip Wen fragrances for now. Although, I really like the scent of SHL......might cave on that one!

The EDp lasted a little longer than the EDT, but not enough for me to justify having both right now. I may repurchase when my EDT is gone because I like the scent. If I repurchase, I will get the EDP because it is better than the EDT, but it is not a drastic difference like I was hoping for it to be. I think it's a great scent, though. I still hope Chaz will kick up his fragrances even more in the future. However, I know a lot of people like the lighter scents, so he can't please everyone.

@Hilary77 Yeah, I think we're SOL with him creating an even stronger fragrance 😔 I've heard him mention several times that he's very sensitive to fragrances, so he'll probably err on the side of lighter scents/formulations. Like you said, it's a great option for those who like lighter scents.
I have two close family members who are very sensitive to fragrances (they can easily trigger migraines), so I'm cautious about what I wear when I know I'm going to be around them (i.e. no FAS as a leave in 😄) I just knew that they would love the 613 EDT, so I wore it one day when I went to visit. They couldn't even smell it......within 30 minutes it had worn off to the point that their sensitive noses couldn't detect it 😁
I have already several fragrances that I love (and I few more that I have my eye on), so this is an easy pass for me.
I suppose I should thank Chaz for keeping my wallet safe this visit......no 613 EDP, no gallons, no fall ancillary products......my UPS man is getting a break this weekend!

@DoxieMomma that's an excellent point. I had forgotten how sensitive Chaz is to scents.
That said, this is the man who created the wonderful Fall Apple Spice (FAS) which is able to penetrate skyscrapers upon opening!!

@bebe777 Yeah, seems like a total contradiction, right?? He must've had a head cold during FAS testing.......either that, or he really likes maple syrup! I'm just happy that we have a chance to stock up on it before it disappears.
If it weren't for FAS, I'd be done with seasonals until next spring, but, alas, a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do 😃
