Winter
Also Works:
Spring
The plush warmth of myrrh, tonka, and vanilla make this ideal for fall and winter, draping the wearer in a cozy, resinous sweetness. It can work in spring on chilly days, but its richness can be cloying in summer heat.

Date
Formal
Also Works:
Office
Casual
Its moderate projection and sensual warmth make it a standout for romantic evenings and formal occasions where an inviting aura is welcome. It can be worn in the office if applied lightly, but feels out of place for sport or intense activity.
