Its reported poor longevity and projection make it unsuitable for anything requiring a presence. The generic, barely-there scent means it might work for very casual, intimate settings where you don't want to make an impression.

About

Opens with a fleeting whisper of citrus and what might politely be called "nectar," though any cherry note is conspicuously absent. The heart promises exotic night-blooming cereus and jasmine, but quickly dissolves into a generic bouquet. The base attempts to ground it with peru balsam and oakmoss, but these too are vague, leading to an indistinct balsamic-amber scent that lacks any real character or impact. It's a soft, forgettable fragrance struggling to make any impression.
