Best Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Best Occasions
While some find it strong, many describe it as light and fresh, making it suitable for casual wear and the office. Its elegant floral character also lends itself to dates, though its classic feel might be too 'mature' for some. It's too refined for sport, and not quite grand enough for very formal events despite its sophistication.
