Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring not far behind. It leans towards evenings and nights out, and it also works for leisure time. Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most votes call it feminine, with classic as the next choice.
It opens with bergamot, Nepalese sichuan pepper and pink pepper, which give a lightly spiced brightness. The heart is floral and powdery, built on iris, jasmine and Bulgarian rose, softened by heliotrope and geranium. The base of sandalwood, vanilla, benzoin and musk turns creamy, resinous and warm. Téo Cabanel Alahine has a close profile.
