Longevity and sillage are both rated strong, and most voters pick autumn, followed by spring and winter. Evening is the most named occasion, though daily wear, business and nights out sit close behind.
The opening is a bright citrus of key lime and primofiore lemon. At the heart, cypriol and saffron blossom bring a spicy, earthy edge, and frankincense with cistus absolute settles the base into a warm, woody, slightly sweet resin.
