Imagination's bright citrus, fresh green, and airy tea notes make it ideal for spring and summer, while the underlying musky woods and smooth spices allow it to transition into milder fall days. The crisp freshness is less suited to winter's cold, though the clean warmth of the base keeps it from feeling too icy.
