Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin, though the small number of ratings means these figures are tentative. It reads cool and clean, suited to men and women alike.
It opens with lemon grass and red mandarin orange for a citrus freshness. The heart of cedarwood, rose, deertongue, vetiver and hay turns green, woody and slightly hay-like. The base of patchouli, sandalwood, oakmoss and vanilla closes it on an earthy, creamy softness.
