Wear and projection are both very high: the question is not whether it will last, but whether the room will take it. Everything hangs on the dose, and the dose is settled before leaving — at this level, one spray too many cannot be undone. The register is dry and resinous rather than sweet, with incense holding the middle. Evenings, dates, formal dress, in the two cold seasons its sheet allows.
