Also Works:
Office Casual

Its blend of leathery warmth and subtle spice makes it versatile for a range of occasions; however, some report performance issues, meaning it might not be ideal for a long day at the office. The sophisticated, yet slightly playful, nature suits evenings out or more dressed-up casual events. It might be too heavy for sportswear.

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
