Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. There are no season or occasion votes, so nothing more can be said about when it suits; it reads as a feminine perfume, fresh and sweet.
The top of cardamom, mandarin orange, pink pepper and bergamot is bright and spicy. Bellflower, iris and Ceylon tea in the heart add a powdery floral softness. Vetiver, cedarwood and white musk form a woody, creamy base.
