Holds up through the day and fades gently toward evening.
People close to you notice, nobody gets overwhelmed.
Sits nicely on a shelf.

Voters rate both its longevity and its sillage as good. With its warm, sweet build it sits more comfortably in cooler weather, and it suits men and women alike. Perfumes with a close profile include Casamorati Bouquet Ideale (Eau de Parfum) and Kilian Angels' Share (Eau de Parfum).
The top opens with cinnamon, cocoa and ginger, a spicy and sweet start. In the heart, patchouli, gaiac wood and papyrus lay a woody ground. The base of cocoa absolute, vanilla and cedarwood leaves it creamy and softly sweet.
