The fragrance is widely regarded as a cold-weather staple, with the majority of enthusiasts recommending it for fall and winter wear due to its warming spice profile.
While it is classified as a spicy oriental, many users find it versatile enough for leisure and evening wear, though it is less frequently reached for during high-summer heat.

Fans of the perfumer, Bertrand Duchaufour, often point to this as a key example of his ability to handle resins and spices with a translucent, wearable touch.
