Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
The fresh aquatic and green floral character shines in spring and summer, evoking cool water and blooming florals, but lacks the depth and warmth for colder months.
Occasions
Its moderate projection and fresh, non-intrusive sillage make it perfect for office and casual use. The bright, watery feel also fits sporty situations but is less ideal for formal evening wear.
Seasons
Lotus-freesia-peony natural spring-summer fit.
Occasions
Office, casual, date - clean polish.
