Most voters pick spring and summer, with autumn close behind. It leans towards leisure, work and daily wear. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters read it as masculine, though it is unisex.
The top of tarragon, thyme, rosemary and bergamot is herbal and spicy. Towards the heart, marine notes, cypress and pine needle bring an aquatic, green feel. In the base, oakmoss, vetiver and ambergris settle it into a dry, woody ground. Giardini di Toscana Blu Mare and La Rive Distant Wave have a close profile.
