I love love this polish. This is my first orly nail polish. I love the formula and for me it lasted about five days without noteworthy wear (I did two coats over base coat and with a top coat). This color is gorgeous! I'm not the best at describing colors but it's a deep, rich, dusky purple. Inside in low light it's very dark, outside in bright light the purple shows nicely. I love it either way. I have fair skin now that my summer tan is gone and it complements my tone. It doesn't wash me out. I think this would look beautiful on darker skin too though. This seems like a color that would do well on anyone.
