Its longevity and sillage are both rated strong, though from only a few votes. There are no season or occasion votes, so it can't be tied to a particular time of year; it reads as unisex, not leaning to either gender.
It opens with lemon, bergamot, blackcurrant and passion fruit, giving a fresh fruity lift. Peach, cinnamon and magnolia lead the heart. In the base, sandalwood, vanilla and amber settle it into a sweet, warm, resinous finish.
