Most voters pick spring, summer and autumn; few choose winter. It is worn for leisure, daily use and the office. Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate. Most voters find it masculine, and some call it modern.
Bergamot and jasmine pull the scent towards a fresh, floral direction. Vetiver and patchouli lay an earthy, woody base, while Akigalawood® and leather add a spicy, leathery touch. The green, citrusy feel runs through the whole scent.
