Its strong projection and long-lasting nature, coupled with rich white floral and powdery accords, make it less suited for an office environment. However, these same characteristics, along with its statement-making presence, mean it shines for evening dates and formal occasions. Reviewers also noted it's perfect for autumn and winter evenings.

About

Opening with a sweet, almost juicy concoction of orange blossom, pear, and mandarin, it quickly introduces a spicy kick from star anise. The heart blossoms into a creamy white floral bouquet dominated by tuberose and ylang-ylang, softened by powdery iris and the subtle sweetness of plum. The base settles into a warm, inviting blend of vanilla and sandalwood, with a hint of cinnamon giving it depth and a cosy, slightly musky finish.
