  3. A gem from this house with the added benefit of being from their budget range. It smells niche without being pretentious… you can tell it’s quality without needing to smell like an eighteenth-century stable. Good longevity and projection. Although many say it’s for autumn/winter, I believe it works all year round, just don’t overdo it in summer or it will become overpowering. One of the best blind buys from this brand.
