A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
Its fresh, clean and often subtle projection makes it suitable for office wear, though some find it a bit too weak. The bright, casual floral nature makes it perfect for daytime casual wear and summer holidays, with many reviewers explicitly stating they wear it to these events. The lack of significant sillage and projection means it's less suited for formal events where a more impactful scent might be desired.
