I\'ve heard the advantages and disadvantages of spray vs. direct application and skin vs. clothing.

From reading the posts here, it seems like the people applying directly to skin are getting stronger hits, while people spraying clothing are getting milder ones. I know that spraying on clothing makes the mones last a long time, but does it also make it proportionally weaker? Seems to make sense -- quick vs slow release, or is that too simplistic?

I wonder if this is the reason why some people report mild results from Edge, even though the smell of it suggests that it\'s contents are similar to primal and NPA.
