Season and Occasion Fit

The Last Day of Summer

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn
Also Works:
Spring Winter

This scent's dense woods, earthy vetiver, and spicy nutmeg evoke the crispness and melancholy of autumn, making it ideal for fall and early winter. It's less suited for heat, as its warmth and depth can feel heavy in summer but comforting in cold seasons.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Office Casual Formal

The moderate projection and elegant woody-spicy character fit best for casual, creative, or slightly formal settings, while its subtlety and sophistication make it appropriate for dates and office wear. Its contemplative mood is less fitting for sporty or highly active occasions.

Vetiver Bourbon

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn

Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and autumn pair best.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its bold and complex nature makes it less suitable for casual or office wear, where it might be too strong for colleagues. However, the deep, sensual dry-down is perfect for intimate dates and special evening events, lending an air of sophisticated mystery when dressed formally.
