Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring next; it is chosen mostly for leisure and daily wear, and some also wear it in the evening. Most voters find it feminine.
The top is jasmine, mandarin orange and rhubarb, lively and fruity. The heart moves to rose, patchouli and ginger, turning spicy and powdery. The base of vanilla, benzoin and gingerbread closes it with a gourmand, oriental sweetness. Fragonard Diamant (Eau de Toilette) and Mauboussin Mauboussin have a close profile.
