Season and Occasion Fit

Straight to Heaven

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

The intense woody, spicy and musky character is best suited for cool weather, especially fall and winter, but its freshness from nutmeg and patchouli allows some versatility in spring. It is too rich and intense for most summer days.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its boldness and richness shine on formal evenings or romantic dates and can be a charismatic signature for special occasions. The projection and spicy opulence make it less suited to daytime office or sport environments.

Au Paradis

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

Rum-patchouli-vanilla base is a cold-weather, evening composition with little warm-weather use.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Warm, sensual character suits date nights and relaxed evening wear over daytime formality.
