Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
With its tea and woody notes, it is best suited to cooler temperatures in spring and fall, providing warmth and comfort.
Occasions
Its moderate projection and soothing accords make it ideal for office wear and intimate dates, while less suitable for athletic or highly formal settings.
Seasons
Best in autumn and winter - the amber, citrus profile suits those conditions, while extremes of heat or cold flatten the lighter composition.
Occasions
Keep it for evening and daily - the amber accord gives presence while the gentle projection keeps it crowd-friendly.
