Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its fresh, delicate nature and poor longevity make it perfect for casual wear or as an inoffensive office scent, though you'll need to reapply frequently. It's too subtle for formal events or dates where you want to make a lasting impression.

About

Opens with an exhilarating burst of juicy, bitter grapefruit, so real you can almost taste it. This vibrant citrus gradually mellows, allowing a delicate, dewy rose to unfurl, bringing a soft floral elegance. A subtle hint of orange provides a touch of sweetness before it fades into a clean, slightly green whisper.
