Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring next and summer the least favored. Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters read it as feminine, though a fair share see it as masculine.
It opens with sea salt and caramel, and Caribbean tonka bean in the heart softens the sweetness. In the base, sandalwood and Bourbon vanilla leave it woody, powdery and creamy, with a light spicy edge running through.
