Performance & WearLong, 6–8 hours
Performance & Wear Guide
- Longevity: 6–8 hours on skin.
- Projection: Soft to moderate. A close-range fragrance appropriate for all settings.
- Sillage: Light. Considerate fragrance — won't bother people around you.
- Best Seasons: Spring and summer primarily. The light floral character suits warm, mild weather.
- Occasions: Daily wear, work, casual social settings. Inoffensive in all contexts.
- Application Tips: 4–5 sprays for full effect. Décolletage and wrists work well. Light sillage means generous application is fine.
- Dry-Down Arc: Floral opening softens after the first 30 minutes. The final stage is mostly the base notes — quieter than the opening but persistent.
