Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Voters wear it mostly for leisure and daytime, with some choosing it for evenings and nights out. It sits comfortably between masculine and feminine.
The top pairs saffron and bergamot with oud. In the heart, rice, jasmine, cardamom and geranium add a floral, powdery softness. The base of sandalwood, musk, leather and patchouli gives it a woody, resinous, earthy ground.
