Its strong projection and sweet, dense profile make it less suitable for the office where subtlety is key. However, its sophisticated and sensual character, combined with excellent longevity, makes it perfect for date nights and formal events. It can work casually in cooler weather but it's too heavy for sport.

About

Opens with an invigorating burst of citrus and lavender, bringing a surprising freshness before settling into its true character. The heart reveals a rich, syrupy honey sweetened with cinnamon, which subtly intertwines with a smoothed-out tobacco leaf. As it dries, creamy vanilla and tonka bean provide a warm, inviting backdrop, making for a luxurious and comforting aroma.
