Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin without filling a room. It suits men and women alike. With few votes behind these impressions, they are best taken loosely.
It opens with the spicy warmth of cardamom and cumin. The heart joins cedarwood and violet leaf into a dry, green freshness. White musk rounds it off at the base. The fresh, floral, resinous and spicy accords all show through.
