Perfumes that really last

I think my skin is weirdly porous or something because perfumes never last on me for more than an hour or so. It's not a case of my nose getting used to a regular scent as I have a number of different bottles and never wear the same one more than one a week.

I really want a perfume that can still be detectable by lunchtime. The only ones I've ever found that do this are Chanel no.5, and to a lesser extent, Vivienne Westwood's Boudoir, but I'd like more variety.

Any suggestions for really tenacious scent? I'm pretty open to most smells (with the exception of Angel which I find utterly vile).

Have you tried asking someone else whether they can smell your perfume?
I am going through the phase if looking for 'the one' scent so trying lots. Some of them my colleague (perfume - obsessed too) comments on long after I stopped smelling them on myself.
Baccarat 540
Black Orchid
Jayne Ormande WOMAN
Are the ones that lasted longest on my skin.
