When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office

Its light sillage and generally pleasant, inoffensive fruity-floral profile make it suitable for casual wear and even the office, despite its poor longevity. While some find it flirty for dates, its lack of gravitas and projection limit its suitability for formal events or intense sport.

About

Imagine biting into a perfectly ripe, juicy pear and a handful of sweet red berries, then wandering through a lush, tropical garden. Here, the soft, creamy frangipani and a hint of gardenia intertwine with a surprising aquatic freshness, all settling on a subtle patchouli whisper. It's a sweet, luminous blend that skips the heavy florals for something lighter and more playful.
