Nine hours of wear, and what counts begins after the first: the saffron-and-pepper top is an entrance, not the thing being worn. What remains is a rose at 86 doubled by oud at 77, with nothing to sweeten either — amber closes the accord list at 27, and nobody will find a bare rose in here. Two sprays outdoors, one at a table: with projection at 7, a third gets noticed. Evening, date and formal, nothing else; at 52 it speaks no more to one side than the other.
