Vanilla Citron through the year
The best time of year to wear it is spring and summer. It is less suited to fall. Ranked by season: spring, summer, winter and fall. Its fresh smell feels good on warm days.
For work or for evenings
It works better in the day than at night, so it is a good pick for work, school and daily wear. Its citrus side keeps it clean and easy.
Price and value
The usual price in Europe is about €63. That puts it in the middle price range. It costs more than Maison Francis Kurkdjian Amyris Homme Extrait de Parfum but less than Chanel Jersey and The Spirit Of Dubai Bahar Spray Perfume.
Longevity on skin
It fades fairly fast, after about 1 to 3 hours on skin, so you may want to spray it again later. Lancôme Variety and Chanel Jersey last longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like amber and musk are the part that stays longest on the skin.
