About This Perfume

This eau de parfum is best in fall and winter and is a daytime scent. Reach for it for casual days. Released in 2017.
Wearers report that it lasts well into the evening, and projects strongly and fills a room.

Prices sit in a serious range, about $193 up to $1,750, with average pricing pegged to the collector tier.
