Is this fragrance suitable for office wear or is it strictly for evenings?+−
While it has an elegant, story-driven character suited for night outings and business events, the "soft but long-lasting" nature of the scent makes it surprisingly wearable for daily leisure. It projects an air of simplicity and elegance rather than being aggressive or cloying.
How prominent is the fruitiness compared to the floral notes?+−
The raspberry is a key player, providing a sweet, sun-drenched accord that lifts the heavier florals like tuberose and gardenia. However, it remains a floral-creamy scent at its core; the fruit acts more as a brightening agent than a candy-like focal point.
Does the presence of cinnamon and clove make this a "spicy" perfume?+−
No, the spices are used as supporting base notes to add depth and warmth to the vanilla and resins. They provide a subtle hum in the background rather than the sharp, dominant punch found in oriental or gourmand fragrances.
How does the Eau de Parfum concentration perform in terms of longevity?+−
