Its moderate projection and longevity make it suitable for office wear without being intrusive. However, the 'old school' vibe and sharp lemon opening might not appeal to everyone on a date, keeping it better for casual daytime use or spring/summer. Some reviewers recommend it even for church or a matinee, lending it a certain flexibility.

About

An aromatic fougère that opens with a vibrant, zesty burst of lemon and bergamot, reminiscent of a crisp, candied sherbet. This sharp citrus then mellows into a heart of clean lavender and delicate violet, softened by neroli. The base settles into a sophisticated, mossy foundation of oakmoss and earthy patchouli, underpinned by a subtle, clean musk.
