Loved the style and the non traditional colors in this lei. The lei was lovely but also not overly flowery so men still wore it happily. And talk about fresh! This was the hardiest lei we bought (other than the non-cut regular purple strand). Everyone kept the leis around for a few days after our get together, I know some used them as decoration, we put ours back in the refrigerator and enjoyed them every time we opened the door for days and days.
