The fragrance is widely recognized for its impressive longevity, often lasting through a full workday and beyond, which is a hallmark of the Montale brand.

Many collectors value this bottle as an alternative for those who want the performance of a niche house but prefer fresh, airy compositions over heavy roses or spices.
