Performance, Season and Occasion

Estimated longevity: approximately 8–10 hours, depending on concentration, skin chemistry, temperature, humidity, clothing and spray count. EDT is lighter and more breathable for daytime or warm weather; EDP gives the heart and base greater weight and is usually the better choice for long workdays, evenings and cooler conditions. Performance is an estimate rather than a fixed guarantee.

Best suited to autumn and winter. Recommended settings include late dinners, cocktail bars, theatre, formal parties and destination travel. For close-contact offices, public transport, classrooms or restaurants, begin with one or two sprays. For outdoor events or evening wear, add one spray to the chest or back of the neck.

Western Style Pairing

Pair it with black tailoring, velvet, leather, dark silk or a dramatic overcoat. Match the clothing to the scent’s mood rather than over-accessorising.

Who will enjoy it: This profile suits wearers who appreciate oriental / spicy, woody, gourmand / sweet fragrances and prefer a composition with a clear beginning, middle and drydown. It can be worn as a personal signature or rotated within a seasonal fragrance wardrobe.

EDT or EDP?

EDT 50ml US$49 / EDT 100ml US$59: brighter, lighter and easier for casual use, commuting or warmer weather. EDP 50ml US$59 / EDP 100ml US$69: fuller through the heart and drydown, with a richer scent trail for evenings, colder seasons or wearers who prefer more presence.
