Community take

Yes, if you prefer a delicate, musky scent for everyday wear.

Colette 25 is often described as a soft, musky fragrance with a powdery quality. Users note the prominent iris and citrus notes, which create a fresh yet warm scent profile. It tends to appeal to those who enjoy subtle, elegant fragrances rather than bold or overpowering scents. Many recommend it for spring and summer wear, as well as for casual or office settings. However, some find it too light and fleeting, leading to mixed feelings about its longevity and projection.
