The fragrance is widely recognized for its high-level performance, with enthusiasts noting that its longevity and sillage are significant enough to withstand humid climates and long days.
While it is inspired by New York in the spring, the community largely favors it for fall and winter wear due to the "punchy" and "creamy" depth of the tobacco, caramel, and amber base.
