Most voters pick summer and spring, with daily, leisure and business settings leading. Longevity and sillage are rated weak, so it stays close to the skin. It reads neither clearly masculine nor feminine, as votes split almost evenly between the two.
Petitgrain, bergamot and lavender sit together here. The fresh, citrus side dominates, with a green and floral air, while faint sweet and spicy touches soften the cologne. Memo Paris Zante and Profumum Roma Orangea have a close profile.
