Performance
Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Built on woody, earthy and musky - a composition that sits best in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its powerful oud and strong projection make it less suitable for office wear, where discretion is key. However, its commanding presence and luxurious character are perfectly suited for formal events and evening dates, making a memorable impression.
Seasons
Reach for it across autumn and winter, where the woody signature sits most naturally; outside those months its softer projection thins out faster.
Occasions
This one suits evening and daily settings; the easy, cosy character keeps it versatile for formal rotation too.
