Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin and leaves a quiet trail. Most voters pick spring, with fall and summer following. It leans towards leisure and daily wear. Most voters read it as feminine, though a fair share call it masculine.
Ylang-ylang, star anise and heliotrope open it, with iris at the heart. Bourbon vanilla and ambergris soften the base, adding a gourmand, woody warmth. Green and earthy tones keep the sweetness in check.
