Long lasting perfumes with great projection

Out of the perfumes I own, the ones that have great projection are:
Baccarat Rouge
Le Labo Another 13
Dior Addict
Angel
CK one
L'interdit

I'd love some recommendations for some more long lasting perfumes that other people can actually smell!

Its not about inflicting my perfume on a room of people, but if my husband is sitting next to me, I'd expect him to be able to smell it.
I've bought so many perfumes that I've had to bury my nose into my wrist to try amd smell it. That's on first application too, so no time to become nose blind to it

Exactly the same problem most perfumes just don't stay I can put my wrist under anybody's nose and they can't smell anything after an hour ...alien, black opium, black X's, Angel all seem to last a good few hours.

Quality of perfume is key. Not a designer name. It’s ingredients. Go for a “parfum” and not an EDT. Go for a proper perfume house. Try and avoid synthetics and copies. Get to know if you want sultry, floral, spicy warm or citrus type perfumes. I use somewhere like All Beauty and read reviews.

Or go to a perfume area in a department store and spray away! What’s still there on you a few hours later?
