Its longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, with leisure, daytime and office wear leading the occasions. More voters call it feminine than masculine, though a good share see it as masculine.
It opens with petitgrain, lemon, cardamom and bergamot, fresh with a light spicy edge. The heart of fig, iris and coriander adds a fruity, powdery softness. Musk, benzoin and vetiver dry it down woody and gently sweet. Boadicea the Victorious Energizer and Féraud Féraud Homme have a close profile.
