Marfa's heady white florals and significant projection make it a bit much for a conservative office, but its powerful sillage and longevity are ideal for making an impression on a date or at formal events. It can be worn casually too, especially for brunch or spring outings, as noted by reviewers.

About

Marfa opens with a surprising green sharpness that quickly mellows into a velvety embrace of white and yellow florals. Tuberose takes centre stage, creamy and heady, bolstered by the sweet, honeyed warmth of ylang-ylang and orange blossom. As it settles, a smooth, slightly powdery vanilla and tonka bean melt into a woody sandalwood and cedar base, underscored by a clean, lingering musk. Peach and mandarin lend a fleeting, subtle fruitiness to the initial spray.
