Longevity and projection are both moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, with fall not far behind. It leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office, and about half of voters read it as feminine. It has been discontinued.
Citrus and peach give a fresh, sweet start. In the heart, frangipani, rose and magnolia add a soft floral layer. Amberwood and musk leave a woody, powdery base, with a slightly synthetic edge running through the accords.
