Holds up through the day and fades gently toward evening.
Leaves a light trail and stays polite in a crowd.
Sits nicely on a shelf.
The price makes you think, so a small size is a smart start.

It opens fresh and citrusy with black tea and lime. In the heart, lily of the valley, black pepper, cardamom and mandarin orange come forward, and the spicy and green tones pull the scent towards dryness. The base settles into a creamy, woody floor of leather and Mysore sandalwood.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and spring, and it leans towards leisure and evening wear. Votes for masculine and feminine are close, so the scent doesn't read clearly as either. Louis Vuitton Au Hasard and Acqua di Parma Colonia Intensa have a close profile.
