"Mandarin and Bergamot make for a classic opening blast that is very enjoyable, continued it its freshness by a restrained petit grain. A jasmine-hay middle phase settles into an lovely natural oakmoss base, a true fougère with a hint of leather. A typical bright chypre of the era, good for spring, with limited silage, good projection and a very longevity of seven hours." Basenotes Review, R. Baker
