How does it perform?
From 36 community ratings, all out of 10.
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 lasts well and projects at a moderate level, leaving a trace without filling the room. Voters lean towards spring and autumn, with summer not far behind. It covers a wide range from daily wear to the office and evenings out, and most votes read it as feminine.
The opening pairs cherry and liquorice for a fruity, lightly spiced start. Rose, orange blossom and heliotrope make up a floral, powdery heart. In the base, tonka bean, vanilla and patchouli sweeten it while the leathery side stays warm in the background.
